Ep. 12 Study: What's Worse—Carbs or Seed Oils? Understanding a High-PUFA Diet—with Dr. Brian Kerley and Matt Quinn
tldr; How you can collapse your mitochondria and cause your heart to rot with commonly-available foods from your supermarket
Introduction
We’re trying something a bit different today. Dr. Brian Kerley and I have found a victim, Matt Quinn. Matt’s a smart guy but he’s not as immersed in these topics as we are, and so he’s going to play our straight man, the every-day guy who can hopefully come to easily-digested conclusions about the papers we discuss.
In our inaugural episode we discuss “Brief Episode of STZ-Induced Hyperglycemia Produces Cardiac Abnormalities in Rats Fed a Diet Rich in N-6 PUFA”.

TL;DR Here's what I am working on:
I run Rebel - a fund that buys distressed SAAS and turns it around - if you want to support share our apps here
I'm in the very early stages of building/buying a regenerative farm. Our food system is beyond broken. Our healthcare system doesn't heal people. If you're interested in the thoughts behind this read this
I've built companies, bought companies and burned companies - if you're looking for pro bono advice or mentoring - tweet/DM me here
In my day job I run a product consulting team at Tanzu Labs - if you have deep pockets and need a team to teach you how to build great software that users love - connect with me here
I have failed at so so so many things - read about them here

I discussed this in a blog post. I won’t be doing this for most of the studies we discuss, but I figured it was handy to start with one where I had already done some work!
Oh man, Tucker, you ruined my life. You and Peter D. I have lamented about it for about 10 years now. Restaurants suck. Most everything in the store sucks. And you suck!
Just kidding. Minimal sunburn risk, happier joints, better weight management, and in the last few years, the realization that carbs don’t bother me anymore! Thanks! Loving the content! And you could post all your old stuff in a big round in order to teach the new people. Your obesity series alone is amazing! New stuff just makes me click right away. Keep up the good work, terrifying is all into good behavior. We need to understand why we avoid seed oils in order to keep doing it.
