136: Brad Marshall - How PUFAs and Vegetable Oils Negatively Impact Health

Author: Dr. Anthony Gustin April 26, 2021 Duration: 2:11:10

Brad Marshall, a molecular biologist and pig farmer who aims to cut down the amount of PUFAs in our meat supply, sits down with Dr. Anthony Gustin to chat about the exact mechanisms at play when we consume harmful vegetable oils.

They dive into how these vegetable oils are sneaking into our systems through our food supply and what happens when they enter our body.

So you'll learn about how they disrupt health on a cellular level and where they wreak havoc once they're there.

You'll also discover the surprising differences between linoleic acid levels in organic and conventionally grown meat, how our fat cells respond to these foreign substances, and what the latest research shows.

Brad also chats about the differences between different fats, such as saturated fat, polyunsaturated fats, and monounsaturated fats and so much more.

If you don't know Brad, he's a jack of all trades. He went to Cornell to study molecular biology and then eventually went off to start his own charcuterie business and opened up several restaurants.

He even branched out into pig farming, started The Croissant Diet, and became a food historian along the way.

He's incredibly knowledgeable in this space, which is why you learn a great deal when you tune into the episode.

Dr. Anthony Gustin operates from a simple yet profound premise: health is our default setting. His The Natural State with Dr. Anthony Gustin is built on the idea that so much of what we call illness or fatigue stems from a mismatch between our biology and the world we've built. This isn't just another health podcast offering quick fixes. Instead, each conversation is a deep, practical exploration of how to construct a life that aligns with our fundamental needs. You'll hear from a carefully selected roster of experts-nutrition scientists, innovative fitness practitioners, and researchers who are redefining their fields. The discussions move beyond surface-level advice to examine the root causes of metabolic dysfunction, low energy, and chronic stress. What makes this podcast particularly valuable is its commitment to translation; complex biochemistry and physiology are broken down into actionable insights you can use immediately. Episodes regularly delve into the nuances of ancestral eating patterns, the science of strength and movement, and the environmental toxins that disrupt our systems. The goal is always clarity and application, providing a roadmap to strip away the noise of modern health trends and rebuild what Dr. Gustin calls a proper human environment. Tune in for thoughtful, evidence-based dialogues that empower you to reclaim the vitality that should be your natural state.
