The Health Benefits of Industrial Seed Oils
raw almonds the raw nuts things like that are very very difficult to break down in their raw form. They actually chelate a lot of the other minerals that are in your gut making it harder to get the proper mineralization So are they unhealthy? No, but we over do a lot of them on keto another thing, you know any kind of processed cheese any stuff like that Sugar alcohols. I don't think we anyone thinks they're healthy, but still need to be cognizant of them just in terms of what they do Yeah, there's a million man. What's worse industrial seed oils or smoking cigarettes? Industrial seed oil.
Today, I am blessed to have a second-time interview with celebrity trainer, entrepreneur, and author, Thomas DeLauer. Thomas was hyper-focused on his business… a successful business at that, but he was afraid to step away or divert in any way towards anything else. As a result, he was overweight. The only thing that getting healthy would do would shift time away from what mattered to him most (money and providing for his family).
He had the hard-wiring to be excellent at both physical performance and business… They could complement each other. He became obsessed with homing in on exactly what made him an excellent businessperson. Thomas applied discipline and knowledge to his health and made some promises to himself. In a rather short amount of time, he went from being 280 lbs to 185 lbs and on the covers of some of the largest health and fitness magazines in the world. Now, he writes for some of the largest fitness publications in the world as an expert in diet, nutrition, and mindset.
Thomas became a coach after he knew that he could provide what was needed to get the world’s best businesspeople the results that they need to be a better spouse, feel better, perform better, and increase their bottom line. The best part is so much of this can be done without dramatically changing your life, and seeing the optimization take place in his clients is sincerely the reason he continues to do this.
Nowadays, Thomas lives in Santa Barbara, CA with his wife, four dogs, and three horses. They enjoy an active, outdoor life that allows them to optimize every aspect of their lives.
In this episode, Thomas DeLauer opens the show explaining why you shouldn't eat keto all of the time. If you eat keto for too long, you will eventually become glucose intolerant, and you aren't going to oxidize glucose as efficiently. Thomas dives into the difference between fat-adaptation vs. keto-adaptation and which one you should try and obtain. Plus, Thomas explains what the Gibbs Free Energy Equation has to do with keto, and we also talk about "healthy" keto foods to avoid and how much protein you really should be eating.

[02:20] Why You Shouldn’t Eat Keto All of The Time
- If you eat keto for too long without ever switching, then you're going to get dependent on keto, and you're going to become somewhat intolerant.
- People go hardcore keto, and they don't take adequate time off of it. When you do that, you lose a lot of the mitochondrial machinery to process glucose.
- Eventually, you will become glucose intolerant, and you will not oxidize glucose as efficiently.
- Some keto people have a "cheat" meal, and they will feel like garbage.
- If you eat a sweet potato, you shouldn’t feel like garbage. In fact, carbs aren’t bad for you. The overconsumption of carbs has messed us up.
[07:35] Fat-Adaptation VS. Keto-Adaptation: What’s The Difference?
- Fat-adaptation is where your body knows how to oxidize fat. Your body understands how to use free fatty acids as a fuel source.
- Keto-adaptation is where some of your fatty acids go to the liver, and the liver converts them into ketones.
- Someone that is an endurance athlete can be fat-adapted but not necessarily keto-adapted. Keto is how long you're actually exposing yourself to beta-hydroxybutyrate.
- The goal is really to get keto-adapted.
[09:40] What You Need To Know About The Gibbs Free Energy Equation
- When you produce energy within the brain you always have an abundance of free energy used for other things.
- That extra energy will get channeled somewhere else.
- Ketones burn so much cleaner, so you're left with more energy. You have less energy that is getting oxidized and less energy, ultimately resulting in oxidative damage and more energy available – free energy!
- Ketones produce about 27% more energy via this Gibbs energy equation versus glucose.
[11:45] Why The Hormetic Curve Is So Important To Achieve
- The hormetic stressors in our life happen on a daily basis, whether we realize them or not.
- When we keep stressing our bodies, they start to adapt to that stress.
- Take exercise, for instance, you have progressively more intense workouts, and you get progressively stronger as an adaptation.
- However, if you push yourself too hard, you're going to get yourself sick.
- This equation applies to virtually everything we expose ourselves to.
- We should always be in a little bit of discomfort, but not painful discomfort.
[22:55] How Much Protein You Should Be Eating While On Keto
- Thomas says to eat one gram of protein per pound of body weight.
- He weighs about 180 pounds. So, his goal is about 100 grams of protein a day.
- If someone weighs 280 pounds, they should eat 0.6 to 0.8 grams per kilogram.
- Protein is not going to kick you out of ketosis.
- It's much better to lean into protein than it is to lean into fats because you're much less likely to overdo the protein.
[30:25] “Healthy” Keto Foods That You Should Avoid
- You should be very careful of the salad dressings that you are eating. Sadly, these dressings usually contain soybean oil or canola oil.
- Industrial seed oils are worse than smoking cigarettes and sugars.
- Also, raw almonds and raw nuts can be very difficult for your body to break down. They’re not unhealthy, but it’s easy to overeat them.
- Processed cheese can be an unhealthy item you should avoid as well.
[36:30] Will Apple Cider Vinegar Break Your Fast?
- There are a couple of calories in apple cider vinegar. So in a literal sense, it breaks up your fast.
- With apple cider vinegar, metabolically, you're breaking a fast. However, you're actually putting yourself deeper into a fast as far as the AMPK pathway is concerned.
- Remember, AMPK is a sensor that recognizes when we are out of fuel, whether it's food or fatty acids that are liberated.
- Apple cider vinegar will be very beneficial for you in the first 20 hours of a fast.
- Overall, if apple cider vinegar allows you to get through a longer fast and you ordinarily wouldn't get through, then it's a win.
