why do you eat tortilla chips chris kenobi well i'm i'll differ with you on this point but i i uh and honestly i do really well on a carnivore diet but that's what we i like to use for taco salad and so anyway that's an organic tortilla chip and but anyway made with coconut oil so well okay okay we'll agree to disagree there right okay i don't have a problem with carbohydrates and when we get to that point of the in the talk we can talk about what we both do for moderate amounts of carbohydrates in our diet corn corn chips wouldn't be my first choice but okay i just had to give you a little bit of uh grief on that okay okay all right so here is uh and this is published the graph with not all the detail on there but our graph this is our published graph from our 2017 paper on macra degeneration but this is what happens with vegetable oils in the united states and this is where we went this is back in 1865 no oils right and by uh 2010 we're at 80 grams a day 80 grams a day that's 9 calories a gram that's 720 calories 32 of us caloric intake now you can argue that this this is not uh corrected for uh losses and that may be true but even our own usda finds that uh 24 of the american diet is a vegetable oil so a fourth and potentially a third and you know that there's a lot of people not consuming anywhere near this many oils so many are consuming more than that and uh but anyway in 1900 99 of the added fats came from animal fat lard butter and beef tallow by 2005 that's where this is 86 of added fats came from vegetable oils and we are sick and fat and sick and more sick and we're getting sicker and this is when the dietary guidelines were introduced 1980 and look what happened vegetable oil still going up and this is where they end the data is in 2010 actually and i think the fao the food and agriculture organization has stopped this paul to the best of my knowledge i don't think they want us to have this data anymore
