Stearic acid ingestion increases circulating C18 triglycerides and activates mitochondrial beta-oxidation.

“There are also many interesting studies in humans with stearic acid that don't seem to be considered here (PMID: 30087348).”

“The opposite signal appears to come from stearic acid, the 18 carbon saturated fat found in high amounts in suet (kidney fat) and cacao butter. In both human and animal models, this molecule appears to have positive effects at a mitochondrial level.”

“it increases fatty acid beta oxidation in vivo”

“fire starter is a high stearic acid tallow and i've talked about steric acid recently on the podcast as a substance as a signaling 18 carbon saturated fatty acid that turns on mitochondrial fat burning”

“scientifically what's really cool about this is that the stearic acid is unique in humans yes uh it the stearic acid seems to have some unique effects at um and especially at really targeting the um the abdominal fat stores specifically”

“you give the mitochondria you give the humans humans back stearic acid the mitochondria fuse they turn on and they start burning fat and they start multiplying”

“stearic acid is an 18 carbon saturated fatty acid that appears to make us lean there are studies done in humans that show that supplementation with stearic acid turns mitochondria on and turns them to a fat burning mode”

“what we're probably dealing with here is mitochondrial electron transport chain mechanisms which are conserved all the way from c elegans to humans”

“that is the real superfood you guys that is what we're talking about forget sulforaphane we're talking about stearic acid found in animal fats intramuscular fat suet kidney fat such a cool molecule”

“we show here that c18 which is stearic acid ingestion rapidly and robustly causes mitochondrial fusion in people within three hours of ingestion”

“this this 18 carbon saturated fatty acid that i'm fascinated by that has been shown to activate mitochondria and turn on fat burning and studies again this is all in the past guys it's all in my podcast you can look for the stearic acid studies and the podcasts have done the stearic acid in the past but it's really only found in significant quantities in animal fat”

“but stearic acid is super beneficial if you are not getting enough stearic acid from animal fat in your diet check out fire starter this is an amazing supplement so many people benefit from getting this extra grass-fed Tallow from suet which is the kidney fat of animals which is super high in stearic acid and they see incredible results in all sorts of ways”

“i've done many talks in the past about the importance of this 18 carbon saturated fatty acid in the human diet the way that it turns on mitochondria”

“i'll also point out that my stearic acid was quite high because i do have a lot of that in my diet i eat a lot of tallow i've done many talks in the past about the importance of this 18 carbon saturated fatty acid in the human diet the way that it turns on mitochondria”

“it appears to be a signal at the level of the mitochondria to turn on fat burning”

“stearic acid is yet another compound found only or exclusively or predominantly in animal foods that is essential for human physiology and optimal health in my opinion my strong belief”

“it's losing stearic acid which is an 18 carbon saturated fatty acid that appears to help with weight loss and satiety so the opposite of linoleic acid at a high level”

“so why do I prefer animal fats because I don't fear saturated fats and I want things like steric acid an 18 carbon saturated fatty acid that I've talked about in the past having benefits for the human organism there are studies with cerc acid where if you deprive people of STC acid there are changes negative changes to the mitochondria which are reversed and you see the mitochondria turn on and do beta oxidation they start burning fat when steric acid is reintroduced in the diet”

“there are studies with stearic acid where if you deprive people of stearic acid there are changes negative changes to the mitochondria which are reversed and you see the mitochondria turn on and do beta oxidation they start burning fat when stearic acid is reintroduced in the diet”

“stearic acid is an 18 carbon the technical for a moment 18 carbon saturated fats that has been shown to activate mitochondria it kind of turns on fat burning and mitochondria and you could look at vegans they have essentially no stearic acid there's a study in humans where they gave people they put them on a vegan diet for three days so they don't get any stearic acid and then they give them stearic acid and you see the mitochondria change the study published in nature so you can see the the mitochondria of our body respond to this 18 carbon saturated fat and it's in animal fats”

“Animal fats in general also contain steric acid and 18 carbon saturated fatty acid that's been shown in human studies to kind of affect mitochondria the energy plant in your cells positively to turn on fat burning in animal studies clearly leads to reduction of visceral fat when animals are given steric acid which is found in animal fat”

“steric acid is that 18 carbon saturated fat that has been associated with leanness in animal models consistently and in humans has been shown to positively affect my andrial fat metabolism”

“I'll also point out that my steric acid was quite High because I do have a lot of that in my diet I eat a lot of tallow I've done many talks in the past about the importance of this 18 carbon saturated fatty acid in the human diet in the way that it turns on mitochondria”
