Odd-chain fatty acids found in dairy fats are consistently and strongly associated with improved health outcomes in humans.

“the benefits of ocfas and specifically i've gotten really interested in pentadecanoic acid c15 i think you're going to see more and more supplements coming out with this but guess what it occurs in animal fat efficacy of dietary odd chain saturated fatty acid pentadecenoic acid parallels broad associations associated health benefits in humans could it be essential you damn right it could be essential it's not made in our bodies”

“Higher circulating concentrations of ocfas pentadecanoic acid c15 and heptadecanoic acid c17 are associated with lower risks of cardiometabolic diseases higher dietary intake is associated with lower mortality again this is observational epidemiology”

“dietary odd chain fatty acids ocfas are present in trace levels in dietary fat sorry dairy fat fish ruminant fat and plants though the levels in plants are pretty darn low”

“you're going to also miss odd chain fatty acids things i haven't really talked about a ton but you can i can talk about more in the future penta decanoic acid heptadecanoic acid and odd chain fatty acids found in animal fat uniquely have unique biological roles healthy roles in humans imagine that animal fat uniquely beneficial for humans”

“there are even odd chain fatty acids in human biochemistry specifically uh 15 carbon chains and 17 carbon chains that as a as an aside that we probably won't go into in this podcast are very valuable for human health and they are essentially only found in animal fats this pentadecenoic acid and hepta decanoic acid”

“Recent findings have shown an inverse association association between circulating c15 and c17 fatty acids with disease risk therefore their origin needs to be determined and understanding of their role in these pathologies should be clarified and they find that two human dietary intervention studies were used to translate the results finally a study comparing baseline c15 and c17 with the prognosis of glucose intolerance we found that circulating c15 and c17 levels were not influenced by the gut microbiota the dose response study showed c15 had a linear response however c17 was not directly correlated and what they found was that when people had more of these fats in their body they were correlated with better results and there was a dose response relationship especially with c15”

“There are all of these nutritional components, many of which are predominantly found or exclusively found in animal foods that appear to promote satiety that associate we can't draw a positive inference, but there's a strong consistent association between these nutrients and improved health in humans. Odd chain fatty acids, pentadecanoic acid, hexadecanoic acid are just some of those.”

“there are interesting important fats in milk things like stearic acid odd chain fatty acids which i'll mention in a moment”

“There are also odd chain fatty acids which are saturated found in dairy fat C15 and c17 and those have consistently been associated with improved Health outcomes”

“the odd chain fatty acids C15 and c17 you ready for this pentadecanoic acid and heptadecanoic acid those are also consistently associated in terms of blood levels with improved outcomes in humans and where are they found dairy fat and Tallow”

“these odd chain fatty acids found primarily in Dairy fats like this butter or ghee these are consistently and strongly associated with improved Health outcomes in humans”

“dairy fat also contains things like odd chain fatty acids C15 and c17 pentanoic acid heptanoic acid which are consistently associated with good health outcomes in humans”

“found in Dairy are these very unique fats called odd chain fatty acids C15 and c17 which really don't occur in other foods and these have consistently been associated with improved Health outcomes”
