@@adrian-4767 I don't think a microwave oven would normally flash heat, but it would have been nice if he had specifically addressed microwave cooking. Non-stick usually means teflon coated, but teflon may be a brand name, so he used the chemical/scientific name.
Four more things to worry about! I’m already cooking at home and avoiding processed foods. (Breakfast was tofu scramble with kimchi, tomatoes and a slice of my homemade whole-wheat bread). I don’t barbecue or smoke anything. My nonstick frying pan, which I only use for eggs (which are now good, not bad) is aging, so I guess that’s bad. I can replace it with a ceramic one. So now I apparently should be cooking with saturated fat rather than oil? I can’t sear anything? No fond? No home made pizza? No pressure cooking? No coffee? I’m confused. I thought I was making healthy choices. But it seems like life is universally fatal. The problem with all this evolving science is that, faced with no perfect choices, people may just give up and eat whatever the hell they want.

The smoke point of olive oil isn’t what you need to worry about. It’s when the oils starts to polymerize is when you need to watch out for. Olive oil polymerizes at 450 if you go beyond that it gets burnt. Not sure why you are mixing canola oil with olive when they are 2 different things.

Another important thing to look into is bongkrekic acid. I had no idea until I was about to refrigerate some dried woodear mushrooms that I had been soaking and my gf warned me to do a little research about them. I ended up on some food safety board website for Macau, iirc. Apparently certain types of mushrooms, corn and coconut products if handled improperly can produce some kind of bacteria that produces this highly toxic bongkrekic acid. Very important to be aware of this before you go trying to make your own coconut yogurt or deal with dried mushrooms. I think you are not supposed to hydrate mushrooms, cook them, refrigerate them and reheat them. I dunno, it was a little complicated but I’m kind of paranoid about mushroom leftovers now. 🤣 But it is worth looking into because I don’t think many Americans are informed about this.

That way, I don't heat oils. Also, a former supervisor of mine told me that he used to sell non-stick cookware. He told me that that stuff should be illegal. Years ago, my mother and I thought it was ok as long as the non-stick surface didn't start peeling off into the food. But now I know that invisible substances are being absorbed into the food from non-stick surfaces. People need to educate themselves on what they are eating and how they are preparing their food.

If you really want a nonstick pan, just go with anodized aluminum. It doesn’t react to acidic foods and is fairly nonstick without much maintenance. Cast iron is always great but I find a lot of people don’t want to put in the maintenance for one, which is fine, I hate doing it myself. I’ve always found that stainless steel is very sticky, UNLESS you get triple ply stainless, like All-Clad. They’re a bit pricey but it will honestly be the last pot or pan you buy for at least a few decades. I still use a small coating of walnut oil though, just in case I’m dealing with a particular food that’s prone to sticking like fish.

Yeah I went over to Stainless steel - cooking on natural gas mainly these days because I was given a stainless steel frying pan - which does tend to stick so just a little olive oil solves that problem. Ironically I found I could also use stainless steel pots to fry eggs [Omelettes] in with a smidge of olive oil in them too to stop the sicking aspect. So probably didn't need the huge and pretty heavy stainless steel frypan to cook for myself only as I'm a single male - But It still comes in very handy when I want to cook Pasta and Turkey mince with a garlic, Onion and Tomato pasta sauce - and mushies all together - because that just wouldn't all fit into a regular sized pot/saucepan together. Trouble is I've already spent most of my adult years eating from aluminium frying pans and pots and then non stick coated varieties later on when they became the rage up until relatively recently and have my share of BBQ's over the years when I was not cooking for myself. 🤨🙃

It’s the heating of animal products and oils which are all not natural products for the body. Basically the way to better health and the way God designed out bodies is to eat Whole Foods which are plant based and not have animal products or processed oils. God has allowed us to consume animal products because He knew people would still do it so he somehow made some mechanisms so we wouldn’t die instantly, yet they kill us slowly. Plants like avocado, nuts and seeds and starch foods like beans, lentils, brown rice and many others….have natural oils which are healthy and provide balance for the body. Coconut oil can be used occasionally as other natural oils in foods such as avocado and seeds and nuts, but the animal products are not healthy. That many of us are still alive or those people that say their ancestors ate lard were saved by the grace of God and also not we have many other chemicals and containments that make our systems weaker thus more need to be more careful about what we eat. Look up informant on Dr John McDougall and other plant based doctors and you can be lead to studies on more information about why animal products are so harmful. The Starch solution is a good starting point by Dr McDougall. Literally even the World Health Organization has noted red meats as a probable carcinogen and processed meat as a known carcinogen. If you look there will be lots of studies that help you confirm the information about oils and fats being so harmful. Let God and Jesus Christ lead you to better health and pray for truth and clarity, it’s so hard with all the false messages out there. God bless you and who ever is seeking truth and reads this.

Umm this demonstrates that you have a misunderstanding of how cancers and tumours work. I’d research that first. Nothing is a guaranteed to cause cancer everything is higher and lower risks. Because your immune system will always try to work to knock off cancers for you. But if you thrash it with high risk behaviours you are more likely to come to the situation where your immune system can’t keep up or you strike the situation where the genes for this normal apoptosis process are damaged in a precancerous cell. The environment you create in your body will also allow the cancer cell to proliferate fast slow or not at all. Chemistry science fact can tell you that high heat causes AGEs in cooking meats oils / fats / animal products - that’s just common knowledge or accepted fact. You can look that up. This will happen with all oils at their respective heats. This will happen every time you cook meat. (He shows the different heats for each oil on the next slide) And you can find a list of known carcinogens on cancer sites. Studies shows up all the time that AGEs are not good for health and increase bad health risk factors. I’d recommend a wfpb diet to reduce risk. Hope that helps.
Fascinating. Thanks!
A recent study “Evaluation of Chemical and Physical Changes in Different Commercial Oils during Heating” demonstrated that extra virgin olive oil is actually one of the most oxidatively stable oils at high heats, despite its relatively low smoke point.

I’m confused what constitutes high heat and at what levels do we see those compounds at. Also, cooking is vital for many foods. It helps break down and release certain nutrients that ordinarily wouldn’t be digestible or bioavailable without said heat source. I think anything “burnt” is bad, but what about Maillard reactions and caramelization? Neither require high heat sources, just a consistent one for long durations of time.

Doc, curious what your take is on the health risks of eating brisket that is typically bought in 10-18lb. sizes in stores, when smoked on an offset smoker at 250-275 degrees for the requisite period of time depending on the brisket's size until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 165-170 degrees, then finished in the oven in tin foil or wrapped in butcher paper on the smoker until the internal temperature reaches 200-203 degrees. This is common practice among bbq aficionados. Thank you!

I also went to a Chef's wine tasting at Chef Geoff Tracy's (he's married to Nora O'Donnell) first restaurant around that same time and he talked about using specifically *_extra virgin_* first cold-press olive oil. I believe in his production kitchens he uses a blend with a refined olive oil at some specific ratio to raise the smoke pont, but he was a big proponent of using only the first pressed, cold pressed, *_unrefined,_* best of the best olive oil for its health benefits. Using EVOO is especially important when you're "eating it raw" like on salads or with some herbs and seasonings for dipping breadsticks or dinner rolls, etc

QUESTION: A colleague, raised in a different culture several thousand miles away, has touted using a pressure cooker for meals, which I had never heard of until he introduced it to me. This extremely RAPID method of cooking seems as though it might fall into this category as dangerous (i.e. high heat), as I was informed the cooking temperature is extremely high. Can you expand on these methods? 1) pressure cooker 2) microwave 3) wok (often stainless steel, but unfortunately many use sesame oil with this method) Many thanks!

Per the ideal gas law PV=nRT, when pressure increases and VnR remain constant, the temperature also increases. That's how pressure cookers can cook at a higher temperature. Inside a pressure cooker, the pressure can increase by an additional 15 psi to 30 psi. At that pressure range, water boils at the max temperature of 121°C (250°F). Rest assured that pressure cookers don't cook at dangerously high temperature while cooking in less time and energy.

I'm pretty sure that coffee is a healthy antioxidant that is probably good for you in moderate doses. It's just that many people consume coffee with unhealthy additives. I kind of liken it to chocolate: 70%+ dark chocolate, chocolate nibs, and pure cocoa powder are actually healthy, as long as they aren't paired with too much fat or sugar. With that said, I actually hate the taste of coffee haha - only drink tea, which I'd argue is even healthier (hibiscus, for example).

@@aimson My son-in-law has an organic coffee roasting business. You place an order, he roasts the beans and mails it out the same day. Fresh roasted organic coffee is absolutely different tasting than coffee from starbucks or buying even organic coffee that has been sitting on a store shelf for months.
This was very informative, thank you . I would have liked to hear more about the dangers of coffee ,since recent studies have said 1 or two cups a day is healthy . I also do not understand how grulung with the grill lid closed stops the harmfull smoke from clinging to the foods ?

Your comment is exactly the same items that I wanted to address. I rewind the video 10 times just to see if I heard what he said about coffee and that it is much safer to barbecue the food with the lid closed.
I cook food with Le creuset cast iron but mostly steam in low heat and seasoning with olive oil, butter or coconut oil after I turn off the stove. That way I can preserve as much vitamin and nutrition in the food. Occasionally I cook salmon and steak in my oven at low heat in a short time possible. I like the blue carbon cast iron (Made in) that cook my omelette perfectly in no time at low heat, and best is it's not sticking
Hi doctor thank you. ❤️❤️❤️🥴
Thanks dctr.
Basically we should just be eating food raw 😂

Chewing on a raw steak is good as work and might use up more calories than you take in. A win-win in many ways!

There is a reason for cooking food - cooking destroys harmful bacteria and toxic substances in food. Lets face it - we are all going to die of SOMETHING. Worry will kill you quicker than anything else.
What the hell in the world am I suppose to cook with then! Im already paranoid enough eating outside even if it’s every once in a while and now I see this! Do I just let my food stick to my pan and cook with low heat all the time? It be useful if you start posting videos on what we should cook then.
After discovering that teflon does this, i went with stainless steel pans. Had to follow a tutorial on how to use them, but so far VERY happy with my desicion. Finely i wont have to replace my pan every 3 years AND its healtyer
I absolutely love your videos and your scientific vocabulary doctor. Please make a video about the huge benefits (I believe) of the sous vide cooking method. It avoids those cooking mistakes, keeps far more micro nutrients and tastes fantastic; why would I pay so much for high quality protein just to chemically ruin it? After all, carnivores don't cook their meat nor need to take supplements. One drawback could be keeping hormones and antibiotics more active but I think the benefits out weight the dangers by far.

sous vide cooking: Wikipedia & Google explains this. It is slow & expensive. Better to steam, or use a pressure cooker. My wife uses an air fryer, with water to "steam" the food.

One other grilling tip. Cover the grill with aluminum foil to prevent fats dripping onto the coals resulting in PAHs that come back up in the smoke.
Please do a video on acrylamide in coffee. Is cold brewing better? Or does the acrylamide form when beans are roasted? I really like your videos.

Interesting points Dr. Mike! BUT do you know if most restaurant kitchens cook any differently (better or worse?) than most home kitchens? How can one reasonably know if commercial kitchens avoid things like non-stick pans, highly heated oils with low-smoke-points, grilling, etc? And if yes, how did you find out? And how can we find out? Would we literally have to do an in person kitchen-walk-through of any restaurants we go to regularly? Actually, now that I’m thinking about it, this might be a good idea. Thanks

@ Mr. Matt It is pretty much common knowledge (with a very few exceptions) that most restaurants don't use good oils, do not cook in best pots and are trying to keep costs down which usually equates to lower quality food. Like using margarine over butter.

This is some great info. My question is what about cooking whole foods in the microwave? Is that a type of flash heating to be weary of? (Cooking chopped potatoes in a cup for 3 min in the microwave for example -add dash of oil an salt after?) If baking is a better option to frying, what about baking at 425 or 450F? Is there risk when baking at high temperatures? What if I bake without any oils?

A microwave activates and breaks down the molecules of water in any given food put in it. The structure of said food is turned upside down, can't be metabolized the same. Edit : in any circonstances, give priority to low temperature steam kind of cooking and low temperatures in general. Vitamines don't survive to +65°, the best is not to surpass 110° for cooking. It reveals all the flavours, btw.
Once again, good report and I have just learned not to fry in olive oil. Rather bake or boil. Or I can stream veggies right?
Hey I looked for links to these studies but I didn’t see them. Can somebody point me in the right direction? I got rid of all of my non stick years ago, that stuff is evil.
So what temperatures are we talking about here and in what way in regards to the 1st point about high heat? Like are we talking about heats high enough to burn oils or is it lower? I ask because unless you slow cook, your foods cooked on a stove or in the oven are generally exposed to degrees above 300F, with or without oil (e.g. baking chicken in the oven).
I use Connaught Gold or Kerry Gold butter to saute . Add steaks with garlic job done. Dont have a microwave. Or a pressure cooker. My father who would be 100 if he were living always warned of burning food or cooking at too high a heat.
Love it!
This so much better than when you were trying to be hip or whatever See, I didn't know any of these things, something to consider. I do tend to cook at high heat, I guess fortunately, I've switched to lard some years ago. I found that food cooked on lard, compared to food cooked on oil, is divine, I mean, I'm no cook, and I make tasty things using lard. But I'll defo have to start using lower settings on my stove. I mean, wouldn't be hilarious if I lost weight due to switching to lower temps after straggling with it, few years before going onto lard based diet :P I mean, I don't expect that, my issue is I overeat, and I eat at wrong times of day, and I have a sweet tooth, like a sweet tusk for sure, and all that compounds into me struggling to lose weight but, I am better now than two years back I suppose
You mention numerous clinical studies during your discussion however i don't see the references to these studies or weather they were peer reviewed could you also inform us of the Flash heating temperature of EV Olive oil i didn't see it on the screen Thank you.
Wow I actually learned something today. High level intelligent well done. For one I better stop overheating my olive oil for sure.

It's BS, doesn't convert to trans fat.
I remember learning in organic chem class, years ago, that fats which are solids at room temperature have double carbon bonds and those which are liquids at room temp don’t.
Be diligent when choosing cookware. Many of them say stainless steel or ceramic, but have an aluminum core. The ones that don’t are typically expensive. I went with cast iron, which are very affordable, cook great, and easy to clean once properly seasoned.
Thanks
Is it celsius or farenheit températures ? Is flash pasturization of the milk included in the inconveniences of flash cooking ? For info, Dr Seignalet in France warned about all that 25 years ago...
I'd like to know more about this, and how to safely cook.
