so Harvard professor has come out and said that coconut oil is supposedly pure

poison so obviously this is caused a bit of controversy on the Internet as you

would expect so I'm gonna go over a points that this professor made and

debunk them because this this really isn't true and it's not correct and it's

something that has been debunked multiple times over the last few years

so I think that it deserves more airtime just to shed some clarity on it I

believe that it was last year that the American Heart Association also made the

claim that the statement that coconut oil is something you should be trying to

minimize and you diet so this again was head back with a lot of backlash from

people of course in the Paleo and the Kido genic community and other omnivores

in general and overall this topic coconut oil being oil which is which has

a lot of saturated fat is something which is back and forth in the

nutritional world just like eggs many people are in the believe have the

belief that it's extremely bad for you and other people think that it's God's

gift to the earth so coconut oil just like eggs are very controversial in the

sense so there are many different kinds of fat that we have in the diet the main

three that you're going to hear about they're going to be saturated fats

monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats so animal products tend to be

higher in saturated fats such as meat and eggs and coconut oil which is an

animal product and all of all avocados that the center behind monounsaturated

fats and and seeds and nuts and oils from these seeds like soybean oil tend

to behind polyunsaturated fats but most foods obviously have a mixture of all

three or two and whether a food is a saturated fat monounsaturated or

polyunsaturated fat is dictated by which fat dominates the fat ratio of that food

for example avocados are mostly monounsaturated fat therefore the seen

as a source of monounsaturated fat but coconut oil in specific is demonized by

those who think that saturated fat is unhealthy because it's pretty much got

the highest set rate of fat content when compared to other oils in fat

sources like lard or butter so a lot of times in places like YouTube especially

vegans for example who want to make saturated fat out to be really unhealthy

will cherry-pick evidence and by the way some of them describe the evidence on

saturated fat it almost seems like this there are no studies in existence which

show that there's no correlation between saturated fat intake and heart disease

but the truth is is that there are 17 systematic reviews and meta-analyses

which show that there's no clear a link between things like heart disease and

other diseases that cause an early death and saturated fat now in the world of

science funding is a big problem and funding bias for example many people

will say that when a study shows that there's no link between disease and

dairy many times these studies are funded by the dairy industry or for eggs

are funded by the egg industry and because of this many people will

discredit positive results between dairy and eggs and health because of this

funding and this could certainly be a possibility who knows but there's no way

to conclusively you know know this and accept that a study is flawed when it's

funded by someone because in general these studies a peer-reviewed meaning

it's not like the the industry that's funding them pays for it and it's put

out there by selected few scientists it's peer reviewed and it's looked at by

other people through an objective and unbiased lens so I bring up this point

because the American Heart Association which make it very clear that coconut

oil is supposedly unhealthy funded by you know companies which have a lot of

sugar in their products like Nestle for example or the coca-cola company now

this are like really important to understand and that's the effects that

something like saturated fat or any food product for that matter has on risk

factors as opposed to the actual disease that we worried about all mortality

death so that's something to keep in mind here because there are some links

between saturated fat and unfavorable changes to cholesterol for example in

the body but you know when you look at the effect that coconut oil saturated

fats these sorts of foods have on something like heart disease and there

really is any conclusive evidence that it's

causative of it simply that there might be a relationship to it like people who

consume more saturated fat in some studies maybe a more risk for heart

disease or an early death but this could be simply be due to the fact that people

in general who consume more saturated fat are consuming food products which

are more unhealthy which are higher and hydrogenated trans fats which overall

consume more calories or they smoke so many of these studies which seem to

point toward saturated fat being causative of an early death just

correlative because I don't take into account and control for other variables

which have a significant impact on people's health so these meta-analysis

of observational studies have reported no significant associations between

saturated fat intake and risk of coronary heart disease stroke or

cardiovascular disease in general now you're going to have many people point

to studies where they replace saturated fat with omega-3 and omega-6 and that

replacement decreased the risk for heart disease but then we also have other

studies which show that when you replace the saturated fats with just omega-6

which are known to be inflammatory and highly prone to lipid peroxidation and

those circumstances the risk for heart disease actually increased so there's

there are very subtle distinctions that have to be made here before you make the

conclusion that you should be swapping all your saturated fat intake out for

polyunsaturated fat intake you know overall whether you consume some coconut

oil or other sources of saturated fat isn't the biggest deal in the world what

you should be focusing on is your overall diet and lifestyle you know

there are big effectors to worry about instead of a tablespoon of coconut oil

that you may be putting in your food for the date the the biggest factors that

you should be primarily focusing on there's your overall weight overall

calorie intake and expenditure how much you're exercising these sort of factors

are gonna faster pass any sort of potential risk that a tablespoon of

coconut oil would with cause and there are other things to consider as well

like there have been shown to be positive correlations between saturated

fat and monounsaturated fat and testosterone while polyunsaturated fats

have an inverse relationship with testosterone with

that an eight week study looking at resistance train males following a

ketogenic diet experienced an increase in testosterone and that could possibly

be because of that increase in saturated fat intake so there are a number of

factors to consider here and you shouldn't start to get worried about

consuming a bit of coconut oil or consuming animal products that have some

saturated fat and if you're loving an overall healthy lifestyle don't get

mislead by articles like this that say coconut oil is poison and don't psyche

getting scared that having a tablespoon of it is going to cause detrimental

effects on your health you know the primary thing you should be worrying

about is the overall amount of food that you're in taking whether your health is

improving whether you feel good and also going and getting a blood work done at

the doctor's if you can afford that if that's available to you and seeing how

your body is actually responding to the diet that your your you're giving it

because you know we're all gonna respond to food differently some people are

going to have genetic sensitivities to saturated fat and even dietary

cholesterol people with something called the apoe4 gene so that's in the minority

but we're all different so it's not okay to make a statement like coconut oil is

poison therefore everybody should be decreasing the consumption of it it's

not as simple as that so hopefully you guys enjoy this video leave your

Do You Know What Your Unique Ability Is? - Duration: 2:54.

So this is important is already sending me this

is good for everyone to hear.

How you figure out.

You're trying

to say.

Yeah. It's a bit of both.

And for those watching today I

think you can't call your own unique

ability yourself so

you can get it yourself.

And you know deep down that you're just good at

that one thing. For me it's being

an architect of

ideas and building starting.

I used to say to you I was used to be ashamed

of that a bit. But I'm like No

I'm not a flaky guy I'm a starter.

But for starter for me means three

five seven years.

That's not just starting that

building right.

And so to answer your question

dabs No it's I think

you should know it deep down

but then you need to go to your

close 10 15 people

group people that you work

with people you know and say What do you think

I'm best at.

And then you know take that

information and synthesize

that data

and then figure out

for yourself what really

resonates with you that you can own

and then dabs.

And then it just becomes amazing when you step

into that unique ability.

Work gets easier.

It doesn't make it easy

but it gets easier because you're in that flow state

almost all the time doing what you're best

at. For me no.

They're all

right. I

know you're just not

you're just not awesome at a lot of things.

And I'm lucky to have a lot of friends

around me that have told me what I'm good

at and when I'm bad at

and then I've really came to realize that so

watching this today

and for you to that's a good question is like

you just got to know that you're not going to be awesome

at a lot of things even things that you

want to be good at

or think you see other people

or you envy them

when you really dig in

and find your unique ability

and what you're just the best at

that no one can touch you at it.

Almost one in a million

man the world becomes your oyster

and you can do anything.

So it takes a lot

of humble pie because

you're going to people are going to tell you you're

not good at this and you think you are.

And you just you can't be

good at five or six things.

You can manifest your unique ability in five

or six areas

but you should be good at really one

or two things.

Dabs you're

your creative mind you can

take it. There's no one like you that

I've seen that can take

the shit that I put out

and other people

and turn seemingly

inconsequential moments

and bring out the gem polish it up

and present the world.

I think that's what you're good at.

And you can do it fast.

Tearing Down Sir John A. Macdonald's Statue Is Not Reconciliation - Duration: 6:33.

Unsurprisingly for the head of an organization called the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, I

believe the current campaign of vilification and erasure being carried out against Sir

John A. Macdonald, architect of Confederation and our first prime minister, is both wrong

and unjustified.

On the other hand, I warmly welcome the desire for reconciliation with Canada's Indigenous

peoples that justifies this campaign in the minds of many people of good will.

Can the desire to celebrate the history of perhaps the finest country in the world, and

that of seeking reconciliation with Indigenous people who feel wronged by that history, be

made to co-exist?

I believe they can and that we should try.

Remembering that the most recent attack on Sir John's reputation was the removal of

his statue from the city hall in Victoria, BC in the name of reconciliation, the meaning

of that word is worth reflecting on.

Perhaps the most famous truth and reconciliation effort in the world was South Africa's following

the end of the odious apartheid regime.

The values behind that country's truth and reconciliation commission were movingly expressed

as: "a need for understanding but not for vengeance, a need for reparation but not for

retaliation, a need for kindness, but not for victimization."

As one acute observer explained, "what truth and reconciliation commissions seek to undo

is the deep-rooted human need for vengeance as a means to address past wrongs."

Reconciliation requires all the parties to focus on the future, not the past.

It requires them to bring great generosity of spirit to the endeavour, to forswear revenge

and retaliation because they only sow the seeds of future conflict.

Instead we must look for ways to accept responsibility for past wrongs, to accept genuinely-offered

gestures of restitution and healing and to show each other kindness and compassion.

That sows the seeds of future comity.

The decision to remove Sir John's statue and the larger effort to shame him and his

contribution fails these tests of genuine reconciliation.

According to Senator Murray Sinclair, who chaired Canada's own truth and reconciliation

commission, the problem with tearing downs statues is that quote "it is counterproductive

to ... reconciliation because it almost smacks of revenge or smacks of acts of anger, but

in reality, what we are trying to do is ... create more balance in the relationship."

The revulsion with which the vast majority of Canadians have greeted the decision to

remove Sir John's statue shows that this gesture fails the tests of reconciliation

because non-Indigenous Canadians do not accept the reducing of their illustrious founder

to a one-dimensional caricature, based on a policy that was widely accepted and supported

at the time.

Far from promoting reconciliation, this will only create resentment and resistance to real

efforts at reconciliation that address the future, not the past.

Nothing will dispel the appetite for reconciliation faster than the belief that Canadians who

are justly proud of their country must hide these sentiments away and look on silently,

while our founders are treated as criminals whose names must never be mentioned in polite

company.

Does that mean that nothing could have been done to recognize Indigenous feelings about

the historical facts of traditional Canadian "Indian policy"?

Of course not.

New interpretive material could have accompanied Macdonald's statue, fully recognizing his

role in helping to create Canada's early Aboriginal policy, along with his many more

positive accomplishments, which include, by the way, being an early advocate of women's

rights and the prime minister who gave Aboriginal people the vote (later taken away by Sir Wilfrid

Laurier's Liberals).

More importantly Canadians would have embraced the creation and display of new monuments

celebrating Indigenous leaders and groups who made noteworthy contributions to their

community and to Canada.

It is precisely this that Senator Sinclair has called for in the true spirit of reconciliation:

not the bringing low of the towering non-Aboriginal figures of our history, but the raising up

of their Aboriginal equivalents.

How we understand and pursue reconciliation will determine whether we do so in mutual

respect and co-operation or mutual distrust and hostility.

Put Sir John back in a place of honour, use the restoration as an occasion to expand our

understanding of his errors as well as his feats, and celebrate Indigenous history and

heroes too.

That exemplifies the two-way street of genuine reconciliation, seeking neither retaliation

nor vengeance, but offering instead understanding and kindness.

There is still time.
