The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
165. Steven Rofrano: Why Your Chips Are Toxic and How to Snack Smarter With Masa Chip Founder

I mean, we mentioned this before, the same enzymes that process ethanol in the liver, it's called aldehyde dehydrogenase, that processes polyunsaturated fats, which come from seed oils.

Um, there's a common thing on the internet about how the founding fathers, after they signed the declaration of independence, like rented out some bar in Philadelphia and just like drink obscene quantities of alcohol, even for like the most, you know, alcoholic of modern, you know, say frat bros or whoever, just like handles of whiskey per person, like this kind of thing.

Um, and I, I can't help but wonder, and I know people used to drink a lot more in the past, actually. Like you, if you go to the cafes and bars in Europe, you have these big giant shelves of liquors and stuff. No one's drinking that anymore.
