Beef tallow is not patentable so there is much less to no incentive to invest in clinical trials. It would be an altruistic motive.

As soon as she said “I have my own skin care products” she lost me. Do you think she’s going to say beef tallow is good when she’s trying to sell her own products? Money, money, money

I dont listen to the medical community anymore. I had an ongoing prescription cream to treat my seborrheic dermatitis over the years because it just didn't go away. Changing my diet helped, but not 100%. Then i tried beef tallow out of desperation and guess what it worked. Same with my high blood sugar. My doctor kept giving me prescriptions to treat it, never mentioning diet. After doing my own research and trial and error i found a diet that reduced my blood sugar to the point of not needing meds. Why are most of the doctors against helping people without drugs? Your studies aren't convincing to me either because generally they are produced by those that want us to continue spending our money. This woman is a no for me. Not coming back and going to keep up my glowing skin with the tallow i purchase from a local, sustainable, cruelty free farm.

I sell beef tallow products and people are nuts for them! I use them myself to get rid of my perioral dermatitis completely, how do you explain that when no other dermatologist could get it to go away? I think a lot of the brands that sell beef tallow like mine don't have clinic research backing them is because we are all mostly small homesteaders and farmers just trying to make use of an animal byproduct that would normally get thrown into the landfill. I would love to get studies done on my products, but I don't make enough money to even have a single cow at this point.

Tallow from pasture-raised, grassfed cows has been an absolute game changer for my skin. I'm upset that I didn't know about it back in my 20s.

Whipped beef tallow has changed my skin. The one I buy from a farm in florida does not have any essential oils. I had horrible eczema, dermatitis and occasional acne and now my skin looks great.

Safflower seed oil is a seed oil and not vegetable oil. Seed oils aren't good for you do a bit of a dive on the internet and you'll soon see. Not all animal products are raised cruelly and that is something consumers need to be diligent about when purchasing. Not all plant products are beneficial grown and harmless to the environment either. Just because something is plant-based doesn't mean it's good for the environment or better.

Tallow IS sustainable and it is cruelty-free. I grew up on a cattle ranch. I would know. This dermatologist, while well intentioned, doesn't know what she doesn't know

This video is filled with misinformation, unbelievable

Hmmm… This is interesting to see and listen to. Very recently I read some clinical research that linked linoleic acid and especially excess linoleic acid to inflammation, eczema, allergies, heart disease, diabetes… Just to name a few… In some of the same studies cholesterol, especially from animal sources (good sources) was able to calm inflammation. Further, more often than not, oils like safflower, sunflower, etc are oxidized. The excess levels of oxidation can translate to oxidative stress in the cell. So wouldn’t this in turn create negative reactions in skin cells? Furthermore, tallow has butyric acid… This is actually anti-inflammatory, and may contribute to reductions in skin irritation. It may account for the anecdotal evidence people are presenting. This may be a topic you’d be interested in revisiting?

LOL. I think people should use beef tallow if it works for them. Note that this lady here has a conflict of interest. Why would she promote tallow and make no money, when she can sell her own products and make a fortune.

Beef tallow is AMAZING for skin! This lady dr is leaving out WAY MORE than she should to promote her products. SMH

I discovered tallow about 10 years ago, and it’s really been life changing for my facial seb derm. My face is so sensitive I can only wash it with warm water and a wash cloth. But it can tolerate a lot of tallow and doesn’t irritate or break me out. I mix a little lavender oil in to cover the smell before applying.

I started making my own tallow balm and cream … I’ll never use anything else again.

I have almost 0 interest in a dermatologists opinion on tallow for skincare. Yeah, like some one is going to pay for a study about tallow for skin care. And as for cruelty free! Well sorry this girl is a carnivore not a vegan. Why don’t you spend your time trying to sell veganism to all the other carnivores in the world like tigers and wolves and actually most animals on the planet. When anthropologists study ancient humans they can tell from the bones that the were an apex predator and were higher up on the chain than other predators like foxes. I’m far healthier since I went almost entirely carnivore I’ll never go back. And a year ago go I swore off all commercial hair products. I either use water only or cleanse/condition with egg yolks and acv and my hair is awesome! Clean, shiny, soft and 0 scalp problems. Before there was always dryness or buildup and itching and flaking. I agree a lot of people won’t promote things like tallow because it doesn’t jive with their agendas. But don’t be fooled by them.

I LOVE my home made whipped tallow face cream. I haven't conducted any fancy studies on it.....but sure does work for me.

If you listen to the "alternative" products she recommends you will notice they are higher dollar items. Oh wait this is a profit driven video. Cost comparison Beef tallow basically free if willing to render it yourself. Products she mentions $15 to $80 dollars an OZ. Sounds like she is only willing to promote products she can profit off of.

She lost me at McDonald’s uses beef talllow to deep fry French fries 😂 Ridiculous

I’ve been making my own face/body moisturizer w beef tallow for the past 5 yrs and it has been amaaaaazing for my extremely dry and sensitive skin🙏🏾

The vitamin A in tallow is Retinol. People have been using tallow for 1000s of years. So point of the post is, don't use natural tallow, but use your $100 to $200 face cream instead? Got it!

I replaced my chemical moisturizer with beef tallow and I will never look back. It’s expected for dermatologists to vilify beef tallow since there’s not much money there compared to their chemical products.

Seems like there’s a conflict of interest here

We should support farmers. There is nothing wrong with Beef Tallow NOT all of these dermatologists and prescription pushing pharmas. Dr. Whitney Bowe has her own line to push but she should not put down what is good.

Wow! I came here to defend Tallow Balm, and I see that I am not alone in my opinion!! I absolutely love it and make it for myself and my friends. I think your arguments against it are extremely shallow.

Yeah why would you recommend using a product that you can't sell Dr?

depends on the amount oleic acid in the tallow. i believe tallow contains only 2% of it. so the best advice for people is to try it, if they see no adverse effects then they have a cheap moisturiser for life with no prservatives and artificial chemicals

Doctors make money when you buy products they prescribe. So when they are all up in arms about an affordable available product-I want and will use it more.

Thank you for your insight, just so much to navigate through these days. My cardiologist said this to me, “sometimes there are too many cooks in the kitchen concerning your healt”, thank you again, really enjoyed that 😎🇺🇸

I’m hoping that my tallow cream will help with my Pityriasis Rosea. I just love the scent and consistency, and have tried it on my face for the first time tonight.

Hello Dr. Bowe, I’m male almost 67 from South Asian ethnicity. I need to remove aging signs, fine line, some skin sagging and have few sun spots on my face. I’m hoping to find a product that will address all these issues and leave my face skin smooth, even, clear and glowing. I do have somewhat sensitive skin (not terribly sensitive) and my skin color is light brown, not dark. I’m looking forward to hear from you soon. Thank you, RC

Been using beef tallow for awhile now and it has greatly improved my dry skin. My skin is now glowing thanks to beef tallow, castor oil, and high fat low carb diet. Sardines are a must add to your diet for skin health

She mentions beef tallow only has vitamins A and F and what she doesn’t say is that it has so much more such as vitamin D, K, E , B12 and CLE. I am in the skincare industry and even I know how beneficial tallow is, I not only use it topically but as a supplement too. Not only is it incredible for healing the skin but it’s fantastic for hormonal health as well, yes, your hormones benefit from tallow too! I would go to dermatologists 3 times a month because I had a rare skin condition in my private area that wouldn’t go away and the second I used this in the effected area, it went away in a matter of weeks!!! WEEKS!! I had this condition for 3 years!! I know how scamming the beauty industry can be which is why I have taken myself out of that profession entirely. I am so tired of people being told promises about all these lab tested fantastic products that are no different than standard drugstore skincare and haircare. The health and beauty industry is a joke made to drain people’s wallets and lives and it’s honestly so exhausting. Enough is enough.

It helped my eczema TREMENDOUSLY better then the steriod creams and over the counter creams. It also helped my skin stay moisturized most of the time. Im in love with tallow and it's not a trend or fad, it's life changing. Now if you talking about the face, dont forget the skin on the face is different from the body, so the face needs EXTRA loving care for it to get use to tallow. Especially exfoliating the face for it to penetrate into the skin.

I've been using tallow for a year now after hubby heard about it on a podcast. It's been used throughout history. Great for sensitive skin and immensely moisturizing. My other half thinks it's taken a few years off me (I'm 30s). Doctors haven't impressed me or my family over the years. I get that it's all about the hustle but truly feel for folk who follow the carrot. Ps - I'm confused, do vegans use bleach? How/why.

Wish I'd known about tallow during my battle with perioral derm 😢

Linoleic acid is actually used as a supplement in parenteral (IV) nutrition. Its essentially made from olive oil. And alternatives are basically just other oils.

Beef tallow is the best🎉

I just go to my local butcher to get a jar of beef tallow, where they obviously don't put any essentials oils in. Costs 1.5€ for 600g. I'm not vegan and it's more important for me that my skincare products are 100% toxic free for pregnancy, since everything I put on my skin gets absorbed and can hurt a baby.

The Derm Doctor who has 18 million followers says otherwise! He is a dermatologist as well so... home remedies have always worked and the pharma doctors hate it!! Chemicals on the skin are good

No way, tallow is my cream forever

Vitamin F lol people are oversaturated with this so called vitamin F .

Expert 😅

tallow made my cheeks and forehead so dry and rough like sandpaper. i wanted to love it.

I don’t listen to anybody who sells a product. Dishonesty.

All this sounds like is a marketing vid for your own line. Not trying to throw any shade. I get it but let's keep it 100. Honestly always builds the bottom line best. 😉

Beef tallow doesn't have retinol

U didnt talked about tallow balm. Just clickbait damn u

She sells products of her own. She won’t give an honest review. Also, I am never going to be convinced that lab made chemical concoctions are somehow better for our skin.

Cruelty free?? It’s a bi-product of the beef industry that feeds the world for goodness sake. Silly “drawbacks” like that take a good video and ruin it. Grow up.

which on of your products has Vitamin F

scared to lose her clients by the sounds of things haha

I like the way you speak but I understand as a vegan you wouldn’t support beef tallow

I use the ordinary vit F serum and enjoy the light oil texture, perfect for my dry/dehydrated skin…and it last such a long time because I need so little.

I think this video is a little bit biased cause you get into animal cruelty. If we’re using every part of the animal this is environmentally conscious. A lot of people are cutting away fat from their beef and throwing it away, you can save it render it and create your own beef tallow. I think traditional and old ways will save us instead of this new technology, where you create a lotion by creating synthetic chemicals to re-create stuff that’s already in nature naturally, and we also know that meat products as well as meat by products are more readily available than plant it’s easier to absorb by the skin. If you’re gonna review product, you should leave your opinions out and just go to the basics of the product the pros and the cons of the ingredients.

can it be used with rosacea?

LIIIIIES

If a dermatologist doesn’t like it- then it’s the right choice. They just went out of business

Hello, if one were to use both beef tallow and tretanoin: would that be too much vitamin A?

Wearing makeup and talking about skin health 😂

I heard there's also a risk of mad cow disease (BSE). Is this substantiated?
