Of all the things that can contribute to various cancers, seed oils are probably a bit further down the list. But it is a popular political topic these days :slight_smile:

The source of this article is an infomercial site. They take paid “articles” which have links in them to sites for purchasing things. I will probably use this marketing tactic in the not too distant future :slight_smile:

Here is another take on seed oils…

If you want to fact check seed oils, just go to Nick Hiebert’s TheNutrivore X account going forward:

I figured if I posted the article here, which at first pass seemed reasonable, you guys would either support it or debunk it.

Seed oils fall outside my normal sphere of interest. I’m an EVOO guy. :slight_smile:

I recently noticed that there is potentially a good (=valid) criticism of the use of seed olis for cooking in that when used for frying they generate more aldehydes.

I think the argument that they are harmful even when not used for cooking is not as strong. Whether the body metabolises them into aldehydes was not clear from a quick search.
