Are seed oils really the evil villain they're made out to be? 😈Let's dissect this heated debate and clear the air. I'm responding to a scathing one-star review accusing me of being "anti-science" and in cahoots with Big Food (seriously, where are my checks! 🤑💵).Related episode about seed oils:→ Quick Wits: Seed Oils Aren't the ProblemI stand firm on my evidence-based approach, explaining why seed oils are not inherently harmful and highlighting the limitations of observational studies that can't establish causality. As for the science, feel free to refer to the multiple meta-analyses (like this and this) that show no link between seed oils / omega-6 and health issues (and some seem to support the opposite, that higher linoleic acid is associated with LOWER heart disease and mortality risk).We'll also shed light on how the real dietary culprits are often the excess calories, lack of nutrients, and high palatability in ultra-processed foods correlated with an unhealthy dietary pattern and overconsumption, rather than the seed oils themselves. My message?Focus on balanced nutrition and moderation within an 80/20 framework to truly prioritize your health. Shockingly "anti-science" isn't it? 😁🤯Tune in to hear me go after the haters in a not-too-scathing-but-just-right way and if you want to drown out the negative reviews...Click here to submit a 5-star review on Apple, one of the BEST ways to support the show! 🤩🙏 Last thing...Did you like this episode?
