Seed oils, such as soybean oil, are inflammatory because they cause linoleic acid to accumulate in cells and tissues, including LDL cholesterol particles. Linoleic acid, an omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid, is fragile and prone to oxidation, and seed oils contain high amounts of it. The medical literature shows that increased seed oil consumption raises inflammatory markers like oxidized LDL, LP, PLA2, and CRP. Therefore, to decrease inflammation and improve health, seed oils should be completely removed from the diet. Anyone claiming seed oils are not inflammatory has not read the relevant research.

In the 1960s and 70s, health experts advised reducing saturated fats from animal products due to studies linking them to increased cholesterol and heart disease risk. Seed oils, high in polyunsaturated fats, emerged as healthier alternatives. This led to a widespread adoption of seed oils, with margarine replacing butter and increased use in processed foods like salad dressings, chips, and cookies. This dietary shift raised concerns about the potential harm of consuming large amounts of seed oils and omega-6 fatty acids, especially if the oils are improperly manufactured or contain impurities like trans fats or oxidized fats.

The concern that eating too much omega-6 leads to inflammation may be overblown. While the theory sounds logical when extrapolating from lab tests on single cells, human randomized controlled trials provide real-world evidence. One such trial involved obese individuals who were fed either a diet high in omega-6 seed oils or a diet high in saturated fat from butter. Both groups consumed the same amount of calories and macros. After ten weeks, the seed oil group had less liver fat, reduced inflammation, and lower insulin levels compared to the saturated fat group. The study also measured linoleic acid levels in the blood to verify that the seed oil group was adhering to the study protocol and consuming more seed oils.

Omega three fatty acids are the building blocks for anti inflammatory agents, which is why they're so important. They help fight inflammation in your body. Now you may say, I'm not inflamed. But first of all, inflammation is not the same as swelling. And second, if you live in this world and especially eat a Western diet, somewhere in your body, you are inflamed at a cellular level. Inflammation causes a lot of illnesses. Too much inflammation in your blood vessels leads to hardening of the arteries. That's why omega three fatty acids are considered heart healthy. Too much inflammation in your brain can lead to anxiety and mood disorders such as the And we've even seen a link between inflammation and ADHD. Now inflammation isn't all bad.

Heating seed oils may create harmful compounds. When seed oils are exposed to heat, light, or air, they can start to break down in a process called oxidation, which is accelerated during cooking. This happens to seed oils more than other oils because seed oils have a lot of polyunsaturated fats, which have a special structure with double bonds. These double bonds make the fats weaker, so they break down more easily. When oil breaks down, it creates harmful substances like free radicals and oxidized fats, which can damage the cells in the body. When seed oils are heated, the polyunsaturated fats with double bonds can break down and form these harmful compounds.

Seed oils like canola, sunflower, safflower, grapeseed, and palm oil are harmful due to processing methods. Canola oil production involves hexane, a neurotoxin, heating to 405 degrees, deodorization with sodium hydroxide (a carcinogen), and sometimes bleaching. The consistent color of vegetable oils on grocery store shelves is chemically induced. These oils are pro-inflammatory. Five oils to use are grass-fed butter, ghee butter, grass-fed tallow, coconut oil, and olive oil.

Seed or vegetable oils, including canola, safflower, and soybean oil, are now in the mainstream spotlight due to concerns about ultra-processed foods. These oils are used in 90% of supermarket foods and in most restaurants for cooking, flavoring, and texturing. Canola oil was originally an engine lubricant, and cottonseed oil was used to make soap. The refining process involves washing with chemical solvents like hexane, heating to high temperatures causing oxidation, and then bleaching and deodorizing to mask rancidity. The bottled oil continues to break down on the shelf and oxidizes further during cooking, resulting in an unstable, inflammatory substance that is claimed to be heart healthy.

Seed oils are not inherently problematic. The issue arises when seed oils are consumed in ultra-processed foods and takeaways cooked at high temperatures. People who feel better after eliminating seed oils likely improved their health by cutting out junk food, not by avoiding seed oils themselves. Research indicates that replacing butter with unsaturated fats, like seed oils, can lower inflammation, improve cholesterol, and reduce heart disease. Therefore, using fresh seed oils on salads or in home cooking is beneficial when part of a whole-foods diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean meats, and whole grains. The focus should be on minimizing ultra-processed foods rather than eliminating seed oils entirely.

The transcript discusses seed oils as a major health risk and part of a so-called “devil’s triad” contributing to obesity and diabetes. It asserts that a large share of U.S. adults over 45 are prediabetic or diabetic—64% by some data, rising to 75–78% if insulin use were measured—and claims that removing three factors—sugars, refined grains or refined tweeds, and seed oils—would eliminate the obesity and diabetes epidemics; pharmaceutical companies would suffer as a result. Seed oils are described as being extracted with hexane and solvents under very high temperature and pressure in chemical plants. What are marketed as heart-healthy golden vegetable oils (sunflower, safflower, and other seed oils) are said to be processed with high temperature and pressure, resulting in oils that are very high in omega-6 fats, which are suggested to be inflammatory signal molecules and should only be eaten in tiny amounts as calories. The speaker claims Americans get about 15% of their calories from seed oils, versus a recommended less than 0.5%; this is described as 30 times the evolutionary level and very damaging. Further, the process is criticized for hydrogenation, damage to molecular structures, deodorization, bleaching, and coloring to give a desirable appearance and scent, after which the oils are sold. The speaker asserts that hydrogenation and processing produce “rank grey rancid muck,” and that people would be repulsed by the initial oil before deodorization. The transcript asserts that seed oils are extremely damaging in quantity, especially in processed foods, while refined carbohydrates are also highly damaging. It cites studies from the late 1990s on rat models comparing seed oils with beef tallow and lard, finding major increases in tumorigenesis and tumor growth when seed oils were included at 3–4% of the diet. It claims that from around 1993 to 1999, studies increasingly showed that seed oils drive cancer if consumed above three to four percent, but that around 1998–1999 the system stopped these findings after calls were made. The speaker concludes: “All the evidence is there. That's the tip of the iceberg. Don't touch them.”

The "Healthy" Food You Need To AVOID EATING To Prevent Disease & Inflammation | Jeff Nobbs

Guests: Jeff Nobbs, Malcolm Gladwell

reSee.it Podcast Summary

Jeff Nobbs and Malcolm Gladwell discuss the controversial topic of seed oils and their impact on health. Nobbs argues that many public health organizations are beginning to recognize that seed oils, particularly those high in omega-6 fatty acids like linoleic acid, may not be safe and could be harmful. He emphasizes that much of the research supporting seed oils is based on observational studies that show correlation rather than causation, often relying on biomarkers like cholesterol rather than actual health outcomes. Nobbs explains that seed oils contribute to oxidative stress in the body, which can lead to inflammation and various health issues, including heart disease. He points out that populations that do not consume seed oils tend to have lower rates of heart disease. He highlights the importance of oxidized LDL cholesterol as a significant risk factor for heart disease, linking it to the consumption of seed oils. The conversation shifts to the prevalence of seed oils in the modern diet, with Nobbs listing common sources such as soybean oil, canola oil, and corn oil, which constitute a large portion of American caloric intake. He notes that these oils are found in many packaged foods and restaurant meals, making it difficult for individuals to avoid them. Nobbs also discusses testing options for individuals to assess their omega-6 levels, recommending Omega Quant as a starting point. He provides a historical overview of how seed oils became popular, tracing back to the introduction of Crisco in 1911 and the subsequent push for vegetable oils in the mid-20th century, particularly after President Eisenhower's heart attack. The discussion touches on the motivations behind the continued promotion of seed oils by some health professionals, attributing it to biases and reliance on observational studies. Nobbs argues that the focus should be on the types of fats consumed, particularly the high levels of omega-6 in seed oils, which he believes are detrimental to health. Nobbs shares his personal journey into nutrition and health, motivated by the loss of his parents to cancer. He emphasizes the need for a better understanding of food and its impact on health, leading him to create a healthier cooking oil alternative through his company, Zero Acre. This oil is produced through fermentation and aims to provide a neutral-tasting, high smoke point oil that is healthier than traditional seed oils. The podcast concludes with Nobbs sharing his health philosophy, which includes avoiding seed oils, refined sugars, and refined flours, while encouraging individuals to listen to their bodies and consume nutrient-dense foods. He stresses the importance of maintaining physical fitness, setting boundaries in work and relationships, and being mindful of personal health choices.

Inflammation is KILLING YOU! - 4 Ways To Reduce It TODAY! | Shawn Stevenson

Guests: Shawn Stevenson

reSee.it Podcast Summary

In today's society, we face unprecedented health challenges, largely due to stress and poor dietary choices. Many people mistakenly believe that seed oils, such as canola and soybean oil, are healthy alternatives, but they are highly processed and toxic. Research indicates that simply smelling these oils can damage DNA. The average person's fat cells now contain about 25% polyunsaturated fats, a significant increase from just 2-4% a century ago, which contributes to various health issues, including obesity and inflammation. The conversation around food and health often overlooks the importance of individual responses to dietary choices. For instance, many people are unaware of how processed foods and seed oils can lead to chronic inflammation and health problems. The average American consumes around 70 pounds of added sugar annually, which exacerbates health issues. Additionally, pesticides in our food supply can disrupt microbial gene expression, further impacting our health. To improve health, it is crucial to focus on nutrient-dense foods and understand the role of fats, particularly omega-3 fatty acids like DHA and EPA, which are essential for brain health. Studies show that higher intakes of these fats can enhance cognitive function and memory. However, many people struggle to obtain adequate amounts from plant sources alone. Moreover, the relationship between food and emotional well-being is significant. Poor nutrition can lead to increased aggression and relationship difficulties. Chronic diseases, often exacerbated by poor dietary habits, have become prevalent, highlighting the need for a shift in our understanding of health and nutrition. Ultimately, listening to our bodies and making informed dietary choices can lead to better health outcomes and improved quality of life.

One manifestation of type 2 diabetes is non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, which can be exacerbated by excessive seed oil consumption. The rise in chronic diseases globally, including obesity in pets, correlates with increased refined grain intake and sedentary lifestyles. Unique populations historically consuming high-carb diets, like the Japanese and Tucasenta, have low obesity and diabetes rates, suggesting that seed oils may be a key factor in metabolic diseases. Research indicates that seed oils can lead to overeating by affecting brain pathways, similar to THC. No long-lived populations are known to consume high amounts of seed oils without health issues. The Israeli Paradox highlights health problems in populations consuming seed oils. Studies show that seed oils can induce insulin resistance and contribute to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, which has surged in the U.S. since the 1980s. Chronic consumption of seed oils may lead to inflammation and oxidative stress, implicated in diseases like Alzheimer's. The Mediterranean diet, rich in monounsaturated fats, has shown benefits in reducing heart disease. Overall, reducing seed oil intake and focusing on healthier fats may improve health outcomes.
