Seed oils are chemically extracted using hexane and high heat, resulting in oxidized, rancid fats. The process includes deodorizing and bleaching with additional chemicals. Because they are GMO, seed oils contain traces of glyphosate, a toxic herbicide. Healthier alternatives for cooking include butter, ghee, tallow, coconut oil, and olive oil.

Seed oils use hexane, which is a solvent, to chemically extract their oils using high heats, additional chemicals to deodorize, bleach, and create this oxidated rancid fat. They're GMO, which means they have traces of glyphosate, which is an herbicide, which is really toxic. And you say they're safe? I don't think so. Instead, cook with butter, ghee, tallow, coconut oil, and olive oil.

"Seed oils are called polyunsaturated fatty acids." "Poly meaning many." "Unsaturated mean a type of oil that it's very very fragile and unstable." "Now the first thing you need to know is that when they talk about vegetable oils they're really talking about seed oils." "It comes from corn, soy, canola, things like that." "They're considered one part of the ultra processed food category which they use industrial processing where they're heating, adding hexane, which is a solvent that's in gasoline." "And so they go through this incredible refining process where you end up with this very refined empty oil." "And one of the reasons they do this is so it can sit on the shelf for a long period of time." "We consume like 25 to 30% of our calories with this right here."

Ancestral diet revolution, how vegetable oils and processed foods destroy our health and how to recover. The oxidative stress that occurs with smoking kind of poisons us for about six months to a year after quitting. But we consume the seed oils, right? It's going to poison us for about three years after just one serving in cooking oil. So these oils were never meant for fuel like other fats. And the biggest damaging effect from these seed oils is what they do to your mitochondria. And this is why seed oils lead to insulin resistance. Of course, from there, have a fatty liver, obesity, heart disease, increase your risk for cancer, etc.

Vegetable oil is described as highly toxic and not real food, belonging in car engines instead. Manufacturing requires heat, chemicals, and high pressure, which oxidizes delicate seed oils. Consumption of oxidized oils like soy, canola, corn, safflower, and sunflower creates free radicals, causing inflammation, heart disease, and cancer. Restaurants use these oils in a carcinogenic way by repeatedly heating and reusing them. A University of Minnesota researcher found toxic aldehydes in fast food french fries, which are known to cause gene mutation, alter RNA and DNA, and trigger massive inflammation. The recommendation is to avoid industrial seed oils as much as possible.

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.

In this Wide Awake Media podcast conversation, host Didi Denslow and guest Ivor Cummins—a biochemical engineer, nutrition expert known as the Fat Emperor—discuss health paradigms, seed oils, geopolitics, and emerging technologies, with a recurring emphasis on waking up to structured power dynamics. Seeds oils and the “devil’s triad” - Cummins presents a framework he calls the “devil’s triad” to explain modern obesity and diabetes trends: sugars, refined grains or refined tweeds, and seed oils. He cites American data indicating 64% of adults over 45 are prediabetic or diabetic, suggesting the triad drives these conditions. Cutting out sugars, refined carbohydrates, and seed oils is portrayed as a path to reversing obesity and diabetes epidemics. - Seed oils are described as being extracted with hexane and solvents under high heat/pressure. They include sunflower, safflower, rapeseed (and other seed-derived oils). He states they are high in omega-6 fats, used as signaling molecules in inflammatory processes, and should be kept to very low dietary levels (current US intake around 15% of calories versus a recommended under 0.5%). He notes issues in processing: hydrogenation and molecular damage, plus deodorizing, bleaching, and color adjustments that mask natural signals to avoid consumption. - He contrasts seed oils with natural fats from real foods: olives (olive oil), animal fats like lard and tallow, and butter, which are deemed acceptable. He references historical and industry context: seed oils originated from lubricants used in engines (and later hydrogenated for food), with Crisco marking their rise; he attributes a shift in public health trends to decisions in the mid- to late-20th century, including influential thoughts by Ancel Keys on saturated fats. - The discussion also touches the economics and incentives: seed oils are cheap, shelf-stable, and favored by global supply chains and processed foods; this is linked to industry strategies and ties between food, pharma, and academic funding. Some guests’ positions align on seed oils as a major driver of chronic disease, though Cummins also acknowledges the role of refined carbohydrates and sugars. Diet, personal change, and practical guidance - The host shares personal experience: eliminating seed oils improved health, including belly fat reduction. - Repertoire of alternative fats suggested includes high-quality olive oil, coconut oil, tallow, lard from well-raised pigs (with caveats about omega-6 content), and avocado oil as a more expensive option. Geopolitics, digital identity, and cultural shifts - Digital ID and civil liberties: Ireland’s progress toward digital ID is discussed, illustrating a “boiling frog” dynamic: government IDs exist but may become mandatory over time. Cummins underscores civil disobedience, awareness, and lobbying as means to resist, arguing that politicians report to higher, unelected networks. He asserts EU structures (EU Commission, European Parliament) mimic Soviet-era governance, creating a centralized power apparatus. - Hate speech law in Ireland: Cummins describes an earlier hate speech framework (1986 incitement to hatred) as effective, and a proposed newer framework with broad, protected classes as a potential threat to civil rights, warning that the pre-crime model resembles Minority Report, 1984, and Brave New World. He suggests public scrutiny of whom politicians report to. - Global networks and governance: The conversation invokes a historical view of global power networks (Rhodes, Milner, Rothschilds, Rockefellers) and institutions like the Council on Foreign Relations, Bilderberg, Trilateral Commission, and the CIA. Cummins sees these organizations as orchestrating global policy and economy, with a current sense of tension due to BRICS dynamics, shifting American leadership, and challenges to the old oligarchies. - Immigration and demographic strategy: He cites Denmark, Hungary, Poland, and Switzerland as examples with restrictive immigration policies and self-sufficiency requirements. Denmark, for instance, is highlighted for its stringent residency rules and crime data transparency on migrants. He contrasts Ireland’s relatively permissive approach to immigration with these models, discussing the Kalergi Plan as a shorthand for a demographic strategy, and argues there has been a deliberate, years-long push to alter European demographics, partly framed by climate discourse and social narratives. - Climate narrative and AI: Cummins notes perceived weaknesses in the climate-change narrative, acknowledging growing awareness and industry signals that climate policies may be economically unsustainable. He predicts data centers and AI infrastructure will continue to drive energy demand, while asserting AI is a tool with significant rote-task capability but no true sentience. He argues the public is increasingly skeptical about climate catastrophism, while acknowledging the real-world shift toward data-driven, centralized control. Solutions and events - Awareness and education are repeatedly stressed as essential first steps. Cummins envisions a non-conspiratorial, docudrama-style approach to explain power politics and history, aiming to reach a mass audience with credible, non-fringe framing. - Concrete steps discussed include focusing on Denmark-like models for immigration policy, local and national political engagement (email campaigns to MPs, peaceful in-person events like Ireland’s IRL forum), and media reform initiatives to counterbalance globalist influence. - He promotes practical financial preparedness (physical gold and silver) as protective measures amid expected market volatility and potential fiat-currency depreciation. Closing note - The interview ends with a reiteration to avoid seed oils, stay awake, and engage in informed civic action. The speakers emphasize a broad, systemic view of health, governance, and technology, urging proactive public discourse and engagement to influence policy directions.

Seed oils, such as soybean and canola oil, have been a topic of debate regarding their impact on human health. In this video, the speaker responds to a fellow YouTuber's position that seed oils are neutral or beneficial for humans. The speaker presents studies that suggest seed oils may be harmful, including evidence of increased oxidized LDL, the presence of carcinogens in cooking oil fumes, and the negative effects of seed oils on insulin sensitivity. The speaker also critiques the use of meta-analyses that include flawed trials in supporting the idea that seed oils are benign. Overall, the speaker argues that the best-conducted trials indicate that seed oils are harmful for humans.

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.”

Seed oils such as canola, corn, and soybean are ultra-processed and high in unstable omega-6 fats. Heating or prolonged storage causes them to oxidize, creating free radicals that lead to oxidative stress, damaging proteins, cells, and DNA. These oils also promote chronic inflammation by disrupting the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, leading to inflammation in the gut, brain, joints, and blood vessels. Seed oils worsen insulin resistance, damage mitochondria, and accelerate aging. Their increased use in food production has contributed to rising rates of obesity, heart disease, and metabolic dysfunction. Companies use them because they are inexpensive and extend shelf life, but they negatively impact health.

One speaker claims seed oils are falsely accused of causing Alzheimer's and cancer, stating research shows no evidence of harm and suggests they're beneficial. Another speaker argues seed oils are harmful due to chemical extraction using hexane and high heat, leading to oxidized, rancid fats. They also claim seed oils are GMO, containing traces of the herbicide glyphosate. They recommend cooking with butter, ghee, tallow, coconut oil, and olive oil instead.

Speaker 0 raises concern about seed oils. "Seed oils are one of the most unhealthy ingredients that we have in foods." "Seed oils, The reason they're in the foods is because they're heavily subsidized. They're very very cheap but they are associated with all kinds of very very serious illnesses including body wide inflammation Right. Which affects all of our health. It's one of the worst things you can eat, and it's almost impossible to avoid." "If you eat any processed food, you're gonna be eating seed oil." The speaker emphasizes the prevalence of seed oils in processed foods today.

Seed oils, extracted from seeds like soybeans, corn, and sunflowers, are now staples in cooking and processed foods. Concerns have arisen about their impact on health, with claims that they cause inflammation, weight gain, and heart disease. Unlike olive oil, which comes from fruit and contains monounsaturated fats, seed oils generally have higher levels of polyunsaturated omega-6 fats, such as linoleic acid. Omega-6 is essential and must be obtained from foods like nuts, seeds, meat, and eggs. The central question is whether the increased consumption of seed oils is detrimental to health.

Seed oils such as canola, corn, and soybean are ultra-processed and high in unstable omega-6 fats that oxidize when heated or stored for extended periods. This oxidation creates free radicals, leading to oxidative stress that damages proteins, cells, and DNA. Seed oils also promote chronic inflammation by disrupting the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, which can cause inflammation in the gut, brain, joints, and blood vessels. Consumption of seed oils worsens insulin resistance, damages mitochondria, and accelerates aging. The increased use of seed oils in food production has contributed to rising rates of obesity, heart disease, and metabolic dysfunction. Companies continue to use them due to their low cost and ability to extend shelf life, despite the negative health consequences.
