It’s not explicitly seed oil vs not. It’s the more modern processed oils (of which many seed oils you’ll find are) that you can’t create without modern tech. Olive oil, sesame, etc are fine. People have been using these for thousands of years.
Regardless, the science behind this is so political and complex none of us will get a definitive answer in our lifetimes. RFK jr has just as much of an agenda and the large corps profiting from these oils.
Keep an open mind and try things out. I’ve personally benefited from eating simpler. Nothing overly processed and trying to eat the way my ancestors likely did. Chestertons fence applies just as much to diet and nutrition as it does software.

- tengbretson 2y agoTaking canola oil as an example– pressed canola oil is too impure and has a nasty stink to it, so in order to be used in food it has to be refined. This refining usually involves: Extracting it using hexane, degumming with maleic anhydride and/or citric acid, neutralizing with sodium hydroxide, bleaching with clay, activated charcoal, and/or hydrogen peroxide. Then dewaxed with some combination of methyl ethyl ketone, toluene, dipropylene glycol and ethylene glycol, and finally deoderized via steam distillation.
