S12 EP15: Should You Stay Away from Seed Oil?


Listen Later

Seed oils are having a big moment, with many health experts raising concerns about their detrimental effects. Our guest expert, Steven Rofrano, warns that seed oils constitute one-third of our diet and are harmful to our bodies. This alarming statistic brought us to a full stop. In today’s episode we ask Steven if avoiding seed oils is feasible, and how we can make informed choices at the grocery store without a food science degree. 

Steven is the founder of Ancient Crunch, and he believes that classic American foods can be both healthy and delicious, AND made without toxic ingredients. We don’t want you to feel a sense of hopelessness with the amount of things that you have to fight against in order to be healthy. Listen for some practical advice on navigating grocery aisles and identifying trustworthy brands, because it’s NOT too much to ask for food that’s healthy, convenient and delicious!
