This article addresses the popular but likely incorrect notion that seed oils are detrimental to health, often labelled as inflammatory and linked to heart disease. It clarifies that seed oils are vegetable oils extracted from seeds, such as soybean, canola, and sunflower oils, and their bad reputation stems largely from their high linoleic acid content. The author examines claims against seed oils by referencing scientific studies and reviews, ultimately suggesting that current human research does not support these negative claims. Instead, evidence indicates that seed oils can be beneficial for cardiovascular health and do not necessarily cause inflammation, advocating for a focus on overall diet rather than demonising specific ingredients.
