Welcome back to another episode of the podcast! On this episode, I have a special guest Dr. Idrees Mughal on the show and we are going to be tackling one of the most persistent myths in nutrition: The Alleged Harmful Effect of Seed Oils.

In this episode, we discuss: 

• Why seed oils have been demonized online so much
• Do seed oils cause inflammation?
• Are they easily oxidized?
• Are they responsible for the obesity epidemic? 
• Will cutting them prevent sunscreen? 

And more.

Tune in to the show to hear a masterclass on critically evaluating research and identifying misleading info .
