Seed Oils Are the Missing Link to Rising Chronic Diseases
According to Saladino, it was the introduction of linoleic acid in their diets that made the ancient Egyptians fat and sick. He also refers to a report by Jeff Nobbs,19 which found that 6 in 10 Americans have a chronic disease, and heart disease, asthma, cancer and diabetes have increased 700% since 1935.
During this time, Americans have been smoking and drinking less, exercising more and eating “healthier” according to conventional guidelines to lower saturated fat and sodium. Nobbs, too, believes vegetable oil is the missing link that explains why Americans keep getting sicker:
“[C]hronic disease and obesity rates continue to rise. All the while, vegetable oil has steadily and stealthily made its way into our pantries, restaurants, and packaged foods, now contributing 699 calories per day to our diets, or about 20% of everything we eat.
Is vegetable oil the missing link? If vegetable oil is indeed the hidden culprit behind today's chronic disease epidemic, it's an elegant and simple solution to explain why chronic disease and obesity continue to rise, even as we adhere to public health advice.
I'm convinced that our wars against red meat, saturated fat, cholesterol, and sodium may be misguided. Fighting those battles may be like focusing on the sidekicks when the true villain pulling all the strings is still hiding in the shadows. It's time to shine a light on that slippery villain, our possible public health enemy number one: vegetable oil.”

It is vital that you reduce your intake of industrially processed seed oils as much as you can. This means eliminating all of the following oils:
Soy |
Corn |
Canola |
Safflower |
Sunflower |
Peanut |
Grape seed |
Rice bran |
Olive and avocado oil should also be on the list, as they are commonly adulterated, and even pure olive oil is loaded with linoleic acid. To do this, you’ll need to avoid nearly all ultraprocessed foods, fast foods and restaurant foods. This is why it is so important to prepare as much of your food as you can in your home so you know what you are eating and, in the case of seed oils — what you’re not....."
