It's one thing to be aware of these toxic oils, the challenge is getting them out of your diet. We have far too many deceptive products sold. "Olive Oil" Mayo that has a trace of olive oil but is still primarily canola oil. 🤦♂️
Thank you, Dr. Shanahan. I'm a lay person, but I believe one of the most important things MAHA can do it to reinstate home ec in our schools. It's important for people to know these oils are dangerous to their health and that of their children. But until kids learn how to make their own meals, it won't do any good. They'll still be primarily eating processed meals. I'm a longtime home cook. And it has paid off throughout my life. This last year I've been in recuperation since nearly dying from Septic Shock (from a ruptured hernia I didn't know I had). I've cooked almost all the meals my husband and I've eaten in the last year. It's how I can control what kind of oils and fats we eat, because, as you know Sepsis destroys everything it can in your body and this is the only way I can rebuild. Yesterday when I saw my skin doctor he said how amazingly my skin and hair recovered. And I'm 73. Yes, I don't have a job, but I also have been exhausted and need a walker to get around. If I can make meals without seed oils and that have the protein, fiber, probiotics that I need — so I'm not eating processed food — then young people can, too. They just have no idea what it is to cook, other than watch Top Chef competitions.
We changed our diet a while ago to only include real olive oil, butter and ghee, but you added layers to my understanding of the metabolic consequences of seed oils. Thanks.
Tucker Goodrich focuses on seed oils, covering scientific studies and metabolic chemistry, in his substack. Highly recommended for the more technically inclined.
This is an important message, though it could've been improved by making it look less like a book advertisement. Those references could've been put at the end.

The only hard part about getting them out of your diet is learning to cook for yourself and not depending on fast food.
Or like the Shake Shack "tallow" fries flash fried at the factory...in seed oils!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not that hard really, I’ve been cooking my family’s food for years. Though I much admit i used organic canola oil in the past.
I now cook with raw jersey milk ghee. Its the bomb and its hard to burn as well
I would read some of the latest articles @mindandmatter substack
Seed oils increase appetite as well
A weakness of Substack is not having a decent search function. We have to provide exact links. Searching for mindandmatter finds nothing. 😢
Lack of a decent search function is one of my constant complaints to Substack.

What about sesame seed oil?
I understand to look for cold pressed oils NOT hydrogenated oils
I am glad attention is being brought to the health danger of these highly toxic oils.
