Our switch from cooking with animal fats, like butter, to cooking with vegetable oils runs back more than fifty years. It was thought that this would lower cholesterol and the rate of heart attacks.
Has switching to vegetable oils benefited our health overall or is the trend going the other way?
Dr. Joseph Mercola says that “sugar is not intrinsically evil…, however, seed oil is.” Dr. Mercola is a natural health physician and doctor of osteopathy who writes extensively on body detoxification.
What is the hidden number one source of seed oil (aka vegetable oil) in our diets?
“A lot of health experts believe that…lowering the sugar is the way to get healthy…” says Dr. Mercola.
“But when you look at almost all processed foods, there’s a lot more seed oils and there is sugar.”
What does research over recent years signal about vegetable and seed oils and cancer?
