Seed Oils Debate

The discussion dives into the polarized views surrounding seed oils, with some claiming they contribute to the obesity epidemic while others point to meat as the culprit. Layne emphasizes the complexity of dietary impacts, noting that while seed oils have increased overall calorie intake, the relationship between their consumption and health outcomes is nuanced. He highlights that randomized control trials often show neutral or positive effects when substituting polyunsaturated fats for saturated fats, challenging the notion that seed oils are inherently harmful.
