Before harvesting sunflowers and rape, farmers spray the crops with herbicide to ensure that the plants mature at the same time. This process is also called desiccation. One of the most common sprays is glyphosate. For this reason, the oil obtained from plants that have been forced to mature and then harvested and processed has a high glyphosate content. This high glyphosate content is devastating to our health. Amongst other things, it inhibits the production of lactase enzyme in the base of the intestinal epithelial cells. So many people are lactose intolerant.
When I have recovered after my cancer surgery, a doctor (whom I should have met earlier and I am sure I could have avoided the operation) told me that basically I could eat anything in moderation, but should stay away from 3 types of food:
- these oils
- MSG
- artificial sweeteners.
That was 15 years ago, and so I am keeping this advice as best as I can. And I am looking and feeling great for my age (except for two chronic conditions that were caused by the surgery 🙁)
However, a question: grapeseed oil???
Here in Hungary we have it cold-pressed and it is said to have great health benefits.
Because nothing says this is fit for human consumption like:
- a 70 minute wash with "a solvent"
- a 20 minute wash with sodium hydroxide
- a further bleaching process
However, we're not quite done yet because the product smells so bad they have to use a "steam injection process" to remove the stench from the final product.
I'm reminded that a friend of mine knew of a girl working in a lab, doing cancer research: the best way to have the cancer cells reproduce in vitro was vegetable oils and sugar. 'nough said.
There are so much information, all different and which one do you choose. Personally do not eat any of them and use only olive oil and peanut oil sometimes, all are organic. The olive oil I get from Amazon is from small farms in Italy, the wild olive oil is excellent and light. The problem if you enjoy french fries, restaurants use Canola oil. I enjoy french fries but avoid them but sneak in an order once in a while. Canola oil really puts on the weight when one eats in restaurants, etc. With all the different information remember we live in a realm of duality, everything has it opposites. Be just like Frances, know and listen to your body, if you feel off, or your body tries to eliminate it quickly, just do not go there no matter what you read. Much love to everyone.
If you're after getting the right balance of Omega 3 to Omega 6, you'll have your work cut out for you. Most of the cuts of pork and chicken that are enjoyable (the fattier portions) are very high in Omega 6 because of the diet these monogastric animals consume. Forget ever eating bacon. It's a significant source of Omega 6 even though it doesn't have to be that way if a pig were on an ancestral diet.
But I think the tide is turning, and the Ray Peat, Bio Energetic people are seeing vindication about the dangers of both Omega 3 and Omega 6 as a source of PUFA. I'm with them. Just avoid PUFA altogether. Not just seed oils, but cold fish oil and any animals fed a high grain / soy meal diet.

What's wrong with it?
This video explains how canola oil is made. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cfk2IXlZdbI

When will you write about the hidden dangers of Vitamin D (Cholecalciferol) Simon... The main ingredient in RAT POISON.
I guess your hands or cut off if you have a company producing this absolute trash and your realise that it's poisoning people.

Yes, Mercola has warned of this too. Only use good quality olive oil in moderation, butter, beef dripping and other animal fats.

Okay, so which specific oils can I use?
So what about black curmin oil?
In addition to olive and coconut oils, what are “good” oils?
What about sesame oil or avocado? I am trying to avoid those listed here. Thanks
I have seen some of these oils "organic" and/or "cold pressed."
Were these lies on the labels?
