🧪 Once used in soap and candles, seed oils like soy, canola, and corn now saturate nearly every packaged food on the market. Marketed as “heart healthy,” these ultra-processed oils are cheap, inflammatory, and never meant for human consumption. It’s time to rebel against what’s really in your food.

Dr. Chris Knobbe links the surge in chronic diseases—like obesity and diabetes—to the rise of seed oil consumption. From 1922–1987, obesity rose 600% while seed oil intake jumped from 78 to 497 calories/day. Seed oils damage metabolism, promote inflammation, and are nutrient-poor. Once used as machine oil, they now make up ⅓ of U.S. calories. To avoid them: skip packaged foods, eat whole foods, and cook with healthy fats like butter or olive oil.

This post explores how metabolic damage and inflammation—fueled by harmful seed oils—drive chronic diseases like autoimmunity, diabetes, and cancer. Dr. Cate Shanahan highlights the dangers of refined polyunsaturated seed oils (the “Hateful Eight”) found in processed foods, which promote inflammation and disrupt metabolism. She advocates returning to traditional, stable fats like butter, ghee, and olive oil to restore health and immunity.

A new study suggests vegetarians are about twice as likely to experience depression as meat-eaters. Contributing factors may include not just nutrition, but social isolation, guilt over animal welfare, and demographic trends. Depression may also lead some people to adopt vegetarianism rather than result from it.

Vegetable oils like canola, soy, and corn are highly processed, oxidize when heated, and promote inflammation—raising the risk of heart disease, cancer, and dementia. Often made from GMO crops and loaded with glyphosate, they’re anything but healthy. At Comfort Keto, we use only clean, nourishing fats like grass-fed butter, coconut oil, and olive oil—never toxic vegetable oils. Your body deserves better. 💛🧈🥥

Most supermarket and fast food oils—like soy, corn, and canola—are industrially processed seed oils high in omega-6 fats, especially linoleic acid, which contributes to inflammation, heart disease, and even cancer. These harmful oils are hidden in nearly all processed foods. The solution? Ditch seed oils and choose clean, natural fats that nourish your body and support your health.
