Too much omega-6, especially from seed oils, can fuel chronic inflammation. Balance is key—aim for more omega-3s, fewer processed oils, and know that even carnivore diets can meet essential fat needs.

🌻 The Hidden Ingredient Making America Sick: The Seed Oil Crisis
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.

Stubborn Weight Gain? "Estrogen Dominance" May Be The Cause!
Estrogen Dominance isn’t just about high estrogen — it’s the imbalance between estrogen and progesterone. Even low estrogen can be problematic if progesterone is lower. Estrogen dominance disrupts thyroid function and metabolism. To rebalance: support progesterone, block aromatase, detox stored estrogen, and reduce estrogen activity. Carbs matter — long-term low-carb can worsen aromatase. A balanced diet with liver-loving, estrogen-clearing foods is key to hormone health.
