A growing body of research continues to uncover the real culprits behind the rising rates of chronic illness in industrialized nations 🌍— and while sugar often gets the spotlight, there's another ingredient quietly causing harm in millions of kitchens:

👉 Industrial seed oils.

Not the “Heart Healthy” You’ve Been Told

Contrary to what we’ve been told for decades, industrial seed oils — like safflower, soybean, grapeseed, rice bran, canola (rapeseed), and cottonseed oils — are not heart-healthy ❤️‍🔥. Nor is margarine 🧈.

🚨 They are ultra-processed,

🚨 highly inflammatory, and

🚨 perceived by the body as foreign and toxic.

These oils are not natural — they do not exist in nature the way they're sold in stores.

Yet they’ve been marketed as miracle replacements for animal fats.

Why? simply because they are cheap to produce from abundent raw materials and industrial byproducts. 🔜 Profit 🤑

🏭 How Did These Toxic Oils End Up on Our Plates?

Industrial seed oils began as waste byproducts used in the manufacturing of candles 🕯️ and soap 🧼. But after the rise of electricity dimmed the candle market, Procter & Gamble saw an opportunity.

The public health tragedy began with the introduction of Crisco 😞.

💡 Procter & Gamble discovered a chemical process called hydrogenation — and just like that, toxic cottonseed oil became Crisco in the early 1900s.

A “revolution” in cooking fat was born… and the tragedy for public health began 😞.

📈 Soybean oil made its debut in the U.S. in the 1930s, followed by canola in the 1950s. Soon after, corn and safflower oils entered the scene. Before long, industrial seed oils flooded the American diet.

Cheap to manufacture and aggressively marketed, industrial seed oils quickly became kitchen staples — despite the fact that humans had never consumed these substances at any point in their evolutionary history.

🧪 How Are Industrial Seed Oils Made?

Creating these oils is anything but natural 👩‍🔬:

🌾 Seeds (soy, corn, cotton, rapeseed, etc.) are collected.
🔥 They're heated to extremely high temps, oxidizing the fats.
🧪 Then comes a petroleum-based solvent (like hexane) to extract the oil.
🤢 The result smells rancid — so they deodorize it (creating harmful trans fats in the process).
🎨 Chemicals are added to make it look appetizing.

👉 What you get is a highly inflammatory, nutrient-poor oil loaded with trans fats, chemical residues, and oxidized byproducts. And yes, it’s in nearly all processed foods 🍪🍟🥫.

😬 You’re Probably Eating Them Without Knowing It…

The #1 oil consumed in the U.S. today is partially hydrogenated soybean oil 🛢️ — and it’s hiding in everything from:

**You won't believe all the sh.t that’s in this stuff.**

🥜 peanut butter
🥖 baked goods
🥔 potato chips
🍝 frozen meals
🧁 frostings
🧈 margarine (like "I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter") — which is just soybean oil in disguise!

🧬 What’s the Real Harm?

The danger lies in the high Omega-6 content — especially linoleic acid.

This type of fat:

⚠️ Oxidizes easily

⚠️ Embeds in your cell membranes and fat tissues

⚠️ Increases risk of heart disease ❤️‍🩹

⚠️ Damages DNA molecules 🧬

⚠️ Raises your risk of cancer ☠️

📛 Frying or baking with these oils produces toxic fumes and compounds that have been shown to be carcinogenic.

💡 You Have a Choice!

You can EITHER:

❌ Keep eating industrially processed seed oils — from fast food to frozen dinners...

OR

✅ Choose the very best nourishing fats available at your local market.
