Whats the deal with vegetable oils causing cancer?
Why do they do it?
Why do doctors and government agencies recommend eating known carcinogens?
https://archive.is/NrLsD
>Abstract
>In an eight-year controlled clinical trial of a diet high in polyunsaturated vegetable oils and low in saturated fat and cholesterol in preventing complications of atherosclerosis, 846 men were assigned randomly to a conventional diet or to one similar in all respects except for a substitution of vegetable oils for saturated fat. Fatal atherosclerotic events were more common in the control group (70 v.48; P<0·05). However, total mortality was similar in the two groups: 178 controls v. 174 experimentals, demonstrating an excess of non-atherosclerotic deaths in the experimental group. This was accounted for by a greater incidence of fatal carcinomas in the experimental group. 31 of 174 deaths in the experimental group were due to cancer, as opposed to 17 of 178 deaths in the control group (P=0·06).

yes, pufa seems to increase cancer rates and saturated fats seem to increase CVD mortality
so eat mufa

might not be pufa though, sometimes it's due to specific types of seed oils that have some other constituents that appear to be carcinogenic

I wonder if all of the news about people who cured cancer with weed is just a result of people deciding to forego traditional care in favor of getting high.
Of course the idea of endocannabinoid system stimulants having a positive effect on the immune system overall does seem potentially realistic, but avoiding doctors, who the 3rd leading cause of death, seems like more of a sure thing as far as death avoidance goes

Around the turn of the century, nutritionists were all singing the praise of pomegranate as a miracle food. The reason why is that some hollywood advertising expert had inherited a small pomegranate orchard in southern California so he decided that for the orchard to turn a bigger profit he had to get more people eating pomegranates, so he hired a bunch of scientists to do studies about how wonderful pomegranates were and eventually he was able to get his orchard to produce a lot of money that way.

The study you linked to suggests an increased incidence of fatal carcinomas in a group that consumed a diet high in polyunsaturated vegetable oils compared to a control group that consumed a diet high in saturated fats.

Firstly, not all vegetable oils are created equal. They vary in their composition of different types of fats, including monounsaturated fats, polyunsaturated fats (which include omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids), and saturated fats. The health effects of these fats can differ. Omega-3 fatty acids, for example, are generally considered beneficial for heart health, while a high intake of omega-6 fatty acids, without a corresponding intake of omega-3, may potentially contribute to inflammation and related health problems, including cancer. This is still a topic of ongoing research.

Secondly, the way in which vegetable oils are used can influence their health effects. For example, some vegetable oils are not stable at high temperatures and can break down into potentially harmful compounds when used for frying. There is some evidence linking consumption of foods fried in vegetable oils to an increased risk of diseases including cancer, although this is still a controversial topic and more research is needed.

>> No.15470741

>>15470737
Thirdly, it's important to remember that diet is just one factor that can influence cancer risk, and it's the overall pattern of diet and lifestyle that is most important for health, rather than the intake of any single food or nutrient.

The reason why doctors and government agencies recommend consuming vegetable oils is because they are a good source of unsaturated fats, which have been found to have beneficial effects on heart health, such as reducing levels of "bad" LDL cholesterol. They are recommended as a healthier alternative to foods high in saturated fats, such as butter and lard.

As for the company Ambrosia, it was selling "young blood transfusions" for a period of time under the guise of running a clinical trial. However, in February 2019, the company announced it had stopped testing the treatment, responding to concerns from the FDA. The FDA had issued a warning about companies offering young blood transfusions, stating that such treatments have no proven clinical benefits and are potentially harmful.

>> No.15470759

>>15466176
It's because it's practically impossible to conduct proper studies on human eating habits because what ever the effects of food may be are clearly minor and long term so any study would have to be long and highly controlled which is just not going to happen with people stuffing their faces with what ever they want. The best hope would probably be a long term prison experiment but experimenting on blacks has been antisemitic for a while now so that's out the window. You can't even really do good animal tests with food since the bodies react differently.
So you only really see obvious stuff like calories means fatties or add hock pseudoscience like this.

"seed oils" are primarily used for frying
frying produces acrolein
acrolein is A2 class carcinogen
you don't deep fry in butter, you spread it on slice of bread
you don't dip your bread in flavourless canola oil

if you started to deep fry everything in clarified butter, lard and tallow, you would get more heart attacks and more cancers as well

Like most cases, I apply basic common sense to that approach. One clearly shouldn't consume too much of the same thing or the same category of thing, in that case (highly processed) vegetable oil. So stick to one that is demonstrably good based on multiple studies (olive oil) and consume it with moderation. Occasionally, you can also consume something else of course (male should e.g. eat pumpkin seed oil) but again, with moderation. And as a general rule of thumb, eat as much raw (unprocessed) food as you can so veggies, fruits and dairy products. And if you can afford you should also try and eat organic food.

less demand only means price decreases extremely briefly, then production is adjusted down to match the new demand, and since the new demand is lower it means it's going to be more costly to produce each unit, and thus the price will end up higher

There is nothing wrong inherently with eating flax or sunflower seeds and the oils therein. But you're extracting the oil from a million seeds to use as cooking oil or frying oil. It is chemically extracted and processed to hell. Obviously it isn't healthy. There shouldn't even be a scientific study necessary for this. The food processing industry is literally evil. But then again, I'm a chemical engineer so I might end up at one of these companies and sell goyslop to losers while never eating it myself.
