>seed oils are ... le bad!
im 99% certain this is a meme

literally all that japs eat is food fried in seed oils and they are famed about their longevity apparently
other countries too
yeah, im sure that absolute chemical shit like Crisco isnt good for you, but why would, lets say, cold-pressed Sunflower oil be bad...?

i really dont see how a cold-pressed("extra virgin) sunflower or corn oil for example is much worse than EVOO for you?
>>
>>20937451
Seeds are designed to not be eaten. Then humans come along and artificially farm them and concentrate the bullshit in them.
Some seeds are okay but sunflower seeds and corn oil are are the worst.
Long story short, look up the fatty acid composition of different oils.

The extraction and refinement process of seed oils requires high amounts of heat and many filtering and deodorizing steps just to make something that is consumable. They are higher in inflammatory compounds and toxic byproducts similar to those produced when cooking oil reaches its smoke point. They were original used as an industrial lubricant for tanks in WW2, then animal feed which caused the animals to die, then they figured out how to make it just non-toxic enough for goy to eat it up and then literally paid the AHA to make a bunch of bullshit up that it was better for heart health than lard or butter.

There is too much propaganda on each side: Corpos selling industrial machinery lubricant and general grifters trying to be the next Dr. Oz or making seed oils a political issue.

If I consume rapeseed oil, I get heaps of acne. If I consume clarified butter, lard, tallow, butter, etc. I do not get acne. That's just how it works for my corporeal form. I beckon everyone experiment with what works for them instead of
>muh sneeed oils
>muh Japan
>muh only patriots consume XYZ lipids
Lastly, fuck your Japan evidence. Look up the Israeli paradox and the French paradox.

Isreali Jews consume heaps of seed oils and are generally health conscious yet incur HIGH levels of heart complications. The French consume heaps of saturated fats like butter and tallow, but have LOW level of heart complication. Perhaps there are cultural issues at play. Perhaps there are genetic issues. The truth will never come out because it is too profitable to have a clear consensus.

>>
>>20937451
Didn't read the rest of thread or OP because it's probably insane/schizotypal.

Here's the secret bucko,
Don't consume free oils. Eat a whole food, plant based diet.
Eat nuts and seeds sparingly. Consume less than 10% of your calories from fat.
Eat mostly grains and starches, and consume three or four pieces of fruit in addition to green leafy vegetables, and whatever other vegetables you like.
This advice destroys the pharmaceutical industry, destroys the healthcare industry, and allows you to fully follow the first precept, to abstain from taking life.

I stopped eating sneed oils years ago because I saw some study that said they were estrogenic and would make my dick smaller. it was something you only saw on /fit/ type places and mainstream news said it was a conspiracy theory. now mainstream places are saying to stop eating sneed oils, but only because they're "processed" and use "chemicals" to refine them. if that was the reason I read about years ago I probably would have ignored it and kept eating them. what changed to bring normies in but for completely different reasons?

They also eat a lot of fish. omega-3 might counteract some harms done by omega-6s.


But one thing that is never talked about is that you don't need these oils to be heart healthy. Humans have been doing fine without them from before humans could be considered humans. You don't need them. Neither for health, nor culinary.
>>
>>20938073
>omega-3 might counteract some harms done by omega-6s.
thats not how it works. huge omega 6 intake stops you from using your omega 3 at all
>>
>>20937543
are you being intentionally disingenuous? eastern europe has a life expectancy 10 years lower than western europe
>>
>>20938086
No. Omega-6 and omega-3 compete over the same pathway to convert into longer chain fatty acids, with omega-6 beating omega-3. So you're right if you get your omega-3 from plant sources. But omega-3 in fish is already in its longer form DHA.

Seeds are meant to be eaten. You're one of many iterations of externalized sex organs created by plants to spread shit, piss, and seeds across the globe.
>>
>>20938116
The problem is that in the modern western diet there is so much omega-6 that you'd have to down an entire bottle of fish oil pills a day to counteract it. And that's assuming those fish oil pills aren't rancid.

The only way to get a good ratio is to avoid seed oils.

All you need to know is that we used to use oils like peanut oil until suddenly those oils were declared "bad and unhealthy" and everywhere switched to using cheaper, more profitable seed oils. And then after years it was determined that no, there is absolutely no reason to believe the more expensive oils everyone used were "unhealthy" in any way, shape, or form.

>why would, lets say, cold-pressed Sunflower oil be bad
Definitely not as bad for you as most vegetable oils. The problem with most vegetable oils is they're rancid by the time you buy them because of the heat they've been exposed to during the manufacturing process.
If you're going to eat vegetable oils, the cold-pressed ones will be the least bad ones, for sure.

Because they're stupid. Stupid people get all stupid about stupid things. They'll switch to some other stupid thing later.

When you were a kid it was animal fats that were bad and should be avoided, but they moved on from that.
>>
>>20938257
It's easy to get cheap lard if you make a lot of bacon, just strain it down and scrape off the gunk and protein. Or you can buy fatback and simmer it down to get pure lard.
>>
>>20938601
i dont even eat much bacon, i just go to the butcher and ask him to trim me some fresh fat from the pig, preferably neck and belly
its very cheap, you just cut it in pieces and throw in the pan and fry for 20-30 mins. you render shitloads of fat and also get the benefit of lots of tasty pork rinds to snack on
>>
>>20938627
I mean, if you already get bacon you can get some fat from that while eating the bacon, but if you really just need fat you can always cook down the fat trimmings that way. I probably have 2-3 pounds of unrefined lard in my fridge from bacon and pork shoulder, all you have to do is mix it with some water to pull out the scum, scrape it off 1-3 times, and then heat it gently at boiling temperature to get the water to steam off and put in a jar. Works perfectly for frying or as a general cooking fat.
>>
>>20938631
yeah, if you eat lots of bacon on a daily basis its a great idea to just save the grease, i usually really eat just bacon, and whenever i do i usually just cook eggs or whatever else i eat it with in the same fat
also im yuropoor, so our "bacon" here is a bit different than the american one, here its usually more of a deli type of meat thats usually "smoked" so not great for rendering fat

>mix it with some water to pull out the scum
you know, ive actually never done this, i usually just pour it in jars just as it, this is not a bad idea. mine never went bad since i put em in the freezer, but i presume it could last even longer if i "clean it" like that
>>
>>20937451
show me where to buy and the price of this mystical cold-pressed sunflower oil
>>
>>20938692
American bacon is usually just salted belly cuts, so depending on how lucky you are with the segment cut, it's great for getting fat out of. Cook the strips low and slow, get the fat nice and rendered, don't overcook the meat, and enjoy the bacon.
Then strain out the hard bits and add to a jar, when you build up enough, you can gently boil some water and add the fat to it to slightly emulsify. This gets the water and fat mixed together, and when you chill it, the sediment will pull to the bottom of the fat and top of the water. Scrape the gunk off, and either store and use sooner, or repeat if you want longer lasting, more pure bacon lard.
>>
>>20938435

>>
>>20938709
ok, now show me the price and tell me again that's what people use in every day cooking
>>
>>20938704
yeah, fucking love american bacon, here its usually is more like a type of ham instead. there was this place near me selling exactly that type of american bacon and it was so good. way cheaper than what its usually sold here too, but havent seen it in a while.

i think i dont need that water tip for this method tho >>20938627, since i cut in in pretty big chunks and theres pretty much no tiny bits left in the liquid. i just strain it through a sieve or a cheesecloth
>>
>>20938714
its like 4 euros for a liter in my country, which still makes it like 4 times cheaper than EVOO and like 6 times cheaper than butter.
Maybe twice as expensive as regular cheapo seed oil
>>
>>20938727
Yeah, if you're getting pure fat you can basically just use a ladle or strain it out since it's only going to have small bits at most. This just works for fatty bacon because the protein that comes off the meat, while offering meaty flavor, will make the fat not last as long.
>>
>>20938733
You pay 16 eur/liter for EVOO, and 24 eur/kg for butter, but you can buy cold pressed sunflower oil for 4 eur/liter?
I am in the same single EU market and EVOO is 10 eur/l. The cheapest cold pressed sunflower oil i could find is twice that. Meanwhile regular sunflower oil is 1.5 eur/l.

It’s probably a meme in the same vain as meat being unhealthy for you. “Too much” of just about anything is bad. Too much hydrogen is bad for you. Telling people not to eat meat was their method to curb the cost of meat production. If they stopped putting sugar in everything and used land that is used to grow sugar to grow actual food instead, we could probably solve world hunger. I know a lot of sugar is from stuff like apples and other fruits but my point is that that fruit could have been actual food.

They pretty much are though. The life expectancy in my country is like 10 years less than in Japan.
It's full of fat people, and people usually don't give a fuck about eating healthy. Heart problems are very common.
I don't think sunflower seed oil is less healthy at all than other seed oils, the problem is the general quality of and culture around food.

I'll take a crack. Hexane is used to extract the seed oils. Trace hexane does make its way into the final product so we're eating it every time we eat the seed oil. That's about all that could be said for the "unnatural industrial chemical hydrocarbon solvents" argument. There are better reasons why it shouldn't be consumed in the quantities many consume today. But the poster would have had to actually educate themselves to recount those instead of simply jumping on the bandwagon.

Their research was peer reviewed and published like any other. They only recently discovered the cholesterol you eat doesn't automatically become blood cholesterol. This isn't the first common health knowledge type research to be superseded, and not the last.
All researchers do is find correlations. Some are at the molecular level, some are just among sample groups of people. It's all valid research and moving on from false consensus is part of the scientific method.

Caucasoids can digest dairy products. Many other ethnic groups will instead suffer gastrointestinal distress for doing so. This is objective fact.
