Have you ever told someone you’re avoiding vegetable oils and got a blank stare in return? Although companies defend them as “heart-healthy,” polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs) derived from soybean, safflower, sunflower, corn, sesame, peanut, rice bran, grapeseed, and cottonseed are anything but good for you. These factory-made products turn a big profit while wreaking havoc inside the human body. And they are ubiquitous in our food system, finding their way into condiments, sauces, packaged foods, restaurant fryers, and even spice mixes!
