5x greater intake of seed oils. Place your bets!?

What do you think would happen if people were put on different diets under strictly controlled conditions, 16.5 vs 3.1 g seed oils/1000 kcal per day. Ad lib.

Rebranding GLP-1Ra & SGLT2i as “CIM”   O_o

Context: I’ve been a follower of and advocate for low carb diets for over 20 years. For many reasons. But this new gen of ketards is setting us back decades.

Rant warning.

First story is about the majestic GLP-1Ra (eg, semaglutide and tirzepatide). They act in the brain to suppress appetite very effectively. People report an inability to “clean their plates” like they used to. They eat less and lose fat. Clear victory for…..

Seed oils. | The poor, misunderstood calorie

You asked for it. I’ve written about linoleic acid many times going back about a decade, long before the “seed oil” fiasco. 

[Patreon link]

Eg, Molested fats, and inflammatory, trans, or linoleate.

Also, of relevance: Marijuana (see below)

Older theories were that it induced a pro-inflammatory environment (or anti-anti-inflammatory), but one of my main conclusions was where it was found. What foods?

As a percentage of what’s actually consumed providing the bulk linoleic acid, it’s snacks, donuts,,, empty calories. So was it the inflammatory or trans fat aspect that causes metabolic problems, or is it confounded? 

Adiposink revisited?

More fapping fat-trapping? Or the all new pull model of obesity?
