Many people have learned that seed oils (soybean oil, canola oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, cottonseed oil, etc.) are not good for you. For better health, olive oil and avocado oil are preferred.
So companies have started making products with only olive oil and avocado oil. Even though these products are much more expensive, people are buying them for the promise of no seed oils.
The problem? The companies are not honest. They attach labels to these products claiming 100% avocado oil, or 100% olive oil, but it just isn't true.
The University of California at Davis published a study about a month ago in which they tested a number of food products for authenticity and label accuracy.

In this summary, a checkmark in the far right column is good. The lack of a checkmark is bad, indicating false labeling.
Olive oil, particularly when it is extra virgin and minimally processed, is good for you. We consumed olive oil for millennia. This is how it used to be all over the World, before 1900s. No seed oils, no mandatory vaccination, no fluoride being added to drinking water. People were healthy, had lots of children, no infertility issues. People haven't heard yet of autism, diabetes or cancer or ADHD. Those came later.
Not all together true. My grandmother, who at the age of 95 and who died in 1995 said that when she was a young girl, if you got sick, you had a good chance of dying. That if you wanted hot water, you had to boil it, if you wanted to use the rest room, you went outside, and in winter, used a bed pan. That there was no antibiotics or clean water. It's just a fact.
Now, I think that the greatest innovations that made the world safer were clean water, sanitation, electrification, and antibiotics. Those were the things that got us here. Pray we don't loose them. I was never a fan of the jabs. Pure blood here.
I agree with you. Sanitation is extremely important, most plumbers will tell you that it was water infrastructure, sewage systems and clean water, that eradicated disease. And they’re right.
Amen. Pure blood here as well.
I don't think it's good for you in any form. Plant oils are not proven to be healthy, the science is corrupted
How's that?
Numerous studies have confirmed plant oils rich in unsaturated fats do have proven benefits, they lower LDL cholesterol, improve insulin sensitivity, and are associated with reduced cardiovascular risk compared to saturated fats.
Yup, I used to be on the same boat. Gotta take the carnivore rabbit hole and see for yourself. Can't be convinced by a stranger in the comments
