Seed Oils: OK to eat or not?

[Hawkeye10]

Hawkeye's on to something, Chinese eat as much fried foods and salt as Americans do yet they're thin and healthy while we're fat and have a lot of medical conditions. It may be GMOs or the fact that Americans don't walk enough but who knows?

Obesity is spreading in Asia I am pretty sure.....a lot of those Thai bar girls are now on the chunky side.

 

[Hawkeye10]

Maybe we could get the truth from Prima...but I wont count on it.

That's a shame. Asian women get me, especially the highly educated ones. They let me be a man and don't try to polish me up too much. The only problem is they use too much oil when they cook, so I end up doing most of the cooking.

OH...and the Han just adore their meats.....have lots of it....and the Party has declared that under no circumstances are they following the west and our penal colony diets.

That sure is interesting.

2 fresh eggs a month assuming enough social credit points one proposal has it.

I try to cut down on beef but it's not easy. There's nothing like a perfectly cooked steak with potato and a greens. Maybe even some artesian bread with European butter. I know you ruin you steak but that's OK as long as I'm not the one who has to cook it.

Not sure why Chinese people out live Americans.

They'll eat anything in China, that don't eat them first!

I am currently listening to Neil Oliver rant on claiming that they are fine as lubricants but should not be eaten...ever...A claim that shows up on by grapevine with great frequency now.

Have you reached any conclusions?

I think you should ask Donald J Trump. He's the smartest guy in the world and knows everything.

Of course, the general rule is everything is safe in moderation. That includes seed oils and Donald J Trump.

Health Benefits of Hemp Seed Oil

Hemp seed oil is extracted from seeds of the hemp plant. The extraction occurs through cold-pressing, similar to the way that olives are cold-pressed to make olive oil.

Although the hemp and the cannabis (marijuana) plant belong to the same plant family, Cannabis sativa L, they are two different plants and have different compositions. The most notable difference is the amount of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) present in each plant. THC is the psychoactive portion of the cannabis plant. It’s the chemical that makes you feel “high”.

While the cannabis plant has high THC levels (up to 28%), the hemp plant’s THC concentration does not exceed 0.3%. Thus, products derived from the hemp plant are unlikely to create a “high” and are mainly used for medicinal purposes.

Health Benefits

The many health benefits of hemp seed oil come from its high content of three polyunsaturated fatty acids: linoleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid, and gamma-linolenic acid. Additionally, its ratio of omega-6 (linoleic acid) to omega-3 (alpha-linolenic acid) fatty acids is 3:1.
Experts agree that this 3:1 fatty acid ratio is ideal for health benefits in humans.
Hemp seed oil provides the following health benefits:
Improved Skin

A dermatology study found that oral consumption of hemp seed oil improves symptoms of atopic dermatitis, also known as eczema. Researchers attribute these results to the fatty acids found in hemp seed oil.
Hemp seed oil is also useful in treating other skin conditions, such as cradle cap, psoriasis, and acne. In addition, hemp seed oil strengthens the skin and makes it better able to resist infection.

Lower Blood Pressure

Omega-3 fatty acids abundant in hemp seed oil can help lower blood pressure in people with hypertension (high blood pressure). Research recommends using omega-3 fatty acid supplements along with blood pressure medicine to lower blood pressure.

Promotes Heart Health

Hemp seed oil is rich in linoleic acid. Studies have shown that eating a diet high in linoleic acid significantly reduces total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or “bad” cholesterol.

Lowering cholesterol levels reduces your risk of high blood pressure, stroke, and heart disease.

Pain Relief

Hemp seed oil’s anti-inflammatory properties help to reduce pain. You can apply hemp seed oil directly to the painful area for natural pain relief.

Inflammation Reduction

Gamma-linoleic acid (GLA) present in hemp seed oil has been shown to reduce inflammation. A review of studies suggests that natural herbs rich in GLA are effective in relieving symptoms of inflammatory conditions, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and multiple sclerosis (MS).

Supports a Healthy Pregnancy

Hemp seed oil’s high omega-3 fatty acid content makes it a beneficial supplement for women who are pregnant. Studies found that omega-3 fatty acids are vital during pregnancy. They support healthy brain and eye development for the baby and may also help prevent maternal depression.

Oral hemp seed oils

Hemp seed oil contains high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as linoleic acid and essential acids, such as omega-6 and omega-3. In a 2016 studyTrusted Source, researchers identified a significant number of polyphenols in hemp seed oil. Polyphenols are micronutrients that contain antioxidants.

A 2018 studyTrusted Source in mice indicated that the rich nutrient profile of hemp seed oil might protect the brain from chemical-induced learning and memory problems. Other benefits may include:

I used to take a hemp seed supplement but now I take flaxseed oil.

Hmmmmm.

Neil Oliver is an extremely wise man.

He may be wrong about seed oils.

Misinformed Consent: The 274th Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying​

Bret and Heather go off on their HAHA views today....I have a hard time cheering government food restrictions.

 

[Hawkeye10]

"Control the food control the people" and WOKE is a Death Cult....they are sadist's....and they promise the meat will be a special treat and social credit scores and carbon credit scores.

Fail to resist at your own risk.

I am resisting.

 

[Into the Night]

I am currently listening to Neil Oliver rant on claiming that they are fine as lubricants but should not be eaten...ever...A claim that shows up on by grapevine with great frequency now.

Have you reached any conclusions?

Many seed oils are quite edible and even good for you.
Others are quite toxic.

 

[Hawkeye10]

"We'd all be better off if we went back to tallow and butter" I heard the other day.

I never left butter.....Mom did Chiffon and later Parkay Margarine...I hated it.

 

[Into the Night]

I use grapeseed oil all the time. There is debatable evidence that certain seed oils can cause inflammation due to the extraction process. Not much is confirmed though. I have certain inflammation issues and they don't seem to be affected.

Keep your fingers out of the machine. The inflammation will stop.

 

[Hawkeye10]

Evidence is required for me to agree.

I have not seen it yet, just claims and theories.

 

[Into the Night]

The claim is that seed oils are processed, processed food is bad for us, thus seed oils are bad for us.

Then don't eat. Pretty much ALL food is processed, including wheat, corn, any kind of bean (except string beans), eggs, and even water.

I am not buying it...I think that the problem with processed foods is that they contain too many machine lubricants, not that we need to only eat food raw from nature as so many claim.

They don't contain any machine lubricants (unless the machine is defective).

 

[Into the Night]

Asians and lovers of Asian cuisine would be lost without sesame oil. I say if it's natural and edible is a good indicator if it should be eaten or not.

LIke all seed oils, it is processed food.
