Excluding multifactorial interventions, blatant issues with study design, and trans fats in control groups I'd say it's pretty clear that seed oils are not benign for human health.

We can't find evidence that holds up here. Proponents are reasoning from mechanism or analogy rather than direct human data, and the most credible skeptics raise objections we can't dismiss.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
if you really truly carefully honestly look at these human randomized control trials with seed oils You Come Away with the conclusion that in the best conducted trials seed oils are clearly harmful for humans
if you actually look at those carefully the whole argument falls apart immediately the whole argument falls apart because of the quality of those trials
And the other problem with seed oils before we move on is just that all of the randomized control trials were done 60 years ago, 50 to 70 years ago, and none of them are great.
