The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.
adipocyte levels fat levels of linoleic acid are the best correlate and as we know as i've talked about in the past there is good data to suggest that adipocyte levels fat levels of linoleic acid correlate with worse outcomes now of coronavirus heart disease etc
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.

meaning the more seed oils you put on your skin the more seed oils you put in your mouth the more seed oils you're going to find in your membranes and by seed oils i mean things like linoleic acid linolenic acid and 18 carbon omega-6 fatty acid that is a big problem because you are accumulating those we can look at the adipose tissue of humans and tell how much linoleic acid they've been eating because the adipose tissue stores linoleic acid it's stores it's a history book
many studies looking at linoleic acid and other omega-6s look at plasma levels not going to cut it you must look at tissue levels of those things and you must look at the correct indices to get a sense of what's really going on there the other problem with much of the research surrounding polyunsaturated fatty acids specifically omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids including linoleic acid is that there is very rarely a washout period in these studies
when you look at the amount of linoleic acid in someone's fat that's associated with cardiovascular disease
you can look at an adipose tissue so a fatty acid fatty acid a fatty tissue Depot like the butt or the glute or behind the tricep and you can see how much linoleic acid is in the fat and that's a pretty good indication of how much linoleic acid someone has been eating
you can look at an adapost tissue so a fatty acid fatty acid a fatty tissue Depot like the butt or the glute or behind the tricep and you can see how how much linolic acid is in the fat and that's a pretty good indication of how much linolic acid someone has been eating blood levels not so good and we'll talk about why because primarily because the linolic acid breaks down
blood levels of linoleic acid are not a very good indicator of consumption of linoleic acid which is this omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid found in seed oils.
linoleic acid in the blood is a very it's a very mushy very inaccurate measure of linoleic acid consumption
adipose tissue linoleic acid is the only accurate measure of linoleic acid in the human body I'll talk about why only two or three of the potentially 30 plus studies looked at adipose tissue linoleic acid and in those three studies there was no correlation there was no protective benefit of linoleic acid for cardiovascular disease
If you take an atapost tissue sample, if you take a blood sample, you will see more of that essential fatty acid incorporated into your lipid, your your phosphoipid billayer of your cells. And indeed in studies where they look at tissue amounts of linoleic acid, they see the same thing, a reduction in risk of cardiovascular disease.
