that means if you eat seed oils today it's going to take more than eight years to fully return your cell membranes to a normal composition without the linoleic acid that is in excess in these seed oils
The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

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.
we know these omega-6 fatty acids have a half-life of 680 days in your cell membranes
by populating our cell and mitochondrial membranes with excess amounts of linolic acid and 18 carbon omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid that is found in high amounts in seed oils
that omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid that is accumulating in our cell membranes because your body doesn't get rid of it very well and making those membranes more fragile and susceptible to oxidation
