they have to wash the oils with a hexane, this you know, this organic chemical, which is a neurological toxin. They have to wash All canola oil has been washed with hexane, right? And there's going to be residual hexane in the oil.
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.
you grind them up you have to heat them which creates all this gum in this video you see all this nasty gum and wax dripping out of the oil and this point you've already oxidized the oil you've destroyed the oil but in order to make the oil not smelly when you open it or you have it in a salad dressing you have to deodorize it and bleach it and then you have to extract it with hexane
in order to get these oils from the seeds of plants they must be highly refined exposed to many extracting agents that are carcinogenic like Benzene hexane and heated to high temperatures leading to oxidation of these fragile oils and exposure to high heat in the distillation process leads to oxidation and the formation of significant amounts of trans fats
