Once Upon a Time: Fats in the Kitchen
Once, cooking fats were simple—think butter, lard, and olive oil. Now, seed oils dominate shelves and diets, sneaking into nearly 90% of packaged foods. Cheap to produce and shelf-stable, they’ve been marketed as “heart-healthy” but come with hidden risks: oxidative stress, inflammation, and a skewed omega-6 to omega-3 balance.
Extracted through harsh chemicals and high heat, these oils are far removed from the nourishing fats our ancestors knew. Next time you shop, skip the seed oils and choose traditional, whole-food fats instead. Your body will thank you.
