Ultra-processed seed oils such as canola and sunflower oils have been promoted as beneficial cooking fats for heart health. However, recent assertions from health influencers challenge this view, suggesting that fats like beef tallow are not only more natural but also healthier. Health editor Mia de Graaf explores the scientific evidence surrounding these claims, questioning the long-held belief in the heart-healthy nature of seed oils and investigating whether they contribute negatively to overall health.
While seed oils have been marketed as heart-healthy, critics argue that they are heavily processed and may contribute to inflammation and other health issues.
Health influencers advocate for the use of traditional fats such as beef tallow, which they believe offer a more natural and beneficial alternative to ultra-processed oils.
