Episode Overview 0:00 Why Seed Oils Spark Confusion 0:34 Ancestral Health Perspective 3:19 Industrial Processing and Mismatch Ideas 7:51 What Research Actually Shows 11:15 Seed Oils vs Ultra Processed Foods 14:54 How Coaches Can Talk About This Without Dogma Key Concepts in This Episode Ancestral Viewpoint Erin explains the concerns raised by ancestral and primal thinkers like Mark Sisson, including: • Industrial processing and evolutionary mismatch • High Omega 6 content and theoretical inflammation pathways • How modern diets differ dramatically from traditional fat sources Scientific Evidence Modern research paints a more nuanced picture: • Human studies do not show seed oils causing inflammation • Linoleic acid is often correlated with lower inflammation • Replacing saturated fats with polyunsaturated fats can lower LDL • The real issue tends to be Omega 3 deficiency, not Omega 6 excess Ultra Processed Food Context Seed oils appear most often in foods that are: • Hyper palatable • Shelf stable • High in refined carbs, additives, and excess calories This makes seed oils more of a marker for processed foods rather than the root cause of poor health. How Coaches Should Approach the Topic Erin models a grounded, non judgmental coaching stance: • Avoid extremes and absolutist thinking • Confront your own nutrition biases • Guide clients toward big picture patterns • Validate concerns while offering nuance • Focus on what clients can realistically change The goal isn’t to demonize seed oils — it’s to help clients make clearer, calmer, more informed decisions.
