A recent study indicates that linoleic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid commonly found in seed oils, could be beneficial for cardiometabolic health rather than harmful. Analyzing blood samples from approximately 1,900 participants, researchers discovered that elevated levels of linoleic acid were correlated with reduced inflammation and improved health markers for heart disease and type 2 diabetes. These findings contest the prevailing notion that seed oils contribute to poor health outcomes, emphasizing instead their potential protective effects against chronic diseases.
There has been increasing attention on seed oils, with some claiming these oils promote inflammation and raise cardiometabolic risk. Our study, based on almost 1,900 people, found that higher linoleic acid in blood plasma was associated with lower levels of biomarkers of cardiometabolic...
