Seed Oil Ban?

There’s a battle brewing in Louisiana…

Lawmakers just advanced a bill that would force restaurants to disclose whether they cook with seed oils.

To most people, that might sound extreme.

The truth is that this is a long-overdue step in the right direction.

I can tell you with confidence:

Seed oils are not harmless.

They are inflammatory, endocrine-disrupting, and gut-damaging. They simply don’t belong in your body.

But of course… not everyone agrees.

Some university doctors and food scientists are defending these oils—saying the “real” issue is ultra-processed food, not the oils themselves.

Let me be clear:

That’s like blaming cigarettes on the paper they’re rolled in.

Yes, seed oils are in ultra-processed foods.

But they’re also in salad dressings, mayo, fried food, and “heart healthy” cooking sprays. You can avoid junk food and still be exposed to them daily.

The argument that “hexane is safe” because it evaporates is just another example of industrial gaslighting.

These oils are refined with heat, pressure, metal catalysts, and solvents.

Even if you remove the hexane, you’re still left with a highly unstable fat that oxidizes rapidly, driving inflammation at the cellular level.

It’s no coincidence that:

• Rates of chronic disease skyrocketed as seed oils replaced animal fats

• These oils are now in nearly every food served at restaurants

• Most people have no idea what they’re eating

Which is why this Louisiana bill matters.

It’s not banning seed oils. It’s not restricting consumer choice.

It’s simply requiring transparency.

And that terrifies the food industry.

Until next time,
