This conversation with Dr. Cate Shanahan focuses on what industrialized seed oils do inside the body at the cellular level. If you have heard that seed oils are bad but never understood why or how, this is for you. We discuss how these oils are made, why oxidation and free radicals damage cell membranes, and what that means for pregnancy, metabolic health, and your children's development.

Avoiding seed oils is about making informed choices with the food you already buy. By learning to read a label and recognize the worst offenders, you can reduce your family's exposure without turning every meal into a project. Understanding the difference between a saturated fat, a monounsaturated fat, and a polyunsaturated fat gives you the confidence to trust your own judgment at the grocery store.
