A recent study funded by the American government showcased that specific seed oils are allegedly causing a large number of colon cancer cases among young people in the US. The study in question was quickly shared across social media due to its concerning nature.
According to The Daily Mail, the study adds that using these specific oils in cooking including sunflower, canola, corn, and grapeseed can cause inflammation in the body. Moreover, research shows that patients under the age of 50 might get diagnosed with colon cancer at a later stage in their lives due to developing tumors that could lead to the life-threatening disease.
On the other hand, some Americans claim that seed oils don’t cause cancer but rather other symptoms including the risk of heart disease and diabetes, recommending consumers stray further from these specific oils.
This all comes amid the rise of colon cancer cases among young people in the US. Diagnosis of the disease is expected to rise by 90 percent among people aged between 20 and 25 from 2010 to 2030.
Despite that, a recent study made by the University of South Florida showcases that Americans depend on and consume seed oils too much as the average citizen consumes 100 pounds a year there.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has also been an advocate of promoting the use of beef tallow as a healthier alternative to seed oils since he claims that they cause chronic diseases, and are highly processed.
