That’s the question we’re slowing down with today — not from fear or internet hype, but with clarity, compassion, and grounded science. Seed oils are everywhere in the modern diet, but understanding how they’re made and how they behave in the body helps us make wiser choices without slipping into perfectionism or panic.In this episode, we break down the truth about omega-6 fatty acids, how extraction methods affect delicate fats, and why the balance between omega-6 and omega-3 matters for inflammation. We also talk about those gorgeous golden “canola fields” (that aren’t actually canola plants…) and how industrial processing transforms these oils long before they reach your kitchen.You’ll learn the difference between cold-pressed, expeller-pressed, and highly refined oils — and why choosing gentler versions at home supports your body’s natural design for resilience, restoration, and renewal. No shame. No alarm bells. Just simple choices that stack up over time.If you’ve ever wondered whether you need to panic about seed oils or toss out your entire pantry, this episode brings the peace back into the conversation.Hosted by Penelope SamplerNatural Wellness • Chronic Illness Journey • Faith & Wellness📩 Join the Email List🛒 My Trusted Resources Contains affiliate links.
