Danny Lennon is one of the most respected and longest-tenured evidence based nutrition authorities in the world. It’s an honour to welcome him back for an incredibly nuanced and level-headed conversation on one of the most contentious topics in all of nutrition - seed oils.

In a landscape filled with loud, sensational nutrition claims, Danny brings clarity, evidence, and calm to a discussion that desperately needs it.

We talk about:

• Whether seed oils are truly harmful or unfairly demonized

• The impact of seed oils on cardiovascular health and LDL cholesterol

• Whether seed oils are responsible for modern obesity or metabolic dysfunction

• How to think about nuance and scientific honesty in an era of nutrition fear-mongering

• The importance of Omega 3 and Omega 6 intake

• Whether the Omega 3 to 6 ratio actually matters

• The differences between fresh caught and farmed salmon for Omega intake

• What the evidence says about high LDL cholesterol and health risks

• How to effectively and realistically lower LDL cholesterol

• And much more
