I guess soybean oil might not be so great to eat?

[QUOTE="jim mcnamara, post: 6289976, member: 35824"] Things to note. Primary research result: First off, the primary results do not implicate linoleic acid, just some "unknown" component. A lot more research is needed, clearly. And, as usual, too many internet sources do not get that this research is not a death sentence and could care less. Trans-fat: Next, trans-fat derived from hydrogenation of plant sources Polyunsturated Fatty Acids still has human biochemical problems. Soybean was cheaper as a primary oil source for hydrogenated fats in margarine, and in boutique trans-fats used in the food service and processed foods industries. Soy was a lot cheaper because the market was altered by USDA subsidies for soybeans. Beef and lamb have small amounts of trans-fats (unique to bacterial activity in the rumen). FWIW see: [URL]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21427742[/URL] Given the fact that FDA has been slooo-oow in enforcing trans-fat labeling and still allows labelling less than 1.0g/serving trans-fat as zero percent. The timeline for the process from a series of good studies to now is more than 25 years. Willett WC, Ascherio A ([COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]May 1994[/COLOR]). [URL='https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1615057']"Trans fatty acids: are the effects only marginal?"[/URL]. [I]American Journal of Public Health[/I]. [B]84[/B] (5): 722–4. [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_object_identifier']doi[/URL]:[URL='https://doi.org/10.2105%2FAJPH.84.5.722']10.2105/AJPH.84.5.722[/URL]. [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PubMed_Central']PMC[/URL] [URL='https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1615057']1615057[/URL]. [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PubMed_Identifier']PMID[/URL] [URL='https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8179036']8179036[/URL]. So yes, it does deserve testing. And since a lot of soy is GMO, randomized controls across genotypes should be part of phase II. Should you worry? No. There are lots of more immediate disasters to ponder. Example: If you need a worry source to make things worthwhile consider that right now Influenza B is killing kids and elderly, and everybody can die from influenza H1N1. More people die from flu than auto accidents in the US. And a pandemic is NOT what the yellow journalists tell you. [/QUOTE]
