The Truth About Seed Oils, Protein & What’s Actually Making Us Sick | Simon Hill

Coming up on this episode of the Dr. Hyman show, this whole debate about seed oils, why is it such a boogeyman word? Where a lot of the confusion comes from is the Simon Hill is a nutrition scientist and physiotherapist. Best known for cutting through wellness hype with science and his mission to help you make evidence-based choices to live better and longer. Our consumption of soybean oil has increased a thousand fold since the 1900s.

When I look at the increase in chronic disease, to me the most obvious explanation for that is not an increase in the consumption of seed oils. It's an increase in the consumption of hyperpalatable, ultra-processed foods. The goal should be to create an environment where the convenient and affordable option just happens to be the healthy option as well. The food industry doesn't want to hear that.

And so protein is the latest darling of the nutrition world. And what do we know about protein? You do not see a difference in muscle size or strength. Regardless if it's animal or plant. Regardless of the two diets.
