I do sure wish this question had easier answers, but I appreciate this post laying out a lot of the evidence.
I do have some qualms about the post, in that while it’s pretty thorough on the evidence re: seed oils, it sort of handwavily assumes some other nutrition stuff about processed foods that (I’m willing to bet) also have highly mixed/confusing evidence bases. But, still thought the good parts of the post were good enough to be worth curating.
Agreed. The idea that foods with “low caloric density” are healthier is thrown in at the end as something we know for sure. That’s… not accurate at all. Not even a little bit accurate. I actually think the totality of the evidence leans the other way, but like with seed oils, it’s extremely mixed.
Curated.

Yeah, I’d be willing to bet that too.
