031: The Shocking Truth About Seed Oils: What You're Really Eating

Talk to Vicky, RHN: A Total Approach to Wellness

Is your salad dressing sabotaging your health, and your metabolism?

In this eye-opening solo episode, we uncover the hidden dangers of seed oils, often disguised as “heart-healthy” ingredients lurking in everyday foods.

But this isn’t just a rant about canola oil. It’s a call to rethink fat, food marketing, and what actually nourishes your body. From grocery store traps to inflammation, weight gain, and liver overload, this episode will change the way you look at your plate.

Together, we explore:

• The difference between saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fats
• What makes “The Hateful 8” oils so toxic—and why they're in everything
• How seed oils are processed (spoiler: it involves bleach, heat, and crude oil)
• Why these fats impact brain health, belly fat, mood, and metabolism
• The comeback of beef tallow, butter, and traditional fats that support wellness
• How to stock your kitchen with clean, nourishing fat sources
• Practical tips to reduce your seed oil intake without overhauling your entire diet
• Why your liver, hormones, and skin will thank you for this one small change

If you’ve ever wondered why you’re tired, inflamed, or can’t lose stubborn weight—this episode might hold the answer. It’s not just about calories. It’s about quality.
