The video claims seed oils are "the most dangerous thing," contain hexane "like gasoline," and stay in the body for "two years." Hexane is an extraction solvent that evaporates before bottling; measured residues sit far below toxicological concern and aren't an additive in the finished product. No source supports a two-year retention claim.
