Across 1 decoded pieces of advice. This scores the state of the evidence behind what they say — not them, and not their honesty. Good creators cover contested ground; that shows up here as mixed.

What Noli has graded

There's no evidence that seed oils (soybean, corn, sunflower, canola) cause inflammation or damage cell membranes in humans at normal consumption levels — the best current meta-analyses show the opposite or a neutral effect.

The full read

This post names no source and no type of evidence — no study, no author, no figure — which is itself worth flagging for a claim this specific (oxidation, cell-membrane disruption, inflammation). Against that, independent literature says the opposite of what's claimed: two controlled-trial meta-analyses (2012, 2017) find no significant effect of linoleic acid — the dominant fatty acid in seed oils — on blood inflammatory markers, and a 2025-2026 Frontiers in Nutrition review concludes most human evidence supports a favorable, not harmful, role for linoleic acid in cardiometabolic risk. The industrial-refining argument has a real kernel — oxidized oil reused repeatedly at high heat can produce unwanted compounds — but that's a problem of repeated high-heat frying, not an intrinsic property of seed oils: the same misused olive oil would cause the same issue.
