    New Study Shows The Link Between Seed Oils and Colorectal Cancer #338

    Are the foods we eat fueling the rise of cancer in young adults? A groundbreaking study from the University of South Florida reveals a shocking link between seed oils, ultra-processed foods, and the alarming rise in colorectal cancer rates among people under 50. In this episode of Heal Thy Self, we uncover why colorectal cancer rates are increasing 1–2% annually in younger populations, how seed oils and ultra-processed foods disrupt gut health and fuel chronic inflammation, and the role of gut microbiota and inflammation in cancer risk. #seedoils #guthealth #cancer  ==== Thank You To Our Sponsors:  Birch Click here https://birchliving.com/healthyself to get 20% off your Birch mattress plus two free pillows.  ==== Show Notes: Alarming rise in colorectal cancer among young adults (1–2% increase annually).

University of South Florida study highlights the role of diet in cancer development. Seed oils high in omega-6 fatty acids linked to inflammation and weakened gut lining. Ultra-processed foods disrupt gut microbiota and contain harmful additives. Combined effects of seed oils and processed foods amplify cancer risk. Study limitations: observational data, preclinical models, and overlapping dietary factors. Replace seed oils with olive, avocado, or coconut oil. Avoid ultra-processed foods; focus on whole, minimally processed options. Add anti-inflammatory foods like leafy greens, salmon, and walnuts. Boost gut health with fiber and fermented foods. Stay active and manage stress to reduce inflammation. Empowering viewers to make informed dietary choices for long-term health.
