"...Perpetual Pre-Hibernation: In humans, the continuous consumption of seed oils could be driving a perpetual state of pre-hibernation, where the body, under the influence of these oils, prepares for a scarcity that never comes. This leads to energy conservation and fat storage, not because of an excess of calories, but due to the body's misinterpreted survival response. Marshall's insights suggest that this condition might explain why even children today face unprecedented levels of obesity.

'...Chris Knobbe MD, an ophthalmologist who identified seed oils' major role in AMD, has written and lectured all over the world about the overwhelming evidence that seed oils drive obesity across various populations. A chart he often references in his talks, clearly illustrates that while sugar consumption has remained relatively stable over the decades, the intake of seed oils has risen dramatically, paralleling the increase in obesity rates. This correlation is not just a coincidence but a telling sign that we've been focusing on the wrong dietary
component when addressing obesity.

>...Heating Seed Oils: When seed oils are heated, especially repeatedly as in commercial frying, they oxidize and form toxic compounds. These oxidized fats have been shown to promote inflammation, insulin resistance, and cellular damage, all of which contribute to obesity (Nature). This aspect is frequently overlooked in dietary discussions, leading to a misunderstanding of what makes fried foods harmful.

"...In summary, while sugar has its place in the conversation about health, the main dietary villain behind America's obesity has become the ubiquitous use of seed oils. These oils not only impair thyroid function but also trigger a survival mechanism meant for ancient times, leading to modern-day metabolic disorders.
