Tahini is high in vitamin E, so IMO not bad when eaten in moderation.

Have you looked at the references section of the relevant articles on raypeat.com ?

I attached a comprehensive collection of studies showing harm (see RTF file), and copied some references on PUFA deficiency below.

***

I went through some of the literature on EFA-deficient mice, and its really true as Peat says that EFA-deficiency seems to be highly protective against many different toxins and auto-immune diseases. There's half a dozen papers on how EFA-deficienct mice are immune against streptozotocin and cyclosporin-induced diabetes, EFA-deficiency prevents autoimmune diabetes, toxin-induced renal failure and autoimmune kidney disease, makes mice strongly resistant to endotoxic shock, infectious disease and almost completely eliminates the edema associated with arthritis.
Seeing as how the main purported role of PUFAs is to modulate the immune system, if they were truly essential, it just seems very odd to me that EFA-deficient animals actually show many signs of having superior immune function.

Some refs:

Diabetes


Essential fatty acid deficiency prevents multiple low-dose streptozotocin-induced diabetes in CD-1 mice - PubMed
Essential fatty acid deficiency prevents autoimmune diabetes in nonobese diabetic mice through a positive impact on antigen-presenting cells and Th2 lymphocytes - PubMed
Immunophenotyping of insulitis in control and essential fatty acid deficient mice treated with multiple low-dose streptozotocin - PubMed
Essential fatty acid deficiency prevents multiple low-dose streptozotocin-induced diabetes in naive and cyclosporin-treated low-responder murine strains - PubMed
Prevention of diabetes in the BB rat by essential fatty acid deficiency. Relationship between physiological and biochemical changes - PubMed

Arthritis



Endotoxic shock



Kidney disease


Essential fatty acid deficiency ameliorates acute renal dysfunction in the rat after the administration of the aminonucleoside of puromycin - PubMed

Trypanosoma infection

Effect of an essential fatty acid deficient diet on experimental infection with Trypanosoma cruzi in germfree and conventional mice - PubMed

Antimicrobial activity


Antimicrobial activity of stratum corneum lipids from normal and essential fatty acid-deficient mice - PubMed
Effects of essential fatty acid deficiency on prostaglandin E2 production and cell-mediated immunity in a mouse model of leprosy - PubMed

Same. Raypeat.com
Suitable Fats...
The great fish oil experiment

Also Haiduts Summary of PUFA on this site.

Seek and ye shall find. Also if your friend doesn’t seek, then he won’t find much. Why not send the friend the sites to search? Just an option.
