Have there been studies done to show the effect of natural PUFA's (let's say nuts and other such things) vs. the vegetable oils?
I now believe what is especially harmful are oils and not so much natural foods. But is there scientific literature to support this theory or does it say all PUFA are bad?
Also, I now personally believe that non-animal based PUFA are the least harmful, so if there are studies to this effect, are there any that look exclusively to non-animal non-vegetable oil PUFA's like nuts and others?
Not to sound like a typical Vegan (because I'm eating mostly Vegan now but I cheat so I can't even really call myself a vegan, like I have gelatin, since the literature on glycine seems convincing) but I wonder if plant based pufa's are superior to animal based pufa's like fish and dairy fats?
I was watching some lectures from the vegan Dr. Nick Delgado and he shows clearly how straight oil can be dangerous, but the fats naturally contained in (plant) foods seem safe enough. From what I recall he says oils immediately cause a reduction in white blood cell count and wreak havoc on the system.
