Are seed oils really toxic — or have we been misled? Dr. Steven Gundry breaks down the truth about seed oils and reveals the top 4 healthiest seed oils that can actually improve your gut health, reduce inflammation, and boost your brain power.
You’ll discover how certain cold-pressed, omega-3-rich seed oils — like perilla oil, flaxseed oil, and even organic canola oil — can help fight leaky gut, balance your omega-3 to omega-6 ratio, lower lipopolysaccharide (LPS) toxins, support metabolic health, and even reduce your risk of heart disease and Alzheimer’s. These oils are loaded with ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), a plant-based omega-3 fatty acid known for its powerful anti-inflammatory and brain-protective benefits.
Dr. Gundry also explains why the right seed oils may help protect the gut microbiome, improve insulin sensitivity, and enhance mitochondrial function — all crucial for longevity, energy, and healthy aging.
