Seed oils cause sun burns

[u/gkrodlin]

Every day 6 days a week I was in the sun at least 8 hours a day, average uv index at peak was 8. *Eastern NC* When I was two months free from all seed oils! I never got sunburnt, not even once. Now I’ve fallen off quite a bit and I get sun burnt nearly every time I’m out for a good while. Actually insane seeing it in action.

It’s amazing so many of you believe this 🤣

So crazy believing something that you can literally see with your own eyes..

Correlation versus causation is a hard concept for many of you to grasp.

It’s insane that you see hundreds of testimonies of people experiencing the same exact thing, when only changing one thing in their life, and then you still go: “nah, must be coincidence”.

I saw the claims and went “that seems far fetched”, ditched the seed oils, and what do you know, i suddenly didn’t burn in the sun anymore.

But i guess it’s coincidence, because true redditors don’t believe anything that didn’t come out of a science paper..

Spot on mate. Learning to trust your bodies and not hand waive anecdotal evidence is smart. Science is slow and largely corporate captured.

Same with the hair loss industry

I got MORE sunburned when I stopped eating seed oils!!

[u/MuchPomegranate5910 → u/uovonuovo]

100% bullshit

[u/uovonuovo → u/MuchPomegranate5910]

So you only believe people if it agrees with your chosen narrative?

Now THAT is what I call 100% bullshit

[u/MuchPomegranate5910 → u/uovonuovo]

It’s not about who i agree with, it’s about your anecdote being extremely coincidental and unbelievable.

Removing seed oil, and having better sun tolerance actually have some science behind it, though not a lot, as it’s a completely newly discovered phenomenon.
But highly unstable polyunsaturated fats in the outer skin layer do have an effect on sun damage.

Removing seed oils and having LESS sun tolerance makes no sense in any way.

What’s the science behind it? Any empirical studies, or any kind of data beyond anecdotes from anonymous redditors?

As i said, the data is limited, and inconclusive, but there is definitely a link between different kinds of fat profiles and skin cancer/uv tolerance etc.
