If you actually review the unbiased literature on seed oils (not your little food guru blog articles, actual studies), this is exactly what those papers suggest is harmful, rather than seed oils inherently.

Food for thought.
The Japanese eat a good amount of seed oils to compose their fat macro dietary intake, along with saturated fats in meats, O3 fats in seafood, and carbohydrates from rice, etc.

Pretty excellent longevity all things considered.
Most also eat much less fast food than the West.
Black seed oil has been consumed for a few thousand years, but never refried. Curious.
Now I’m not saying to go crazy with cooking/consuming industrialized vegetable/seed oils, just offering a newer perspective on the matter. Getting you to think beyond what others tell you to think.

Not quite. Just like your research, “hormone of darkness” is quite outdated.

Melatonin is produced in the mitochondria by infrared light. What time of day is infrared light present naturally? Oh, that’s right, daytime.
God gave you a brain so you could think for yourself, brother. Try it out some time.

Missing how POMC and melanin are destroyed by artificial light and nnEMF.

It’s not just sunlight avoidance, sunscreen, and glasses/contacts.

That’s the true root cause to skin cancers.
And it’s not just past sunset either. It’s causing harm any time of day, just moreso past sunset.

Even spending time inside with windows closed can make one blue light toxic.
Chugging that bottle of wine in PFP isn’t helping the cause either.

This has been researched and common knowledge since the 1970s - 1980s. Not really so common anymore, of course. It’s not as profitable as a lifetime pharmaceutical prescription.

This is another major reason why I recommend investing in term insurance if you choose to ignore circadian rhythm and light environment.

There seems to be a deep misunderstanding of what occurs with glucose metabolism while consuming a ketogenic or low carb diet that I’ve seen floating around the Ray Peat community.
The claim I’ve seen going around goes as you begin to break down your muscles directly into amino acids, which is what stimulates gluconeogenesis to produce glucose, and that this occurs regardless of caloric intake or dietary composition.

This is not remotely true if you are eating sufficient protein at a caloric maintenance or surplus (fed state), even when exercising when net protein balance is impacted most in this context vs at rest.
This misconception seems to derive from misconstruing data on what occurs in a fasted or calorically restricted state before beta-oxidation adaptation occurs within about a month and glucose reliance decreases.

If you’re consuming the amino acids to stimulate gluconeogenesis, muscle protein breakdown is inhibited even on a low carbohydrate or ketogenic diet.

Completely changed my diet, lifestyle, environment, and relationships with myself and those around me. Utilized herbs, supplements, and various compounds along the way to support those processes and changes.

Quit all drugs, quit all inflammatory foods and “foods”, quit all drug-like relationships. Began spending my time learning more about my interests, eating a whole food diet at a nutritional surplus to resolve extensive deficiencies and supplemented gaps along the way, started to surround myself with people who actually wanted what’s best for me and didn’t just see me as stupid or not worth their time.

The most difficult aspect was likely changing my own conscious outlook on myself and my own life, finding gratitude and value in my experiences and self. Lots of deep shadow work, delving into the darkest emotions I had suppressed for most of my life head-on, and processing them effectively, then accepting.

I don’t really remember how depression feels anymore. I recall the memories, but it feels like a different person experienced those memories now.
This took a couple years, gradually making more and more progress. Figuring out the ins and outs.

Chronic social isolation was the final obstacle I had to overcome, so I moved cross country to be closer to those I had grown closest to. Perhaps the most profound effect on my mental health, where I had otherwise tried to biohack my way out of that biochemistry. Nothing beats positive relationships with those you feel comfortable and safe to be around.
Found my own conception of spirituality/religion, of course this played a major role in realizing everything that happened to me happened for a greater reason.

Changing my personality from one of self-service to service to others. Dropping the selfish outlook and becoming far more selfless.
