Are there any human randomised control trials that show stuff like vegetable oil cause inflammation? Atleast the ones I've seen show the opposite ▶ this video
> Except the human studies we have suggest that seed oils are probably not inflammatory. A few examples are listed in this video: ▶ this video which part of that do you consider bullying? is it any opinion that goes against the underdog?

I don't think there's any evidence that they're inflammatory (great video about it here [1]), but obviously oils are almost 100% fat and therefore have a ton of calories. At the same time, some people feel incredibly satiated from eating fats, to the point where they might eat fewer total calories if they include some... Generally, avoiding added high calorie fillers (that includes sugar and oils alike) is almost certainly a good idea if you're trying to lose weight though. [1] ▶ this video
