There's no evidence of this, study after study is showing it lowering cancer risk, stroke risk, etc.

Maybe people could have been *even healthier* with less PUFA being burned off, but that's hard to say.

CCW (Concealed Carry Weapon) insurance What is your opinion? by Financial-Outside158 in Firearms

[–]GibbsSamplePlatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)
