I see a lot of words like "may cause" or "was shown to be linked to". Typical BS fear porn writing. The increase in heart attacks are directly linked to the increase use of seed oils instead of natural animal fats. Obesity and heart diseases really took off after 1973 when Richard Nixon signed the law allowing high fructose corn syrup to be used as a sugar in foods. The first time the word "heart attack" was used as a medical term was in the early 1900s. Cotton seed oil had been introduced as a 'healthy' alternative to cooking with animal fats back in the 1870s by Proctor and Gamble. In 1913 two German chemists discovered how to turn the oil solid at room temperatures by bubbling hydrogen through the oil. In the late 1950s Proctor and Gamble convinced people that eating hydrogenated cottonseed oil as margarine was healthier than butter. Heart disease has been on a steep increase ever since. How come there were no heart attacks before seed oils were introduced into the food chain? How come there was almost no obesity in America before high fructose corn syrup was introduced into the food chain.
