Vegetable oils don’t necessarily lower your risk for heart disease, just because they have lower levels of cholesterol. Also, these oils have polyunsaturated fats, but most of them are Omega-6’s. Humans need to eat Omega-6 and Omega-3 fatty acids in a certain balance. Eating a diet high Omega-6s and low in Omega-3s can contribute to inflammation in the body. Also, they are heavily processed and contain lots of trans-fats.
