Polyunsaturated fats such as corn oil and soybean oil are highly unstable and vulnerable to oxidation — and oxidation, in turn, is linked to cancer — while the omega - 6 fatty acids that predominate in vegetable oils have been shown to accelerate the growth of tumor cells.6 As Fallon and Enig explain, 4 excessive
consumption of toxic polyunsaturated oils — not red

meat, has been associated
with increased mortality in a recent meta - analysis of 13 cohort studies, 43
high consumption of nuts, a major contributor to plant protein, has been associated lower CVD and all - cause mortality.44 These results underscore the importance of protein sources for risk assessment and suggest that other components in protein - rich foods (eg, sodium, 45 nitrates, and nitrites46 in processed red
