Sunflower seed oil
Scout's take
Sunflower seed oil is classified as very bad due to its high omega-6 fatty acid content, which can contribute to inflammation. The oil is often highly processed, which may involve the use of chemical solvents. Its consumption should be limited to avoid potential negative health impacts.
