Opting for oils with a more balanced fatty acid profile or those less prone to oxidation may be a healthier choice for long-term heart health.

The article from News18 discusses the long-term effects of consuming sunflower oil on heart health. It highlights that sunflower oil, rich in polyunsaturated fats like linoleic acid, can lower bad cholesterol (LDL) levels, thereby reducing the risk of heart disease. However, the article also points out potential downsides: the high omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acid ratio in sunflower oil might promote inflammation if not balanced with sufficient omega-3 intake. Additionally, the oil's high vitamin E content can be beneficial for heart health by preventing the oxidation of LDL cholesterol, but excessive consumption might lead to an imbalance in antioxidant levels. The article suggests moderation and a balanced diet to mitigate any adverse effects while still reaping the cardiovascular benefits of sunflower oil.
