Get N-3s fatty acids, get plenty of monounsaturated fats. Don't heat them if you can avoid it.

What is also fascinating is the marketing and advertisement influence in all this.
In villages here a couple of generations ago, they would dry coconuts and make the oils at home. No industrial refinement, heating, and deodorization. But a few years ago there was a huge push against coconut oil, probably from the other segments of the cooking oil industry. Now there are studies saying coconut oil is actually better than most seed oils.
It's the same thing with sugar/fat and cigarettes.
And that brings us to the underlying problem: How does the public form an informed opinion when industry-funded research skews results one way and also has the "propaganda" benefit?
Smoking doesn't necessarily mean you'll live a shorter life either
