There is some evidence as of late that points to a correlation between worsened gut health and high linoleic acid levels:

abc7.com/soy-protein-lecithin-soybean/13584590/

That article is specifically about soybean oil, but sunflower oil also has a high linoleic acid content.

I think it really depends on your total linoleic acid intake. If you’re using a variety of cooking oils, and/or different cooking methods (e.g. steaming) then it probably doesn’t matter much.

Where I think it matters is when someone is taking in a diet of mostly prepared, highly processed foods that have things like soybean oil added.
