Wasn't it Madge the manicurist who had the gal soaking in Palmolive?
I will do an image search...

The study, published in the journal Nature and part-funded by the UK charity Worldwide Cancer Research, uncovers how palmitic acid alters the cancer genome, increasing the likelihood the cancer will spread. The researchers have started developing therapies that interrupt this process and say a clinical trial could start in the next couple of years.
Newly published findings, led by researchers at IRB Barcelona, Spain, reveal that one such fatty acid commonly found in palm oil, called palmitic acid, promotes metastasis in oral carcinomas and melanoma skin cancer in mice. Other fatty acids called oleic acid and linoleic acid—omega-9 and omega-6 fats found in foods such as olive oil and flaxseeds—did not show the same effect. Neither of the fatty acids tested increased the risk of developing cancer in the first place.
The research found that when palmitic acid was supplemented into the diet of mice, it not only contributed to metastasis, but also exerts long-term effects on the genome. Cancer cells that had only been exposed to palmitic acid in the diet for a short period of time remained highly metastatic even when the palmitic acid had been removed from the diet.
The researchers discovered that this "memory" is caused by epigenetic changes—changes to how our genes function. The epigenetic changes alter the function of metastatic cancer cells and allow them to form a neural network around the tumor to communicate with cells in their immediate environment and to spread more easily. By understanding the nature of this communication, the researchers uncovered a way to block it and are now in the process of planning a clinical trial to stop metastasis in different types of cancer.

from wikipedia:
The word "napalm" is derived from the words naphthenic acid and palmitic acid.

Dang, I like palm oil.
I use Palm, EV Olive, lard, butter
BBB!
Bring Back Bacon!
Agreed. My grandmother lived to 96. Granted my grandfather died at 59 or so. Grandma kept bacon grease for anything and everything. Granted she had 35 years of alone time. Maybe that’s the gift of long life.
Reporter: “So tell me Captain what’s you favorite ordinance?”
Fighter Pilot: “Why Napalm of course. It sucks the air right out of their f’ing lungs.”
Public Affairs Officer: “What the Captain means is that all ordinance is only delivered with the utmost care under controlled circumstances.”
I am very skeptical of this study.
Especially because palm oil is considered to be the root cause of deforestation by leftists.

You're soaking in it!
Bkmk
You can test for this. Omega 6 to Omega 3 ratio in your blood. Mine is 5.3:1 way lower than average American who is pushing 17:1. Key is increasing Omega 3 with fish, walnuts and flaxseeds.
Bump for later.
Caution for those adopting a high fat Keto diet to fight cancer.
Not all fats are equal.
Beef. It’s what’s for dinner.
Coconut oil. Not a large amount of Palmitic acid in Coconut oil.
Fatty acid content of coconut oil Type of fatty acid pct Caprylic saturated C8 7% Capric saturated C10 8% Lauric saturated C12 48% Myristic saturated C14 16% Palmitic saturated C16 9.5% Oleic monounsaturated C18:1 6.5% Other 5%
Wow! Amazing.
does butter have palm oil? I love butter. But am allergic to dairy. So I often do olive oil or vegan (Mikonos) butter. (Not sure what the latter has.). But real butter is the bomb!! :D
Interesting!
I get the Butter with olive oil and sea salt.
No, real butter has no palm oil.
I love butter, I fry my eggs in it at low temp.
I like lard, real lard not crisco which is cottonseed oil.
I like extra virgin olive oil...
Cornbread made with bacon drippings and served up with
beans or just a slice with butter...mmmmmm
