How much hexane do you think is in oil you buy off the shelf
like, zero?
Then what are you talking about? Who's cooking with Hexane?
Hexane can be an extremely low-percentage product of scorching some oils. But the temperatures needed to produce the hexane are far higher than hexane's boiling point, so it's all bullshit. It'll be volatilized away as soon as it's produced.
The other anti-seed-oil trope is that scorching seed oils produces free radicals. Free radicals are highly reactive and can be carcinogenic. But you get free radicals whenever you burn any sort of food, and it has long been known that cultures where people consume lots of burnt food have higher rates of esophageal and stomach cancers. That's why most real nutritionists (the ones who do science, not the ones who con the gullible) say "Don't eat burnt stuff."
A little searing is probably OK, no need to give up the Maillard reaction entirely. But if it's charred, your cancer risk increases about as much as smoking a pack a day (smoking is another source of free radicals and combustion products).
No one. Perhaps I was too subtle. These granola eaters think people are but there's no hexane left once the oil is packaged
