Debatable. Seeds are very high in omega6 fatty acids which should be balanced with omega3. They also can go rancid more easily which is not healthy to eat.

I noticed this article also subscribes to the “saturated fat is bad” way of thinking which is also debatable.

Sources high in omega 6 are also high in omega 3.

> They also can go rancid more easily

More easily than what for example?

High omega 6 does not imply high omega 3 (see https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/optimize-omega-6-omega-... )
