Polyunsaturated oils contain two types of essential fatty acids omega-3s and omega-6s, said Arthritis Foundation.
The health charity added: “Omega-3s are found in oily fish, flaxseeds and walnuts and are known to be anti-inflammatory.
“Omega-6s are found in oils such as corn, safflower, sunflower, soy and vegetable and products made with those oils.
“Excess consumption of omega-6s can trigger the body to produce pro-inflammatory chemicals.
“They aren’t especially bad and shouldn’t be avoided, but you don’t want them to dominate your intake.”
