What is the primary reason that monounsaturated fats are recommended over polyunsaturated fats?
The latest clinical studies, one involving over >340,000 people in NA and Eurpore indicate a combination of mostly monounsaturated, and some polyunsaturated fats is best. Monounsaturated fats are more stable for cooking (olive oil) and should represent about 90% of your fat intake. Polyunsatruated fats substantially reduce Heart disease risks, but should be relatively fresh to prevent a speculated increased risk of cancer. A very small handfull of walnuts, sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds per day can meet the 5% intake.

"Researchers combined data from 11 American and European cohort studies in which a total of 344,696 participants free of known heart disease were followed for a period of 4-10 years. During that time, 5,249 participants had a coronary event (eg, heart attack) and 2,155 died from heart disease.
Participants lowered their consumption of saturated fats by 5% and replaced these lost calories with either PUFAs, MUFAs, or carbohydrates. The rates of coronary events and deaths in each group at the end of the follow-up period were:
- PUFAs: 13% decrease in coronary events, 26% decrease in coronary deaths
- MUFAs: no association with coronary heart disease was noted
- Carbohydrates: 7% increased risk in coronary events, no significant change in risk for coronary deaths"

Suggest a reason that linoleic acid is classified as a polyunsaturated fatty acid and oleic acid is classified as a monounsaturated fatty acid?
Linoleic acid has more than one double bond in its carbon chain, making it polyunsaturated. Oleic acid has only one double bond, making it monounsaturated. The number of double bonds determines the classification of the fatty acid.
