Hi panicked
I think that she was probably concerned about corn oil having alot of linoleic acid in it, which may be bad for her2 breast cancers. There's a nice little chart in the articles submitted part that details the effect of various fatty acids on increasing or decreasing her2ness in breast cancer cells in the test tube.
In general, it would seem to be a good idea to stick to olive oil for cooking, since corn, cottonseed, safflower, sunflower oil (and evening primrose oil!) are over half linoleic acid. Flaxseed oil also seems to have a good balance of beneficial fatty acids to linoleic acid and of the non-olive oil cooking oils, canola seems o.k.
