I generally stick to searches on scholar.google.com.
I usually follow correlations, biological mechanisms of action, statistical significance, and meta-analysis to make a judgement on whether something is generally healthy. I agree that oils and fats in general are not good in excess, but it is pretty clear when taking into account those 4 pillars of scientific analysis that saturated fats are far more damaging to one's health than unsaturated fats.
Don't take my word for it though. It only take a few weeks of trial and testing on one's health and habits to see results for yourself.
That's why I highly recommend everyone adhere to their own diet and get tested with a lipid panel and an apolipoprotein-B test to see that diet's effects on their health. It is the strongest biomarker we have for cardiovascular health. Unfortunately it isn't a part of most standard lipid panels yet, even though it should be.
