Olive oil versus canola oil
Do not fall into the hype which is put out by traditional medicine regarding the promotion of canola oil (rapeseed) as superior due to its concentration of monounsaturated fatty acids. Olive oil is far superior and has been around for thousands of years. Canola oil is a relatively recent development and the original crops were unfit for human consumption due to their high content of a dangerous fatty acid called euric acid.
If the taste of olive oil is a problem, or if you are frying or sautéing food, then you should consider coconut oil. Many nutritionally misinformed people would consider this unwise due to coconut oil's nearly exclusive content of saturated fat. However, this is just not the case. Because it has mostly saturated fat, it is much less dangerous to heat. The heat will not tend to cause the oil to transition into dangerous trans fatty acids.

Eli rypsiöljy=rapeseed oil... varsinkin väite siitä että kookosöljy on hyvä vaihtoehto siksi että se ei kuumentuessa muodosta vaarallisia rasvahappoja VAIKKA sisältää melkein ainoastaan huonoja rasvoja, on varsin epäilyttävä kehoitus. Etsin lisää piakkoin :D
