Here is a short excerpt from a quick update sent to subscribers of the Xtend-Life newsletter that I highly recommend you subscribe to. A subscriber has asked a question and Nicolien, Xtend-Life’s qualified medical herbalist provides an answer. Perhaps it answers a question you’ve been wondering about too.
Question: From Tony. (Subject: Cooking oils?)
I just ordered your fish oil for the first time and was reading the latest newsletter and you mentioned in response to someone’s question that canola oil is man made and could be carcinogenic. What kind of cooking oil do you recommend and why?
Answer: From Nicolien.
For cooking, grape seed oil is the one of choice as it does not get converted to a trans fatty acid [Ed]when it is heated. For salads, cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil or flax seed oil are the best. None of these oils have any potential carcinogenic properties.
