This surprises me, and I question if it is correct. Certainly I try to avoid

genetically engineered anything. But my introduction to canola was through a

colleague of mine (James Sperandeo, PhD) when I lived in Phila. He is a PhD

clinical biochemist who also had a medical school background and was a

chiropracter. He works with people for prevention and treatment of all kinds

of health conditions, specializing in the treatment of cancer patients.

According to Jim, olive oil was the best bet for general purpose consumption,

along with canola oil, esp. when the oil was to be heated to high temperature

(as olive oil has a lower burning point). My understand is, as stated in the

article you sent, that trans fatty acid should indeed be avoided, AND that

neither olive nor canola oil is one of the baddies!

I've read this info for a few years now and avoid canola oil. Have you

checked out coconut oil for high temp? This stuff seems good for lots of

things.

Hi Karen,

 

This was surprising news to me too when I first heard it. I thought

there was a canola plant out there doing its thing and that is how

we got canola oil.

 

I tried to look up more information about this for you, but it seems

to be one of the divisive topics that you get a bunch of he said/she

said sort of stuff. Not terribly helpful. But from what I

gathered, everyone agrees that canola oil is the result of

manipulation.

 

For me, that fact alone decides where I draw the line. That may

still be acceptible territory for others, that is fine too.

 

Be Well,

Misty
