Which cooking oil is the best for health and flavor?
Every cooking oil industry makes health claims such as: Olive Oil lowers cholesterol, helps to prevent cancer, cures headaches, and increases sexual appetite. Or, Coconut oil is good for weight loss and healthy skin. Or, Flax seed oil shortens recovery time and helps to prevent breast cancer.
Here we will attempt to shed some fat on the subject of cooking oils!!!
The Bad Fats
Trans-Fat = Raises bad cholesterol while lowering good cholesterol.
Examples of Trans-Fat include: Trans fat is basically unsaturated vegetable oils injected with hydrogen so that the fat will become more solid and less likely to spoil. This type of fat is very common in baked goods such as: crackers, cookies, cakes, french fries and doughnuts.
Saturated Fat = Raises total blood cholesterol, both good and bad. Examples of Saturated Fat include: Red meat like pork or bacon, poultry, butter, whole milk, coconut, palm oil, and other tropical oils.
The Good Fats
Monounsaturated Fat = This type of fat will lower the total cholesterol level by lowering bad cholesterol (LDL) and raising (HDL) good cholesterol. Examples of monounsaturated fat include: olive oil, peanut oil, canola oil, and avocado oil.
Polyunsaturated Fat = This type of fat will lower both good cholesterol and bad cholesterol. (ldl & hdl) Examples of polyunsaturated fat include: Safflower, corn, sunflower, cottonseed, and soybean vegetable oils.
