Have a Healthy Lifestyle with Canola oil

April 15th 2009 11:11
For those that using the margarine to cook, do you know that it is not the healthy lifestyle? Although margarine is good in taste, but it’s still not an ideal option to use it too frequently in your daily cooking!

In order to overcome the above matter, you can choose to use the Canola oil. For your information, Canola is one of two cultivars of rapeseed, where the seeds are being used to produce edible oil. It has been claimed has lower levels of erucic acid than any other vegetable oils!




Do you know that the name “Canola” was derived from “Canadian oil, low acid” in 1978? After that, it has been widely cultivated and has become a major North America cash crop. According to the statistic, The United States and Canada produce over 7 to 10 million tonnes of canola seed every year.

Some of the benefits of using canola oil are:

1. It has very low level of saturated fat, which is seven percent or below.
2. It has less than two percent of erucic acid.
3. It has less than 30 umoles glucosinolates.

All the three above features show that canola oil is the better option to inhibit the happening of heart related diseases.

PS: Figure thanks to au.lifestyle.

I always use Canola, only because someone told me about it years ago and it's much more convenient that margarine or butter.

Some very good facts there, Wilson.
