Things you may not know about vegetable oils:

1️⃣ Vegetable oil (and not saturated fats) have been shown to cause heart disease

2️⃣ The majority, over 90%+, of vegetable oils (canola oil, corn oil, soybean oil, grapeseed oil, or rice bran oil) are GMO. GMO foods can contain glyphosate. Glyphosate is an endocrine disruptor and a probably carcinogen, a cancer causing chemical

3️⃣ Vegetable oils are highly processed and oxidize. Consuming oxidized oils has been studied to show that it causes damage to brain cells, lead to inflammation, and increase the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease

4️⃣ Canola oil is high in Omega 6. When our body intakes too many Omega 6 and not enough Omega 3’s, it can promote many diseases, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, and inflammatory and autoimmune diseases

5️⃣ Anytime you eat out you can assume they are using vegetable oils because they are cheap and neutral flavored.
 As you can see, they are very inflammatory. Olive oil, avocado oil and coconut oil are all healthier and safer options, providing health benefits too. We use all three in our home when cooking and baking as well as ghee, tallow and grass fed butter.
 Did you know this about vegetable oil? Questions? Leave them below!

P.S. I’m doing a follow up post showing foods we buy that we don’t realize canola oil is hiding in.
