Questions and Answers > Who's Raping who??
My answer is a resounding NO! Canola oil is also known as "rape seed". It is a dirty son of a bitch that is heavily perfumed to mask how rancid it really is! Canola oil and all other rancid fats will lodge themselves deep into fat cells and give too much junk in the trunk! Very common in BIO-SIGNATURE, but not normal.Here is just one scientific study showing the negative effects.
Basically there is NOTHING good about canola oil except for the cheap price. . . hmm Do you think that is why so many local restaurants and even "healthy cafes" use soo much canola oil?
"Canola oil took the market by storm, as it is relatively inexpensive to produce, especially compared to olive oil. Olive oil has a long history of scientifically documented health benefits. The problem with olive oil is that there is not enough olive oil in the world to meet the industry's needs. In addition, olive oil is too expensive to use in most processed foods. Canola oil has filled this need for a mass-produced, publicly acceptable form of a monounsaturated oil.
In addition to the genetic modification, the process of making Canola oil is troubling. The procedure involves a combination of high-temperature mechanical pressing and solvent extract, usually using hexane. Hexane! Even after considerable refining, traces of the solvent remain. Like most vegetable oils, Canola oil also goes through the process of bleaching, degumming, deodorizing, and caustic refining, at very high temperatures. This process can alter the omega-3 content in the oil, and in certain conditions bring the trans fat level as high as 40 percent."

I frequently get asked "Is Canola oil ok to use?"
Many people comment that it was recently touted as "the oil to use" for pretty much everything.
