Description
This is one of the most common variants used in Indian kitchens. The industrial seed and vegetable oils are highly processed with rich Omega-6 fatty acids content. These oils are not at all fit for cooking and one should avoid them altogether. These oils are also often advertised to be ‘heart healthy’, which is not true, instead such oils can lead to some serious diseases like heart problems and even cancer.
Cooking oils that you should avoid include:
- Soybean Oil
- Corn Oil
- Cottonseed Oil
- Canola Oil
- Rapeseed Oil
- Sunflower Oil
- Sesame Oil
- Grapeseed Oil
- Safflower Oil
- Rice Bran Oil
A study conducted in U.S. Market has discovered that most of the cooking oils easily available in departmental stores contain between 0.56 to 4.2% trans fats, which are highly toxic.
