Canola Oil

[Guest guest]

A while back my husband gave me an article on the hazards of canola oil. (I

tried looking for it on the web, found it and lost it!) Since I read that

article, I no longer use canola oil.

 

I did buy baby food for Sofie (organic and vegetarian!!). I was disturbed

to see canola oil in many of the varieties. I did not buy those.

 

Now in reading your comments about DHA, canola oil is once again mentioned.

 

Have any of you researched canola oil? I am attaching a Word 97 document

with three articles I found on the web w/their URLs. I have scanned the

document for viruses and found none.

 

A couple of comments from two of the articles include:

 

Canola oil is made from a strain of rapeseed-a naturally toxic plant-that

has been bred to be nontoxic. Some people do not trust that all the toxins

are removed, and, therefore, do not use canola oil in any form.

 

Canola oil comes from the rape seed, which is part of the mustard family of

plants. Rape is the most toxic of all food-oil plants. Like soy, rape is a

weed. Insects will not eat it; it is deadly poisonous! The oil from the rape

seed is a hundred times more toxic than soy oil.

 

Let me know what you think. Thanks.

 

Deb

I have not yet read the attatchment you have sent but I am quite

comfortable using both soy products and canola oil. I did read a

article about toxins in oils a few monts ago. It said that in cold

pressed oils toxins are not an issue, but it is in the hydrogenated

and partially hydrogenated oils. It also said that the toxins are (I

think) increased when heated.

 

Thanks for the info though,

 

Summer
