As I understand it, canola is the same as rapeseed oil, or is a refined version of it. For what I think are obvious reasons, I stay away from refined oils.
However, where I live I can get locally produced cold pressed "extra virgin" rapeseed oil. How would you say that compares to canola oil regarding how healthy (or trashy) it is?
- loudtieblahblah 5y agoImho it's too high in omega6s And the omega3s it has is ALA, which your body has to convert to EPA or DHA to use, and the conversion is usually crap. Like 5-10% of ALA actually becomes something usable. Rapeseed isbetter than canola due to the processing for canola raising the omega6 profile even higher. But if it were up to me? I'd find another oil.
