What is the healthiest oil to use for cooking?
The healthiest oil to use is one that has primarily monounsaturated fats, and is low in saturated fats. Many doctors believe that the healthiest oil to cook with is Canola oil, and also Peanut oil. Olive oils are also considered by some to be the healthiest because they provide a mix of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, giving the oil a healthy balance of good fats. When looking for healthy oil it is always good to look for oils that are minimally processed as well, the more processed the oil generally the unhealthier the oil is.
