Energetic Nutrition: Canola oil
Canola oil? "So what", you say
A friend shared with me on Twitter a post about Canola oil that I thought would be of interest and brings up three key points
1 Canola oil is actually a modified mustard seed(rapeseed) oil Modified because used alone it would be potentially poisonous Named Can-ola because of Canada origin and -ola from the word payola popular in the 1980's when the word was coined
The product was developed because of the concerns by the science intelligentsia in association with the government at the time that the problem with our nutrition needed to be "fixed" The public had been led to believe that polyunsaturated states were good but then findings came along that there were health related issues with these foods with heart disease and cancer
This led to movement toward monosaturated oils such as olive but volume was a problem Just not enough olive oil to go around So to process mustard seed oil and get rid of the bad monosaturated fats required processing and Canola oil was born
2 The matter science nutritional community pushed for the oil based on the fact that their earlier molecular recommendations about polyunsaturated fats were not tenable They had to come up with another molecular solution
But the concern now in studies is that the processing of mustard seed oil changes the omega 3 fatty acids which do not carry the same health benefits
3 Now there comes a concern about GMO foods The plant has been genetically modified so that it is more
herbicide resistant and will have less of the omega 3 fatty acids
Some observations
1 We are led to believe that our scientific community is giving us correct information but that this is based on the next study The matter science nutritional material is only as good as the year that it is written
What are we to do as health conscious consumers? The energy science nutritional information is reliable and is unique in that it individualizes food choices based on the energy pattern of the person choosing
2 Modified foods are of concern, altered by their production or worse yet GMO altered
Organic, fresh locally grown, nonmodified foods are best The best oil that can be used by everyone is ghee
Until tomorrow To health as a Skill Love DrBill
