Nina, thanks for your valuable information. Many salad dressings being touted as "healthy" use Canola oil in their ingredients. These food companies really know how to make us sick. Josephine Hawaii
that Canola is a genetically engineered plant, created by bombarding the seeds with radiation. Regardless of how the oil originated, at least 50% of today's Canola crop is genetically engineered by the Monsanto corporation to make it resistant to its herbicide Round Up. Assuming the best-case scenario-that your Canola oil was never genetically engineered, that it's organic, and even considering its beneficial monounsaturated fat content-the enormous pressure with which it is processed produces high heat, which creates harmful fatty acids. So it might be wise to avoid Canola oil entirely. [Copyright 2001 by Nina Silver] ******** It took me a long time to figure out what the story is on Canola oil, based on the numerous truths and half-truths floating around. I hope this helps clarify the issue.
