I used to not pay attention to the oil's I cooked with.
I started paying attention to my cooking oil, when just two
weeks ago I Found out my cholesterol was very high.
I use the store brand '' Piggly Wiggly'' because the price is a little lower than name brand.
I love french fries, Fried Chicken etc.
Refined oil's do not require Hydrogenation, a process used to keep many oils to keep it from spoiling.
Hydrogenation causes ''trans fatty'' acids, that are thought to increase (LDL) Bad cholesterol, which can lead to Coronary Heart Disease.
Watch all oils that have been Hydrogenated.
I just looked at some oil....soybean, which has partially
hydrogenated soybean.
I hope this help's someone.
