In this video, we’re going to talk about the best and worst oil for deep frying.

Seed oils are polyunsaturated fatty acids. Vegetable oil is actually seed oil—it doesn’t come from vegetables.

Seed oils go through industrial processing involving heating and the addition of solvents like hexane, a chemical found in gasoline. This process allows seed oils to be shelf-stable for long periods of time. Around 25% to 30% of our calories come from seed oils.

When you cook processed foods like donuts in seed oils, you’re combining sugar with fat and heat. This process, called glycation, creates sticky proteins in the body.

Fast food oil is reheated and reused repeatedly. The more it’s heated, the more toxic it becomes.

Seed oils were not originally created for human consumption. They’re incredibly damaging to the mitochondria and lead to insulin resistance, fatty liver disease, obesity, heart disease, and an increased risk for cancer.

Soybean oil causes the most damage to the body, followed by corn oil, sunflower oil, and canola oil. Healthier cooking oils for frying include avocado oil, coconut oil, palm oil, olive oil, beef tallow, butter, and ghee. Keep in mind it's best to cook over low or medium heat. Pan-frying, air-frying, and stir-frying are healthier options than deep-frying over high heat.

A few years ago i gave my last bottle of canola oil to my husband for use in the garage. He now uses it to lubricate parts and quench metal as it comes out of the fire. These seed oils don't belong in the kitchen or in our bodies, but in the garage or the garbage!!

I am 65, had hyper tension, anxiety and an irregular heart beat. I eat healthy and I got a DIVORCE and I am recovering nicely. 👍

About ten years ago at 49 years old I started to swell badly. I was suffering from ischemic cardiomyopathy (coronary artery disease). There were many reasons for this, most contributory was my diet. After open-heart surgery, I learned much about diet and removed seed oils completely from my diet and use only olive oil and avocado oil when cooking. About a year after starting this, my cholesterol started dropping below the amount that it was stabilized at with meds. I attribute this to this change in diet. This is an excellent video!! I am surprised there isn't more professionals informing the public this way. Thanks!

I use seed oils for chain saw chain oil. So far my saw is cancer free😂😂😂.

Should be illegal to false advertise on food labels

I went on a tour of an olive oil processing plant in Italy. It had been family owned for generations, their trees were hundreds of years old. The owner was very passionate about the pain staking process it takes to extract the oil, especially with the oil being cold pressed. He insisted that once the oil is heated during cooking, not only does it undo all their meticulous work to cold process it, but that it becomes toxic in the body. He said EVOO should only be consumed room temperature as dressing on food or salads to maintain its nutritional integrity. Made sense to me. Just something to consider.

My Grandmothers fried with lard, made homemade butter, buttermilk, used raw cane sugar, baked several cakes per week. They all lived past 96. The last one passed in 2003. I’ve gotten less healthy since I started eating healthy. Too bad, I’m going back to the old way of eating at home. I rarely eat fast food maybe 3x’s a year.

We stopped using canola and other seed oils a few years ago. In their place, we usually use butter, Pork Lard, Beef Tallow, Olive oil, and avocado oil, in about that order. We very rarely eat out because we get a gross feeling afterward. Almost no processed foods in our diet and we feel better for it!

I remember working at McDonalds when I was a teen. Fries and nuggets were fried in Beef Tallow.... Big blocks of it were put in the deep friers. Things tasted better too

[j.corbygaming]

Meat Fat, Avocado Oil, High Quality Butter. Simple!

I noticed this after I went ketogenic carnivore.

I started cooking with butter and the natural fats that come out of the meats and my bloating was nonexistent, my mind was clearer and I generally felt a lot better.

This past weekend I had a McDonald's with my daughter as a treat and to eat something with her. I've been so ill that past two days...

[Chris-klsn]

Just remember McDonalds used to use tallow until the vegetarians and vegans ruined it for everyone.

Did you know that you have a YouTube channel in Arabic with 6 and a half million followers? You are a truly wonderful doctor. I always follow you from Algeria

It's amazing that the things "they" told us were bad, were actually good. Great content.

Grandma still alive and she's eaten coffee, bread, tea, mutton and sugar for most of her life. She's 90+ and is more mobile and cognizant than most 70 year olds.

There has been many vids like this that never had an impact on me.
But this worked. I actually learned something that i will act on.
Tnx! 👍

If our ancestors ( -1800 ) never cooked with it - neither should we.
Lard, Tallow, Suet, Butter.... coconut oil and olive oil.

[cohansirdi]

I’m from Punjab, India.54yrs old.We never used anything except ghee or mustard oil in our house, ever, since I remember, neither my mother or my grandmothers.We were all healthy, fit and fine.And every ancestor has lived above 80.

Switched to coconut oil years ago. The process of making coconut oil is really simple. We heat coconut milk (pressed out from coconut flesh), and the liquid would separate into water and oil. If we cool the oil part, it would thicken so much like butter, opaque white in colour. No chemical or pressure is needed in the process.

As a brit i just wanted to say that your sarcasm is top notch 😂
