Canola oil is a topic that evokes different opinions and discussions about its health properties. Here are some pieces of information that may help you understand this topic: Advantages of canola oil: - Healthy fatty acids: Canola oil is a rich source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are essential for heart health. - Low saturated fat levels: It has lower saturated fat content compared to other vegetable oils, which is beneficial for the circulatory system. - Rich in vitamins and antioxidants: It contains vitamin E and other antioxidants that can support overall health. Potential controversies and considerations: - Presence of erucic acid: Some varieties of rapeseed may contain erucic acid, which can be harmful in large amounts. However, in most commercially available canola oils, the erucic acid content is low enough not to be a problem. - Proper storage: Canola oil should be stored in a cool and dark place to avoid oxidation and loss of nutritional value. - Individual reactions: Each individual's body may react differently to various types of oils. Therefore, it is worth observing how your body reacts to consuming canola oil and adjusting the amount in your diet according to your own needs.

"Rapeseed oil is one of the most popular edible oils in the world. It has many health benefits, but it can also cause certain harmful effects when consumed in excess. Rapeseed oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids such as omega-3 and omega-6, which are essential for our body. Regular consumption of this oil can help lower bad cholesterol (LDL) levels and increase good cholesterol (HDL), which is beneficial for heart health. However, it is important to consume rapeseed oil in moderation as it is still fat, and excessive fat intake can lead to overweight and health problems such as heart disease and diabetes. For individuals allergic to rapeseed, consuming rapeseed oil may lead to allergies or allergic reactions. Therefore, it is important for people with such allergies to avoid consuming this oil. In conclusion, rapeseed oil can be a healthy addition to our diet as long as it is consumed in moderate amounts. If you have any doubts or concerns, it is always worth consulting with a doctor or dietitian to obtain individual recommendations regarding its use. It is also worth checking the source of information and being aware of the impact of organizations funded by EU funds on the content promoted on some channels on the YouTube platform."

Rapeseed oil has many forms: cheap and easily available in discount stores, it is a fat derived from rapeseed grains but obtained through a production process that destroys many bio-components and leaves trace amounts of fat solvents. For several months now, I have been cold pressing rapeseed oil myself, which I bought online (82 PLN for 25 kg), using a small Chinese machine. The oil is not very durable but tasty and aromatic, so I press only 0.5-1 liter at a time. The leftover meal is eaten by chickens and they produce delicious eggs.
