A person in my raw food class recently asked about canola oil. I didn't have a lot of time to explain all the intricasies of why not to use this product but 2 things came to mind immediately. There is no such thing as a "Canola" so why is it called canola oil? There is olive oil , sesame seed oil, avocado oil...canola is made from a rape seed plant. Why don't they call it rape seed oil? (by the way VERY different from grapeseed oil which is fine to use). Why don't they call it rape seed oil because the rape seed plant is toxic! Even bugs won't eat it, and the number of processes that it has to go through to become canola oil is horrible. You don't want to eat it. Read on with Mike Adams' article...
PS I think any oil would kill bugs...but they use canola and soy bean because they're the cheapest. A holistic remedy that worked for my cats was put olive oil in their ears for mites. It worked too...killed the mites! I still won't eat canola oil or soy bean oil ( they can be GMO too--- another problem)
