Day 13: The Power of Cooking Oils – Which One is Best for Your Health?
Hello dear friend,
Today let’s talk about something very common in our kitchen – cooking oil. But did you know that the oil you use can either build your health or break it down over time?
🛢️ Not All Oils Are Good for You
Some oils are highly processed with chemicals and can cause inflammation (body pains, swelling, and even diseases). These oils include:
Vegetable oil
Canola oil
Sunflower oil (highly processed type)
These are cheap, but they’re not friendly to your heart, liver, or overall health.
✅ Better Choices for Healthy Living
Here are some better options you should consider using in your kitchen:
Cold-Pressed Coconut Oil – good for the brain, digestion, and boosting immunity.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil – rich in healthy fats, great for heart health and salad dressings.
Palm Kernel Oil (native style) – a good source of antioxidants if locally processed.
Avocado Oil – packed with nutrients and good for high heat cooking.
🧪 Why These Oils Are Better
These natural oils contain Omega-3 and Omega-9 fatty acids, which help reduce inflammation, improve heart function, and support brain health. They are also less processed, meaning they still carry their original nutrients.
👨🏽🍳 Chef’s Advice
When buying oil:
Check for “cold-pressed” or “extra virgin” on the label.
Avoid oil that smells off or turns black quickly while frying.
For deep frying, use stable oils like coconut or palm kernel oil.
💬 Did You Know?
Using the wrong oil daily can lead to health issues like high blood pressure, liver problems, and even infertility. Start choosing better today.
