Healthy Cooking Oils: Canola Oil for High Heat, Safflower Oil for Medium, and Olive Oil for Low

Healthy Cooking Oils: Why They Matter
Using healthy cooking oils like canola oil, safflower oil, and olive oil can have a huge impact on your heart, your appearance, and your overall level of health. This article explores the nutritional content of the three most healthy cooking oils, along with practical tips on how to use them in your kitchen. Making these healthy cooking oils a part of your cooking can increase your vibrancy and resilience in everyday activities, and lower your cholesterol levels, decreasing your risk level for serious diseases and illnesses. Even if you're not concerned about your cholesterol levels, the regular use of any of these healthy cooking oils in place of fattier, unhealthy oils will help you feel better, lose weight, and fight the aging process. Read on and get to know the three most healthy cooking oils, plus learn a few tips on how and when to use each one.

High Heat: Canola Oil
Canola oil packs a major dose of monounsaturated fat, which is often called the "healthy heart fat," and with scientifically demonstrated reason. Nutritional experts agree that including a moderate amount of monounsaturated fat in your daily diet is great for your system, and especially your heart. Using healthy cooking oils like canola oil is one of the easiest ways to slip monounsaturated fat into your meals without taking on lots of other kinds of fat. Healthy cooking oils like canola are low in "bad" fat, aka saturated fat, so you can use them without worry. Plus, canola oil is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, a key component of heart health. Canola oil is great for high heat cooking, and can easily take the place of peanut oil or vegetable oil for frying and searing.
