Oil is an ingredient that should always be in the kitchen. It is used for frying, baking, and salad dressing. There are many different types of oils on the Ukrainian market now, but not all of them are safe for the body. Therefore, you should take a serious approach to choosing such a product.
FoodOboz editorial team will tell you which oil is the most harmful. It is especially dangerous to use it for frying.
This oil is used most often because it is quite budget-friendly and versatile. Its taste is neutral and goes well with many foods. But it is the one that is the most toxic to the body, especially when heated. We are talking about sunflower oil. If you're used to frying potatoes or chops in it, you can put your body in danger.
What happens to oil when it is heated
When exposed to high temperatures, very strong toxic substances are released from the oil. Eating them can cause serious illness.
Do not heat the following oils either:
- sesame
- linseed
- corn
- almond
- rapeseed
Which oil is best to use
Choose oil that contains a lot of saturated fat and at least 15% polyunsaturated fat. The following types of oil are the safest for the body:
- coconut
- avocado
It will be very useful to cook dishes based on butter, as well as use melted fat from pork, duck or beef.
