It’s always a better option to cook with olive oil or coconut butter. Certain seeds and fish oils are high in essential poly-unsaturated fats but their active nutrients are damaged during high temperature cooking and frying. During frying, sautéing, and baking foods avoid poly-unsaturated fats that generate oxidizing free radicals. Saturated fat like coconut butter or mono-unsaturated oil like olive oil is a better option.
Olive oil is highly beneficial in a fat burning diet. Though it does not contain any significant amount of essential omega fats, it is considered better refined than sunflower oil. We know that a high amount of saturated fats can be obtained from meat and dairy products. This is mostly responsible for the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases. But olive oil poses no such threat. The diet of the Mediterranean countries poses a lower risk of cardiovascular ailments. The cold-pressed olive oils also contain small amounts of phyto-chemicals which reduces transfatty acids.
