Eat an oil

May 9, 2008

Ok, here is the word on Bragg’s Aminos-they are NOT cooked. I mean, really, you can get this info off of the company’s website.

Why is it that people are still unsure? Go right to the source and get what you need. With the internet out there, you can find everything you want to know.

But, don’t always go to the “positive” websites-the website owned by the company or by people selling a particular product. You will NOT get a clear idea from someone who wants to sell you something! Go to the “nay-sayer” website, too. You might learn something in the process.

As for me? I want to hear the good and the bad and then make up my own mind. Like for instance-Canola oil.

I will NOT touch it and it is everywhere. I ask restaurants if they use it and I will not go there if they do.

Who did these Canola guys bribe? It is so thoroughly processed that there is nothing left except rancid oil which in my opinion causes many health problems. Unfortunately, we cannot attribute these health problems to Canola Oil because it would be hard to track it down. But, if you have health problems, try cutting out the Canola oil for a month and see if that makes any change.

Just always stay with the pure, unprocessed (or as little processed as possible) oils like cold pressed Udo’s choice, or Cold pressed olive oil, cold pressed flax seed oil, etc. that is what I do!

You see, I am a Canadian immigrant and when I first came to Canada, I saw fields and fields of beautiful yellow flowers. My husband, at the time, told me that the flowers were for rape seed.

I had no idea what rape seed was so I asked him: “do you eat it like pumpkin seeds or sesame seeds?” He looked at me like I was crazy- “no, you don’t eat it,” he laughed at me: “it’s a machine oil. It has a high viscosity; breaks down very slowly under high heat-perfect for oiling farm machinery. But the only problem now is that there is a lot of run off”

Ten years later? That runoff is Canola oil-Canada Oil.

Now, for me, I would not like to eat an oil that is the discard of machine oil!

But, that is my personal opinion. And all I have is my ex-husbands words to base my decision on-but that was good enough for me. Then, of course, I read the web page that talks about all the stuff that is wrong with canola oil. Then it kinda all fit-what my ex said, what the page found out-all told me: don’t eat canola oil! So I don’t!!
