Thank you for saving me the time to do some due diligence on this.

There are enough real bogeymen out there without taking at face value all the false internet nonsense swirling around.

Sheesh... color me clueless. I've seriously thought that Canola was
one of the acceptable oils when it comes to health. Darn. šŸ„ŗ

It is.

Oleic acid (65.4%ā€“67.7%) is the dominant MUFA and palmitic acid (12.8%ā€“13.4%) is the main SFAs, and linoleic acid (13.5%ā€“15.2%) is the main PUFAs in avocado seed oil.

"I think think he, for whatever reason, is anti-science as his personal ideology. his non-nutrition videos use the same playbook of willfully misrepresenting studies and bringing on quacks while obscuring their actual credentials. he has videos where he says that massaging your head reverses hair loss, and that pressing your tongue on the roof of your mouth is how you get a strong jaw, among other non-nutrition videos he's made where he peddles disinformation."
 
You can go bonkers trying to figure out what the best oils are since the "experts" either disagree with one another or change their minds.

I kept reading that expeller or cold pressed oils are supposed to be the healthiest since they aren't produced by excessive heat or with chemicals to produce the oil.

I like the expeller pressed hi-oleic sunflower at Trader Joe's. It's been a good everyday oil for everything. I also like their olive oil from Greece when they have it.

I still like to use butter & locally produced lard from the butcher shops for baking & frying. Also let's not forget leftover bacon grease.
 
Basically, if the food we eat isn't fresh its most likely bad for you.
Course knowing the soil it was grown in is important too. If it's
prepared by industry, fast food, whatever its bad stuff ya ingestion.
So many go for lunch, pick up a bag of stuff at a Metro Mart and a
Big Gulp.

Yes you can

Or you can continue using any food, including canola oil, in moderation if you want to.

And I don't think credible sources really disagree that much - if one fact checks claims and reads what the actual study says,not the hyped up media report.

anyway, I will do the 2nd of the 2 options.

Well the issue is seed oils in general. Canada merely enters the picture because of the rebranding of rapeseed oil for human consumption.

I'm not even sure the farmers can be blamed for that. More likely it came out of Ottawa as centralized agri-industrial policy. The U.S. has a similar problem with encouraging growing excess corn just to feed production of ethanol as a poor and corrosive automotive fuel substitute with a net gain in carbon emissions.

Subsidies and other incentives make it hard for farming to ignore such economic tinkering.

It's not just rebranding. It's a changed plant with the toxic parts bred out of it.

Absolutely the moderation way is good, but the question is...what is the accumulation affect! Maybe 1mg per day is fine, maybe 30 mg a month is fine. But what happens over years and years and years of ingestion?
As per my research any oil or food for that matter that uses toxic chemicals to extract something from it can't be good. I mean watching those videos or reading the process to extract those oils reads like industrial manufacturing motor oil or something!
 
I think we have come so far away from natural eating that you can't see the line we crossed so far back!
All this talk of organic non-organic food...my great grandfathers farm when they first came to Canada in 1874 was 'organic' the whole time. Never chemicals or pesticides ever. Never wanted to make money from the farm, so all he and his son cared about was producing for his family. After my grandfather retired from CN, (they had moved to the city many years earlier) he thought about starting to make money from the farm and top up his pension and help the grand kids make some money.

He inquired about getting the farm certified organic. Ha what a joke! He had soil, tree, grasses, water samples done, by a contact that worked in the industry, and all came back clean as a whistle. Pure natural, clean...organic. But in order for the govt to do the same and register it as organic, it would cost thousands and thousands of dollars, plus have to follow ridiculous rules in perpetuity, not to mention registrations, permits and so on.

So, he politely told the govt where to shove it, and started selling his farm products anyway. Listed them as organic regardless. The local community knew all the farmers in that area were natural and organic anyway. Anyone who asked him or his kids about being organic, he would simply show copied of the testing he had done.

But the question begs...shouldn't all food be 'organic'? Why do we put toxic, poisonous products on our grasses, veggies, etc? Shouldn't we know better? We took what was natural organic healthy good for you food and turned it into a organic vs non-organic, and now decades later we are all on forums like these questioning everything! Disease rates, obesity, medical drug use off the charts, rising health care costs and so on.

Yet most still look for the answer to health! I think we all know what it is. It's pretty self evident, but too much govt and big ag and big corp interference and creates division, lies and deceit!

Any food eaten in sensible amounts is fine, no need to measure the grams. ( barring allergies or relevant medical conditions, of which I have neither.)

I don't have any concerns about it.

Farmers say that Roundup forced them to use their product by controlling seed availability, by finagling government intervention, etc. And I understand that the GE Roundup plants were spread by the four winds and could not be held within boundaries anyway.
And agriculture is controlled more every day by big business.
We're doomed, you know.
