What's the main health benefits of olive oil vs canola oil? also can you safely fry things in fry pan using olive oil?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Avoid Canola Oil: The way it is processed and can be genetically engineered. It's from the rapeseed, a variant of mustard. Olive oil is much better. In general, avoid vegetable oils and run from corn oil, another gmo. Yes, you can fry w/olive oil. Peace and good health.
