The specialist named vegetable oils: sunflower, corn, olive. According to him, the most beneficial is olive and the most harmful is sunflower. But olive oil is the most expensive option, so not everyone can afford it.
Therefore, the “average” option in terms of utility and budget is corn oil.
The doctor explained why sunflower oil is considered the most harmful for frying. When overheated, the polyunsaturated fatty acids in this product lose their properties. As a result, these substances can lead to cognitive problems and chronic inflammation that can lead to the development of Alzheimer’s disease.
“A good alternative has recently appeared – high oleic sunflower oil – an oil that replaces omega 6 acids with oleic acid, the content of which in some varieties reaches 80%,” said the nutritionist.
