Guest guest Posted September 6, 2001 Report Share Posted September 6, 2001 Hi again , Get away from cooking in oils and fats. High heat turns them into trans-fatty acids, and they aren't too good for us. Use olive oil as much as possible, as it contains more of the necessary fatty acids. Unless there is a milk allergy problem, use butter NOT margarine. Avoid canola oil. As for corn oil or soy oil, both cause man more allergic problems than most people know. I found years ago that corn allergy/sensitivity is a major cause of chronic headaches, and was the first to publish this finding in the Orthomolecular Medical Journal.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2001 Report Share Posted September 6, 2001 Phil, What about High Oleic Safflower oil? I have heard that this oil is also acceptable along with olive oil for high heat cooking. Jody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 6, 2001 Report Share Posted September 6, 2001 Hi Jody, Unfortunately, high heat tends to destroy one of the three essential fatty acids (My memory - can't remember which one but it's found in fish oils, flax seeds, and evening primrose oil for some). We get too much of the other two, and way too much of the trans-fatty acids (after high heat). Olive oil is one of the best, and I just don't have enough information on the High Oleic Safflower oil to give advice. I do know that Safflower oil is one of the best. Avoid canola oil, and for many corn and soy (often labeled " vegetable oil " , although neither is a veggie - corn is a grain, and soy is a legume). Many people are either allergic or sensitive to one or the other and few know that. Phil Bate PhD Jody Goddard wrote: > Phil, > What about High Oleic Safflower oil?

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2001 Report Share Posted September 6, 2001 Many children are highly reactive to CORN. It can cause aggression or withdrawal. Please be sure your child is non reactive before using things that will depress thier immune system or cause a neurological reaction. Many of our Autistic children are just as reactive to corn and soy as they are to wheat and dairy. Pat O. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 6, 2001 Report Share Posted September 6, 2001 Phil, I know there has been a lot of discussion about whether canola oil is " good " or " bad " , but could you tell me what you know about it and why you say not to use it. My son is allergic to olives and so I don't use olive oil. I don't know of any other cooking oils that are okay to use for him. Thanks, Re: [ ] Re:OILS/Coconut vs others Hi again , Get away from cooking in oils and fats. High heat turns them into trans-fatty acids, and they aren't too good for us.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2001 Report Share Posted September 6, 2001 Hi , I'm not a real expert on oils, although I was fairly expert 20 years ago. I do know that canola oil is an artificial oil made in Canada (then the first 3 letters of the name). I have heard many bad stories about it. I thought until fairly recently that it was OK, and learned differently on my bulletin board (orthomolecular ). If your kid is allergic to olives, how about Safflower oil. It's one of the better oils. I am not familiar with High Oleic Safflower, but it sounds like it might be pretty good for cooking and all other uses. BTW, you can test any foods for allergy/sensitivity using the pulse test outlined at: http://www.add-biofeedback.com. There is also a Caveman diet that many have used to help find allergies/sensitivities. Sorry not to be more help.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2001 Report Share Posted September 7, 2001 -try grapeseed oil. It's high in antioxidants, and doesn't break down into bad fats as easily as other oils.
