Canola Oil Health Risks

• Canola oil (also known as rapeseed oil) was first extracted in the early 1970s. In 1995, Monsanto created a genetically modified version; over 90% of the production is genetically modified.

• Canola oil is hydrogenated; it is also called trans fat. Trans fats increase your risk of developing heart disease and many other health problems.

• When heated, it creates chemical compounds that encourage the growth of cancer cells.

• It negatively affects the cardiovascular system, elevates blood pressure, and can even trigger strokes and heart disease.

• It interferes with healthy brain function by decreasing memory.

• It can encourage the development of Alzheimer’s disease, the most common form of dementia.

• Canola oil creates inflammation in the body.

• It attacks healthy cells, blood vessels, and tissues instead of protecting them.

• It feeds pathogens and is abrasive to the arteries.

• It interferes with proper liver and kidney functions.

• The erucic acid in canola oil harms infants due to their inability to properly break it down (even so, it is still FDA-approved).

• It worsens conditions such as PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome), endometriosis, PID (pelvic inflammatory disease), uterine fibroids, and ovarian cysts.

• It also eats away at all linings in the body—from the stomach and intestinal tract linings to veins, arteries, the heart, kidneys, bladder, ureter, urethra, and, if you’re a woman, the linings of the reproductive system.
