Canola is trash oil. It is made from a noxious (read toxic) weed that
has been genetically altered and the oil is then processed by
hydrogenating (embued with hydrogen atoms) to withstand spoiling. All
hydrogenated oils are poison to our bodies but this one is probably
one of the worse ones. (hydrogenating vegetable oils is very similar
to the way that the first plastics were made.)

Canola Oil - A must Read
Before you buy your next bottle of cooking oil...
I think it's important that as many people as possible KNOW about the
origins of this product. Then, if you choose to buy it, at least you're
doing so with your eyes open.
RAPE IN A DIFFERENT GUISE
Dear Editors
Recently I bought a cooking oil that's new to our supermarkets, Canola
Oil.
I tried it because the label assured me it was lowest in "bad" fats.
However, when I had used half the bottle, I concluded that the
label told me surprisingly little else and I started to wonder: where does
canola oil come from? Olive oil comes from olives, peanut oil from
peanuts,
sunflower oil from sunflowers; but what is a canola? There was nothing on
the label to enlighten me, which I thought odd. So, I did some
investigating
on the Internet.
There are plenty of official Canola sites lauding this new "wonder"
oil with
all its low-fat health benefits.
It takes a little longer to find sites that tell the less palatable
details.
Here are just a few facts everyone should know before buying anything
containing canola. Canola is not the name of a natural plant but a made-up
word, from the words "Canada" and "oil". Canola is a genetically
engineered
plant developed in Canada from the Rapeseed Plant, which is part of the
mustard family of plants. According to AgriAlternatives, The Online
Innovation, and Technology Magazine for Farmers, "By nature, these
rapeseed
oils, which have long been used to produce oils for industrial purposes,
are... toxic to humans and other animals". (This, by the way, is one
of the
websites singing the
praises of the new canola industry.)
Rapeseed oil is poisonous to living things and is an excellent insect
repellent. I have been using it (in very diluted form, as per
instructions)
to kill the aphids on my roses for the last two years. It works very well;
it suffocates them. Ask for it at your nursery.
Rape is an oil that is used as a lubricant, fuel, soap and synthetic
rubber
base and as a illuminate for color pages in magazines. It is an industrial
oil. It is not a food. Rape oil, it seems, causes emphysema, respiratory
distress, anemia, constipation, irritability, and blindness in animals and
humans. Rape oil was widely used in animal feeds in England and Europe
between 1986 and 1991, when it was thrown out. Remember the "Mad Cow
disease" scare, when millions of cattle in the UK were slaughtered in case
of infecting humans? Cattle were being fed on a mixture containing
material
from dead sheep, and sheep suffer from a disease called "scrapie".
It was thought this was how "Mad Cow" began and started to infiltrate the
human chain. What is interesting is that when rape oil was removed from
animal feed, 'scrapie' disappeared. We also haven't seen any further
reports
of "Mad Cow" since rape oil was removed from the feed. Perhaps not
scientifically proven, but interesting all the same. US and Canadian
farmers
grow genetically engineered rapeseed and manufacturers use its oil
(canola)
in thousands of processed foods, with the blessings of Canadian and US
government watchdog agencies. The canola supporting websites say that
canola
is safe to use.
They admit it was developed from the rapeseed, but insist that through
genetic engineering it is no longer rapeseed, but "canola" instead. Except
canola means "Canadian oil"; and the plant is still a rape plant, albeit
genetically modified. The new name provides perfect cover for commercial
interests wanting to make millions. Look at the ingredients list on
labels.
Apparently peanut oil is being replaced with rape oil. You'll find it
in an
alarming number of processed foods.
There's more, but to conclude: rape oil was the source of the chemical
warfare agent mustard gas, which was banned after blistering the lungs and
skins of hundred of thousands of soldiers and civilians during W.W.I.
Recent
French reports indicate that it was again in use during the Gulf War.
Check products for ingredients. If the label says, "may contain the
following" and lists canola oil, you know it contains canola oil
because it
is the cheapest oil and the Canadian government subsidizes it to
industries
involved in food processing.
I don't know what you'll be cooking with tonight, but I'll be using olive
oil and old-fashioned butter, from a genetically unmodified cow. Here is
more information..........Canola oil from the rape seed, referred to
as the
Canadian oil because Canada is mainly responsible for it being marketed in
the USA.
The Canadian government and industry paid our Federal Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) $50 million dollars to have canola oil placed on the
(GRAS) List, "Generally Recognized As Safe". Thus a new industry was
created. Laws were enacted affecting international trade, commerce, and
traditional diets. Studies with lab. animals were disastrous. Rats
developed
fatty degeneration of heart, kidney, adrenals, and thyroid gland.
When canola oil was withdrawn from their diets, the deposits dissolved but
scar tissue remained on all vital organs. No studies on humans were made
before money was spent to promote Canola oil in the USA.
Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is a rare fatal degenerative disease caused
by a
build up long-chain fatty acids (c22 to c28) which destroys the myelin
(protective sheath) of the nerves. Canola oil is a very long chain fatty
acid oil (c22). Those who will defend canola oil say that the Chinese and
Indians have used it for centuries with no effect, however it was in an
unrefined form ( taken from FATS THAT HEAL AND FATS THAT KILL by Udo
Erasmus). My cholesterol level was 150. After a year using Canola oil I
tested 260. I switched back to pure olive oil and it has taken 5 years to
get it down to 160. Thus began this project to find answers since most
Doctors will say that Canola oil is O.K.
My sister spilled Canola oil on a piece of fabric, after 5
pre-treatings and
harsh washings, the oil spot still showed. She stopped using Canola oil,
wondering what it did to our insides if it could not be removed from cloth
easily. Our Father bred birds, always checking labels to insure there
was no
rape seed in their food. He said, "The birds will eat it, but they do not
live very long.". A friend, who worked for only 9 mo. as
a quality control taster at an apple-chip factory where Canola oil was
used
exclusively for frying, developed numerous health problems.
These included loose teeth & gum disease; numb hands and feet; swollen
arms
and legs upon rising in the morning; extreme joint pain especially in
hands,
cloudy vision, constipation with stools like black marbles, hearing loss;
skin tears from being bumped; lack of energy; hair loss and heart pains.
It has been five years since she has worked there and still has some joint
pain, gum disease, and numbness. A fellow worker, about 30 years old, who
ate very little product, had a routine check up and found that his blood
vessels were like those of an 80 year old man. Two employees fed the waste
product to baby calves and their hair fell out. After removing the fried
apple chips from the diet their hair grew back in.
My daughter and her girls were telling jokes. Stephanie hit her mom's arm
with the back of a butter knife in a gesture, "Oh mom" not hard enough to
hurt. My daughters arm split open like it was rotten.
She called me to ask what could have caused it. I said, "I'll bet anything
that you are using Canola oil". Sure enough, there was a big gallon jug in
the pantry.
Rape seed oil is a penetrating oil, to be used in light industry, not for
human consumption. It contains a toxic substance. Even after the
processing
to reduce the erucic acid content, it is still a penetrating oil. We have
found that it turns rancid very fast. Also it leaves a residual rancid
odor
on clothing.

Canola oil is a health hazard to use as a cooking oil or salad oil.
It is not the healthy oil we thought it was. It is not fit for human
consumption, do not eat canola oil, it can hurt you. Polyunsaturated
or not,
this is a bad oil.

expert Tom Valentine, Canola Oil Report.
