and sunflower seeds into “high
oleic” versions rich in oleic acid,
a form of monounsaturated fat.
These modified seed oils have fat
profiles similar to that of olive
oil, which we say is a very
healthy choice, and may be
confusing to consumers trying to
make smart oil choices. Don’t be
fooled. Unlike extra-virgin olive
oil (which is always pressed
without the use of high heat,
solvents or extraction chemicals),
most of these high-oleic oils are
still highly refined—processed
using unhealthy chemicals and
heat. In addition, you can’t
always trust these new forms of
“cold pressed” oils, as the use of
the phrase is often nothing more
than a marketing technique. The
smartest choice is to avoid all
grace
