Greetings!
Are You Putting Motor Oil in Your Food?
If you use Canola oil you are! It's been marketed for years as a "good"
alternative to other fats, but a group of
chemists practically made it up from scratch. It isn't found
anywhere in nature. Canola is an
artificial, processed oil made from a special man-altered breed of rapeseed plant which doesn't need
sunlight, soil, or rain to thrive. Sound creepy enough?
Like high fructose corn syrup, Canola oil was developed because it is so cheap to make. The problem is that this process involves high temperature
pressing in metal vats, bleaching, soaking in acid, "deodorizing," and blasting with chemical solvents.Traces of these
chemicals remain in the oil, particularly hexane, which is also a
component in gasoline. Its toxic effects on the body are well
known. Canola oil has been shown in animal studies to cause heart lesions and other health issues, so make the switch to organic olive oil, butter from grass fed cows, or coconut oil today! Special X Gym Boot Camp Benefits Haiti
