Cel mai bun ulei pentru gătit: de ce variantele scumpe nu sunt neapărat și cele mai sănătoase

Seed oils, including sunflower oil, face viral warnings linking them to inflammation and chronic diseases. However, experts suggest a more nuanced view. Evidence does not support claims that omega-6 rich oils cause inflammation when consumed in moderation. Sunflower oil remains a cost-effective option with versatile uses. High temperatures can affect oil stability; refined canola oil is recommended for regular cooking. Contrary to popular belief, extra virgin olive oil can be safely heated. Coconut oil, high in saturated fats, should be used sparingly. A practical kitchen can function well with a neutral oil for frying, extra virgin olive oil for flavor, and optionally, a strongly flavored oil.
