RE: Canola Oil As A Replacement For Olive Oil In Cooking: A Foray Into Alzheimer's

Leave my oils alone! 😬

There's little cooking without oils 😫

An oil with a similar profile of fats was sought, and one was found in Canola oil

It's funny how people will say "food x is as beneficial as food y", simply based on a resemblance in their molecular structure or something of the sort. As if the butter/margarine fiasco wasn't enough to tell them the slightest difference might have huge implications.

What the data in this study does illustrate is that the health benefits afforded by the consumption of olive oil don't appear to be reproduced by canola oil in this one Alzheimer's mouse model.

Have there actually been similar mouse studies showing the opposite findings for olive oil?

Why did the researchers go through all of this effort, and not include a third chow group where rather than canola oil, OLIVE OIL was supplemented.

I always comment as I read, and then I see this... Exactly...

Yes, olive oil is known to have protective effects

margarine is one molecule away from being plastic, I have been told. Rats will not eat margarine, but they will eat butter.
