Now you cut that out Oob , there are vast areas still undeveloped there . They are 100-150 years behind the US and a lot of other countries , why point the finger at them just because its a fashion at the moment .I don't think they run trains to shoot animals seen as not needed just yet .
I was totally unaware these Palm oil producers were using slash & burn to clear rain forests and killing endangered species to establish Palm oil plantations. I thought rain forest destruction was only happening in South America.
unlaoised: What about avocado oil, almond oil, rose oil...etc etc?
Yes, Avocado Oil is good too.
Coconut Oil Coconut oil also has powerful health benefits. It is particularly rich in a fatty acid called Lauric Acid, which can improve cholesterol and help kill bacteria and other pathogens.
The fats in coconut oil can also boost metabolism slightly and increase feelings of fullness compared to other fats.
Olive Oil Olive oil is well known for its heart healthy effects and is believed to be a key reason for the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet.
It can raise HDL (the good) cholesterol and lower the amount of oxidized LDL cholesterol circulating in your bloodstream.
Avocado Oil The composition of avocado oil is similar to olive oil. It is primarily monounsaturated, with some saturated and polyunsaturated mixed in.
It can be used for many of the same purposes as olive oil. You can cook with it, or use it cold.
Seed- and Vegetable Oils Vegetable Oils Industrial seed and vegetable oils are highly processed, refined products that are way too rich in Omega-6 fatty acids.
Not only should you not cook with them, you should probably avoid them altogether.
These oils have been wrongly considered “heart-healthy” by the media and many nutrition professionals in the past few decades.
However, new data links these oils with many serious diseases, including heart disease and cancer.
Nut Oils and Peanut Oil There are many nut oils available and some of them taste awesome.
However, they are very rich in polyunsaturated fats, which make them a poor choice for cooking.
The main difference between polyunsaturated fat and monounsaturated fat (like olive oil) is the structure. Monounsaturated fatty acids are linked by one double bond, but polyunsaturated fats are linked by multiple double bonds. This structure is unstable and wreaks havoc on the cells in your body. It contributes to oxidation and free radical damage in the body, which is linked to heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, autoimmune diseases and premature aging.

Therefore, olive oil and coconut oil are not the only ones fit for human consumption
