# Is Canola Oil Good or Bad?

**By Paula Gallagher** · 2010-08-25

The answer according to [Natural News](http://www.naturalnews.com/029516_canola_oil_fraud.html) is that it is bad with a capital B. After years of thinking that canola oil was a healthy oil to use, recent evidence is showing otherwise. Learn how unhealthy canola is [here](http://www.naturalnews.com/029516_canola_oil_fraud.html). Think you are getting essential fatty acids by using canola oil? Think again. It ranks lowest of all oils in terms of health benefits, so stick to unprocessed oil like olive oil and grapeseed oil.
