What it is

Canola oil is a vegetable oil made from the seeds of the canola plant. The plant is a cultivar of rapeseed, bred to have lower levels of erucic acid. The oil is extracted from the seeds and then refined.

Why it's used

Canola oil is used as a cooking oil and as an ingredient in many processed foods. Its neutral flavor and relatively low cost make it a popular choice for manufacturers. It is often found in salad dressings, baked goods, and fried foods.

Health notes

Canola oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, including omega-3 fatty acids. JECFA has evaluated canola oil and established an acceptable daily intake. Some studies suggest potential benefits for heart health, while others have raised questions about its processing and effects on inflammation, though evidence is mixed and often debated.

Allergen info

Canola oil is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It is also gluten-free.
