Canola Oil Provides Safety and Nutrition

Because heating cooking oil beyond its smoke point can change its chemical makeup, taste and nutritional value, it’s important to choose an oil that is suited for high-heat cooking, notes the Globe and Mail. With canola oil’s high smoke point, it is highly recommended for stir-frying and sautéing. Canola oil is also a good source of omega-3 fat, which may protect against heart disease.
