OTOTOT: Thank you for your great post. However I noticed you didn't include Canola Oil on your list, which has the great advantage over Olive oil in that it's about 1/4 the cost, yet seems to have a similar mono:poly:saturated ratio. Wonder if you can give us an opinion on this? Thanks again, Gary >I should have mentioned about some of the good things I heard of olive oil. The incidence of heart disease in people who use olive oil is less than in the general population. Olive oil has monounsaturates in the ratio 73 parts to 8 parts of polyunsaturates. Better monounsaturates than saturated fats. Better poly than monounsaturates. That is for sure. Coconut oil is the worst offender when it comes to saturated fats.
