Canola oil is oil made from crushed canola
seeds. One of the best oils for heart health, canola oil has
less saturated fat than any other oil commonly used in the U.S.
Cutting down on saturated fats helps cut your cholesterol levels.
Canola is a crop with plants from three to five feet tall that
produce pods from which seeds are harvested and crushed to create
canola oil and meal. These plants also produce small, yellow
flowers, which beautify the environment. Canola seeds contain about
45 percent oil.
