Bust Those Myths
In a feature article on PopSugar.com, registered dietitian Julie Upton helps readers debunk nutrition myths often debated online. One such myth is that canola oil is made from rapeseed plants, which she explains is false. While canola and rapeseed are cousins, they are distinctly different in their composition. Upton confirms that canola oil is safe and healthy, as it has less saturated fat and more heart-protective, plant-based omega-3s than other common cooking oils.
