Olive oil, unlike Canola, has been proven to assist in reducing levels of amyloid plaques in the brain. These plaques have actually been shown to be at higher levels in Alzheimer's patients. Because of this, scientists needed to know if canola oil would have the same healthy result on our brains.
A research study was conducted at LKSOM (Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University) using 2 groups of mice. One group was fed a regular diet, while the other group's diet plan was supplemented with around 2 Tablespoons of canola oil each day. The results cast doubt on how healthy Canola Oil may actually be.
