I’ve seen a lot of videos of cooking oils and i appreciate this one, it was straight to the point and concise, thank you

[@abhas1]

Absolutely love your content - thank you for explaining the science (and the whole truth) behind food!

[@satyam.shankar]

I think mustard oils deserved a special mention. The graphic on mustard Oils in the description seems to be too different from what is claimed in the market. The "Kachi Ghani" process or the Cold Pressed process is what is claimed by most manufacturers like Fortune, Patanjali, Dabur etc. It is also claimed to be cholesterol free, but the graphic in the description claims otherwise. Need more clarity if the Cold Pressed Mustard Oils are actually what they're claimed to be.

[@redblazer29]

Exactly forget about manufacturers claims our grandmothers and mothers have been using Mustard Oil since so long and also promote it to us for cooking. They're all fine. Need to understand what the real deal is.

[@NBKH-xo5ik]

Smoke point: This is the temperature at which the oil starts to burn. Vegetable oils like sunflower oil have the highest smoke point, followed by olive oil and then coconut oil. Ghee has the highest smoke point. Processing: There are two main types of processing - refined and unrefined. Unrefined oils are minimally processed and are considered to be healthier. Refined oils go through a chemical process to remove impurities. Cholesterol: Coconut oil is a saturated fat but it has MCTs which are good for brain health. Olive oil is good for heart health because it reduces LDL cholesterol. Here are some tips for choosing healthy cooking oil: Read the ingredient list: Look for unrefined, extra virgin or cold pressed oils. Taste the oil: If you can't taste the fruit the oil was extracted from, it is probably refined. Don't just focus on smoke point: While a high smoke point is good for frying, it doesn't necessarily mean the oil is healthy. Consume in moderation: All oils are high in calories.

[@amitmehndiratta2568]

Thanks. Once again brilliant video. Could you also cover a bit about mustard oil?

[@therealchickentender]

Asking for a like and subscribe at the beginning of a video is an almost sure-fire way to get many people to click off the video entirely. That said, I think your channel content is great and much needeed.

[@pankajtyagi]

Thanks 😊

[@getkishore]

How come Ground Nut oils are not even mentioned? It's a staple oil here down south!

[@HarshJain-it2bg]

I just visited your channel and saw your videos..... you really have made some very details analysis. Very good

[@TheWholeTruthFoodsYT]

Thankyou. And Welcome aboard!

[@meghap4945]

[@TheWholeTruthFoodsYT]

Glad you liked it!!

[@munshiiqra]

Watching this video & remembering the yummy banana chips fried in coconut oil that I just finished a week back and now craving for it

[@mayureshpatilindia7594]

i have been using cold-pressed oils since last year :)

[@saminagori9283]

Vry good n useful video thanx sir.can u tell me sir is kachi ghani peanut oil is ok to use.???

[@wholenest3708]

Really informative content on oils! 👌 Speaking of which, have you tried Honey Lavender Magic as a home remedy for burns? It's been a game-changer for me! 💜

[@kashmirahansotia9306]

Thanks for the confusion 😢

[@jeenanagpal]

Please do a detailed video on mustard oil for cooking

[@shwetarai268]

Sir the information given by you is very useful. Please do it in Hindi also.🙏 I can share it with my relatives. My relatives have some problem in English.

[@sumedhbhagwat]

Missed out on sesame & peanut oil . I believe they're best

[@anantagarwal5569]

Great content. But would suggest you read 'Deep Nutrition by Catherine Shanahan for a better understanding of saturated fats. I still think we are missing a key point when we discuss this topic, that of catalytic oxidation and how unsaturated fats are the most prone to it.

[@rupaligupta4887]

Please talk about mustard oil as well in detail.

[@aditya_on_youtube]

Hey Shashank, if I understood correctly, even expeller pressed sunflower oil is no good since it still contains a lot of LDL, even though it doesn't contain bleach or hexane. For Indian cooking using olive oil, which kind of olive oil is recommended? Regular, virgin or pomace?

[@ktthilagar6588]

In TamilNadu,we use Sesame oil, Groundnut oil traditionally.We will buy seeds and pressed them to oil in oil mills.Even though unrefined traditional oils are good to consume but not suitable for deeper frying.its better to reduce frying of foods.nowdays more health experts advices to avoid factory made oils

[@greatscythe1116]

Wanted some on mustard oil and ice bran oil.

[@achumitokupu]

i think the omega 6/3 ratio should also be a crucial deciding factor, along with PUFAs and MUFAs.

[@jimmijimmi7183]

Hello, can you tell me if MCT is contained only in unrefined coconut oil or refined too?

[@bhaveekjain4246]

Cold pressed Canola Oil are good right? I have replaced all refined oils in my house and use only cold pressed oils where canola is the cheapest and olive oil the most expensive

[@TheSmriti17]

Sir please tell about Mustard Oil...and make a channel in Hindi as well ...i want to show my parents.

[@mishong3]

Thank you for this video. At least there is some 'good' in coconut oil except for the sat. fat.

[@saberidasgupta983]

Is rice bran oil , physicals refined as they say, shud that be avoided too?

[@ankitaagrawal801]

I really like your video but I m little confused why mustard oil is not discussed?

[@BEYOUTOTHEFUL]

HELLO THX FOR THE VIDEOS I UST FOUND YOU. ANGELA

[@TheWholeTruthFoodsYT]

You are so welcome

[@redblazer29]

Recently found Avocado Oil as a much more healthier option.

[@stealthtomcat4739]

I prefer cold pressed mustard oil and ghee

[@priyapavan1541]

How about ground nut oil, i guess that is missed??

[@Gracia144JesusSaves]

✍️🖐️♥️📖 .Thank you so much for sharing youre insights this is realy confirming to me also from a biblical perspective ,our body is a Tempel of the Holy Spirit it is very importend we ask Him to guide us and ask Him how to nurture that Tempel because i know God wants that tempel youre body to stay healthy youre mind body and sprit .📯

[@aneevrian6557]

My North Indian friends always mocked and made fun of my South Indian food since we use coconut oil. They kept advising me to switch to vegetable oil because its healthy and appetising. Thankfully, I never switched. Years later, its all these northie friends of mine that has hypertension, diabetes, heart complications, thyroid and PCOS. I'm glad I listened to my mother and grandparents.

[@subbannar7319]

Coconut oil is certainly better than all other vegetable oil. It has got MCT. It is better to choose virgin coconut oil

[@roadnottaken2780]

Extra processed vegetable oils are the worst.

[@lisaivanova7296]

Thank you, please tell me what kind of coconut oil is needed for cooking, does it harden after that? please can you tell me, I have never cooked with coconut oil.

[@fiza3516]

We just use ghee 😎 n a lil mustard very lil in veggies

[@shrutip.3756]

What about groundnut oil

[@paridhiagarwal5677]

Anti inflammatory oil from Vedic Neutraceuticals is the healthiest oil I have come across till date

[@nomadicsoul2242]

What's your opinion of mustard oil?

[@kuldeepkaul3926]

What about rice bran oil?

[@AjayD-jv4mj]

Started using cold pressed peanut oil since last few months it's costs slightly more than refined peanut oil but it's the only cold pressed oil affordable . Affordable cold pressed oils are hard to find becoz small shops operate at low scale and need to check purity ppl adulterate it and still sell for higher price.🤦 Whole truth oil anytime soon?😁

[@shristisingh7383]

What about Cold Pressed sesame oil?

[@HareKrsnaHareRama]

Home made ghee for your offerings to Lord Krishna 🙏

[@TheParipelly]

Good one bro.. But give us a conclusion bro.. What to consume 😔👍

[@itsbonkerjojo9028]

Arey bhai bheje mein bhusa bhara hain kya tumhare huh ? I mean this all are for consumption afterall as we always have . He told you everything abt this oils from benefit to characteristics under that 3 points . So now chiose according to your preference and balance

[@rm_123sm]

What about mustard oil??

[@Keepitsimple749]

So in a nutshell cold pressed virgin coconut oil and ghee are our best options. But which oil is best for deep frying?

[@TheWholeTruthFoodsYT]

Ghee and avocado oils are the best of the lot to fry food ( and ofcourse avocado oil may put a hole in your pocket). But just a reminder: Frying is not the healthiest cooking method anyway, so please stay away from it as much as you can!

[@jeaniepecats419]

Ghee is the answer!

[@angadkumar4183]

Then why is unrefined palm oil bad?

[@aainamahajan9683]

I still don’t understand which oil to use- virgin olive oil or ghee or coconut oil?

[@subbannar7319]

Ghee and virgin coconut oil are better option.

[@laltoob]

Mustard oil?

[@tarunlahoti3083]

Great video! Few things I felt were leading or far fetched- 1. Reliance on 'studies' - did you study all papers? What was the sample size of the said paper? Who sanctioned the paper? How were other factors controlled especially where life span is the variable monitored 2. You can deep fry between 150-175°C - I don't see why other oils don't serve the purpose Some more bits but you get the idea - over generalised to make a strong statement Unfortunately this was not the whole truth!

[@askbabloo]

Are you nuts?

[@JustinaIredia-zc2oq]

Why don't make your own video for people to see?

[@SDM543]

First Industries came and promoted Refined oils killing natural small scale oil producers. Now so called cold pressed start ups are doing same. This is nothing but one industry trying to gain foothold over another and taking consumers for a toss. Eat drink everything in normal. Life will be normal.

[@rishabhjain6565]

Cold pressed cooking has very low smoking point for example cold pressed mustard oil has smoking point around 90°C, Therefore cooking below is smoking point is not possible and cooking above smoking point forms harmful compounds and nutrition get lost then does it make any sense to buy cold pressed oils

[@VinaySingh-hi9tg]

Hey are you Chatur from 3 idiots?😂

[@soumyadipbiswas174]

Mustered oil ?

[@TheWholeTruthFoodsYT]

Link in description for mustard oil!

[@ananyasarkar850]

What about mustard oil?

[@PVJK-tm7oy]

Seed oil. Stay away

[@keithwilliams6469]

ALL SEED OILS ARE MORE DANGEROUS THAN ANIMAL OILS AND HAVE LESS SMOKE POINTS SEED OILS HAVE THE LOWEST SMOKE POINT THAN COCONUTS AND OLIVE OILS.

[@zombietwenty]

What is the summary here. 1. Un refined is better. What else?

[@PVJK-tm7oy]

No seed oils

[@zombietwenty]

Spelling of boost is incorrect in graphic. Showing boasts!

[@TheWholeTruthFoodsYT]

oops! our bad.

[@blessedsoul6415]

Usually love your content. This time, disappointed as it felt incomplete 😔

[@jackstraton1]

Dr Eric says something else and over n above Dr. Steven Gundry says whatever is stated in his book "plant paradox" is a bible. Further, he go on prasing olive oil. This knowledge is overdosing. Our ancestors used to live a healthy life and don't get into so much detail. I think resorting to their teachings is conducive.

[@nshadow888]

American and European majority obesity, olive is not heat stable, only suitable as dressing.

[@harshshah823]

Ciao for now nai bola aapne. Day is ruined.

[@NamedSoni]

I wish that u have a Nicer Day.

[@shashankmehta2553]

Hahaha....sorry next time pakka :)

[@jackstraton1]

Furthermore, there is one more channel on dis youtube plantform called SAAOL where Dr. Bimal Chhajer appeals to avoid oil in any form completely. Even walnuts, peanuts etc. I'm doomed

[@pritamghosh4643]

Where's mustard oil, sesame seed oil, palmolein oil? No mention of MUFA to PUFA ratio. Wholetruthfoods spitting out half ass information now.

[@TheWholeTruthFoodsYT]

Link is in our bio sir.

[@SujjuBabu]

The king of oils - sesame oil doesn't even get a mention here huh?

[@TheWholeTruthFoodsYT]

Link in description!

[@weenuypokhrel2886]

U spelled testostrone and pronounced wrongly as well! The correct spelling is testosterone.
