The Healthiest Oils to Cook With (And the Ones You Need to Avoid!)

In today's episode,Dr. Jockers explains why oxidative stability is more important than smoke point when choosing cooking oils. He shares how saturated fats like coconut oil and grass-fed butter are the best options for cooking. You'll also learn why oils high in polyunsaturated fats, like canola and soybean, should be avoided due to their instability when heated. Dr. Jockers recommends using extra virgin olive oil raw to preserve its antioxidants and suggests it for salads and marinades.
