Abstract

The article explores the health implications of different cooking oils, emphasizing the importance of choosing the right oil for overall well-being. It discusses the chemical composition of oils, the impact of saturated and unsaturated fats on health, and the benefits of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Extra virgin olive oil emerges as a top choice due to its monounsaturated fat content and high levels of antioxidants.
