Guest guest Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 Can somebody help me out with some advice about oils. Prior to starting the diet, we used to give Denis fish oil for the Omegas 3 and 6. However, when we started the diet our dietician advised us to stop. She said the rape oil (called canola in the U.S.) would provide him with the Omegas he needs. Does anyone know if canola is enough. Should we be using other oils as well? Thanks for any advice. --Kasey, mother of Denis, 2.5 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 I used to use Udo's oil, which is the perfect balance of omega 3,6, and 9's. I saw improvement when my son was alive and we were supplementing with it. It is also all organic, and flora the company that produces it, promise's the oils are stripped from the planet using much smaller amounts of heat thus preserving the oils original useful properties. mom to Ethan 2/2003-4/2004 Oils Can somebody help me out with some advice about oils.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 There is a divergence of opinion on this subject, I would say no, canola by itself is not good enough. We used a mixture of flax oil, olive oil and either canola or sunflower oil. If you look into canola oil, you will find things that are both very posistive and very negative. So I used some, but not too much. I always get the omega 3s and omega 6s mixed up, but whichever one it is people tend to be deficient in, to my knowledge canola is not a good source of it. Flax oil is. Fish oil is also very healthy. Or you can used a blend like Udos oil. I think sticking with canola oil makes the diet much less healthy , 's mom kcv wrote: > > Can somebody help me out with some advice about oils.
