Whether deep frying or pan frying, you can skip adding all of the fats that are detrimental to a healthy diet and weight loss by using sunflower oil instead of shortening or lard. The mass produced food industry is converting to sunflower oil because of the fact that it is more stable at the higher temperatures required in mass frying of food items, such as potato chips, and also because of the dietary benefits of the oil.
Sunflower oil may be a little more expensive than other oils or shortening, but the dietary and nutritional benefits of using it instead of other oils outweighs the slight difference in price.
What Makes Sunflower Oil Healthy Medical science has been telling us for quite some time that we need to cut down on the amount of saturated fat while increasing our intake of polyunsaturated fats, which are essential to a healthy body. Sunflower oil has 10 grams of saturated fat, which is much lower than other cooking oils, and 66 grams polyunsaturated fat, which is significantly higher than the other oils. These numbers mean sunflower oil is a very healthy cooking oil. It’s also very high in Vitamin E, which benefits your skin and hair, among other things.
