Thanks, Eileen

Canola oil is a GMO and some studies have found adverse side effects of use. I checked Healthline.com and found some good info. Just asked is canola oil healthy. Personaly have never used it.

Canola oil is GMO, and it’s best not to do anything synthetic, esp when one has a medical issue. 100% Italian or Portuguese olive oil is not cut with other cheaper oils.
According to Healthline and others, Olive oil is rich in monounsaturated oleic acid and is anti-inflammatory. Olive oil protects against stoke, heart diseases type-2 diabetes, and Alzheimer’s.
Canola oil is highly refined. Some studies show that a high ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 can raise your risk of certain diseases and conditions, such as Alzheimer's, obesity, and heart disease.
