What kind of oil is safe and healthy for frying?

mrhealth (37)in #health • 6 years ago

Most Indonesians love to eat fried foods. Whether it's fried tempe tofu, bakwan goreng, fried banana, or fried chicken as a side dish.

The problem is cooking by frying into the way of cooking is not good for health. Therefore, oil contains saturated fat which if consumed in excess in the form of fried can lead to increased cholesterol, high blood pressure, to obesity.

Then, how do you keep your body healthy even if you eat fried foods? Of course you should be wise in choosing the oil to be used for frying. Avoid using oil with saturated fatty acid content and choose healthy oils.

According to an alerts article from Boldsky, you can use coconut oil for frying.

Several studies have shown that the quality of coconut oil will not worsen, even after being used to fry food up to 180 degrees Celsius. Plus, coconut oil is mostly made from healthy fats.

Still from the same article, you can also use olive oil or oil from avocados for cooking to keep your body healthy.

Good luck!
