Let’s break this down together and uncover the truth about what cooking oil to use and avoid.

What Does “Refined” Really Mean?
We often hear the word refined and think, “Oh, that must be better, right?” But in the world of oils, it’s the opposite. Refined oils are stripped, chemically altered, and processed for shelf life—not your health.

1. Stripped with High Heat & Hexane
Most worst cooking oils like vegetable, corn, and soy are extracted using high heat and chemical solvents such as hexane—a chemical also used in industrial cleaning. This process destroys nutrients and leaves behind toxins that damage your cells.

God-designed oils like olive oil are gently pressed, keeping nutrients intact. But to extract oil from soybeans or corn, you need machines, heat, and chemicals—far from the natural way.

2. Deodorized to Hide Rancidity
If an oil has to be deodorized, ask yourself: Why? Because it’s already rancid. Our sense of smell helps us detect spoiled food. Deodorization masks that signal.

These deodorized oils are often used in processed foods and fried items—making them a hidden danger in the modern diet and one of the worst cooking oil categories.

3. Bleached for Appearance
Refined oils are also bleached to appear clean and clear—but natural, healthy oils like cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil often have a rich tint. What you see reflects what you get—nutrients and vitality.

Why Choosing the Right Oil Matters
Consuming unhealthy oils daily adds up. A diet high in omega-6s from processed oils leads to:

Chronic inflammation

Hormonal imbalance

Brain fog

Gut issues

Premature aging

Increased risk of heart disease and cancer

That’s why knowing what cooking oil to use and avoid is key to making healthiest cooking choices that align with how God designed your body.
