Canola Oil
- Saturated fatty acid content in the range of 6% to 7% ‐lowest of all oils
- “Crude canola oil contains significant levels of minor components with associated health beneficial properties. Of particular interest are the fat soluble compounds , Tocopherals sterols and carotenoids.” Enhancing Canola oil Quality Through Retention of bioactive Compounds
- Carotenoids 90-100% are removed in refining as these are held in the colour pigments. Lutein is the carotenoid that prevents macular degeneration. It is in crude canola oil at levels that promote health benefits
Current commercial processing losses
– 40% sterols
– 50% tocopherols
– 90% carotenoids
We will be the only plant that can separate the first press oil and market this as an edible quality producing Extra Virgin Canola Oil (XVCO) which has less than half the saturated fats of XV olive oil and 9 times the Omega 3 and 2.75 times the amount of Omega 6, see table below.
| OIL | Omega-3 | Omega-6 | Monounsaturated fat | Saturated fat |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Canola | 9 | 22 | 62 | 6 |
| Olive oil (extra virgin) | 1 | 8 | 77 | 14 |
