Missing from the report is the fact that canola oil is a GM product as are almost entirely all vegetable oils here in the US.
Recall that India formerly had rape oil sellers that made the rounds daily to furnish freshly ground rape seed oil to customers. This is what we call canola here in the US. The demise of the rape seed oil sellers was accompanied by extreme violence against the sellers as to collectively ban these individual sellers and to allow the manufacturing of this vegetable oil in a factory which is then sold on store shelves rancid. There is no way to preserve vegetable oil from rancidity, that is why it was prepared fresh. The rancidity robs vitamins from the blood stream. Odorants and other additives camouflage the rancidity. Note this collectivization also benefits the land owners.

Of course, alternative news and medical reporting websites have been talking about how bad rapeseed (canoloa) oil is for humans, for at least a decade,...
These are the websites that corporate, government and illiterate levels of power

If you would read the paper, you will find that heretofore 'no data are available on the effect that canola oil consumption may have on any of these (neurodegeneration) models and the development of their phenotypes.'. The alternative news sites may have been right, but they arrived at the conclusion without scientific studies.

I hope someone suggests to the researchers that they run two groups: one with GMO canola, and one with organic canola. It is time to investigate this, as GMO is always mentioned as perhaps the main factor, when it may possibly have zero to do with the results.

I always use Extra Virgin Olive Oil

There is no better

The warnings that I've seen over the years for canola oil are based on the erucic acid and glucosinolate content of rapeseed. Erucic acid causes damage to heart muscle in some animals. Low Erucic Acid Rapeseed (LEAR), which replaces erucic with oleic acid, was developed for human consumption, though there is no evidence that erucic acid in food harms humans.

This is SILLY and CRAZY. Giving mice 280 extra calories per day of ANYTHING will make them into sluggish little tubs. SOOO poorly designed. No control in the supposed control group.

The title of this article does not match the results of the study. It is another media/press release misrepresentation of what the authors found. What they found was that in mice made to develop physical neurological pathologies of brain degeneration, those that ate a massive amount of oil and got fat had slight alterations in one of six memory assessments, had less of a protein associated with neural integrity and also had less of one kind of protein found in beta-amyloid plaques, which change their ratios. It does not say anything about Alzheimers in humans, it does not show radical changes in memory. It says that fat mice fed oil for half their lives have slight physiological and behavioral differences. My full critique is published on Medium under Kevin Folta.
