Personally, I am glad they do have some control who is in their country, and where they are living, this is the reason most of Europe is buggered up, no control. As mentioned above, takes 2 minutes online,

Coconut oil all the way for me, makes great chips, the nutrition doctors on social media put me off Canola and seed oils a long time ago, when you learn how they are made. Coconut oil is relatively cheap in Thailand, about b20 more than seed oils. This From Perplexity AI Canola oil and other seed oils have been subjects of health concerns, particularly regarding their fatty acid composition and potential health impacts. In contrast, coconut oil is often considered a healthier alternative, but it also has its own set of considerations. Health Dangers of Canola Oil and Seed Oils High Omega-6 Fatty Acids: Canola oil and many seed oils (like soybean and corn oil) are high in omega-6 fatty acids. While these fats are essential, excessive intake can lead to an imbalance with omega-3 fatty acids, potentially promoting inflammation and related health issues such as heart disease 1 . Processing Methods: Many seed oils undergo extensive processing, including refining, bleaching, and deodorizing. These processes can involve high heat and chemical treatments, which may lead to the formation of harmful compounds like trans fats and oxidized fats that are detrimental to health 1 . Potential for Heart Disease: Some studies suggest that diets high in omega-6 fatty acids and low in omega-3s may increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases. This is attributed to the inflammatory response triggered by an imbalance in these fatty acids 1 . Is Coconut Oil a Better Alternative? Coconut oil is often touted as a healthier alternative for several reasons: Medium-Chain Triglycerides (MCTs): Coconut oil contains a significant amount of MCTs, which are metabolized differently than long-chain fatty acids found in many seed oils. MCTs can provide quick energy and may support weight management 1 . Antimicrobial Properties: Coconut oil has been shown to possess antimicrobial properties due to lauric acid, which can help combat harmful bacteria and viruses 1 . Stability at High Temperatures: Coconut oil is more stable at high temperatures compared to many seed oils, making it a better choice for cooking methods like frying or sautéing without forming harmful compounds 1 . However, it's important to note that coconut oil is high in saturated fat, which has been linked to increased cholesterol levels. Therefore, moderation is key when incorporating it into the diet. In summary, while canola oil and other seed oils pose certain health risks primarily due to their fatty acid profiles and processing methods, coconut oil may offer some benefits as an alternative. Nonetheless, a balanced approach that includes a variety of healthy fats is generally recommended for optimal health. Related

The Biggest Heist in Modern Political History !
Seppius replied to CharlieH's topic in Political Soapbox
If they were going to use the money raised positively maybe it would be good, but they won't, they have shown that already Labour will honour a pledge of £11.6bn in overseas aid for the climate crisis, the energy secretary said, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has pledged £84m for projects in Africa and the Middle East to stop illegal migration "at source". (like that will work) Spend the money in this country -
