Golden Fiesta Canola Oil: a rich source of cholesterol-reducing ‘phytosterol’

Enjoy your favorite fried dishes
 while safeguarding your cardiovascular
health with Golden Fiesta Canola Oil,
which is rich in the cholesterol-reducing
phytosterol nutrient. 

Heart-friendly is probably the last thing on your mind when you reach for the cooking oil in your kitchen shelf, with health buffs giving it a bad rap all these years. It’s time, then, to set things straight: while some cooking oils put your cardiovascular health at risk, others provide essential good fats that our bodies need.

In fact, did you know that some cooking oils reduce your risk of having coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular ailments?

One of the healthiest oils in the market that nutrition experts recommended is canola oil, which contains heart-healthy nutrients called phytosterols, and which is now being offered by leading oil brand Golden Fiesta by NutriAsia.

Phytosterol in canola oil reduces the risk of coronary heart disease

Eating fried dishes does not have to be an unhealthy
experience with Golden Fiesta’s Canola Oil,
which is a rich source of the heart-healthy nutrient phytosterol. 

Filipinos love fried foods. They love the crispy-crunchy sound these make with every bite, but they like the delightful taste of fried food—whether it’s chicken, beef, pork or fish—even better. How can else can you explain why Filipino families are big fans of fastfood chains that serve fried chicken, fried tapa, fried pork liempo, etc.?

This trend has raised the alarm among health advocates who associate frying with the liberal use of cooking oil, which is flagged as a product that is detrimental to one’s cardiovascular health.

Fortunately, not all cooking oils are the same, and not all of them are harmful to your body—not when you use the right one.
