Show notes

Prepare to uncover some startling truths about the avocado oil industry and dig into the nuts and bolts of olive oil. This episode unravels shocking revelations from recent studies by UC Davis, revealing that many avocado oils on the market are not quite what they seem.
They're often cut with cheaper, lower-quality oils such as soybean, sunflower, and safflower oil. We will draw back the curtain on why avocado oil is in high demand, its profound health benefits, and the dire need for regulation in the industry. What's more? We'll disclose the only two brands that passed the purity test - Chosen Foods and Mari-Marians.
We also turn the spotlight on olive oil, exploring its diverse types and how it stacks up against avocado oil. Learning how to store these oils properly to prevent oxidation and how to spot if they've gone rancid is crucial, and we'll guide you through it.
Wrapping up, we let our hair down with a fun speed round where we put some lifestyle choices to the test. We compare sweeteners, oils, and a lot more. This episode is packed with valuable insights that will up your game in the kitchen and aid you in making healthier culinary choices. Buckle in!
