Why Canola Oil?
Canola oil contains only 7% saturated fat, lower than any other common cooking oil. That leaves 93% good-for-you fats, including omega fatty acids. Choosing canola oil can help you and your family maintain a healthy diet. Choosing PAM makes it easy.
For more information on canola oil, visit the Canola Council of Canada website.
Why Soybean Oil?
Soybean oil is low in saturated fat which means it's a healthy choice for your family's diet. Soybean oil is cholesterol-free and contains essential fatty acids that your body doesn't naturally produce. These acids help to regulate smooth muscle contraction and blood pressure.

Why Olive Oil?
Olive oil has no cholesterol and may help reduce your risk of heart disease by removing LDL or "bad cholesterol" from the bloodstream and leaving HDL or "good cholesterol" behind. Research also suggests that replacing saturated oils in your diet with olive oil may reduce women's risk of breast cancer.

Why Palm Oil?
Palm oil is a valuable antioxidant rich in beta-carotene and vitamin E. The natural form of palm oil is trans fat-free making it a great choice in meal preparation. Palm oil has also been shown to help increase HDL or "good cholesterol" levels.
