Palm Oil Has No Cholesterol

“Palm oil is also free of cholesterol, a waxy substance that can increase your risk of heart disease.”

This means it doesn’t pose a danger to people with high cholesterol. This means people seeking to reduce/control their cholesterol level (lipid profile) can fry stews, plantain and other foods without risk of increasing cholesterol levels.

Mind you, there’s good and bad cholesterol. Bad cholesterol is what causes heart diseases when ingested too much. But it can be brought down through measures like moderate exercise and proper dieting.
