PUFA Foods and Sources - Nutritional Wolves in Sheeps Clothing | Doctor Scott Health Blog

Cooking Oils with Low Omega-6 – Avoid cooking with cottonseed, safflower, corn, peanut, soybean, sunflower, sesame, walnut oils. Instead use butter, coconut oil and olive oil. Canola oil is okay; it contains omega-6 fatty acids but is only at about a 2:1 (omega-6 to omega-3) ratio, which isn't too bad. Use it sparingly. If trying to heal an inflammatory disease I recommend cutting canola altogether.
