Unhealthy oils

In our country Pakistan, many people use the cheapest and most unhealthy oils in their homes, hotels and restaurants. These oils cause serious health problems like heart disease, obesity and high blood pressure. According to health experts, as many as 30 per cent of deaths in Pakistan are due to heart diseases because of consuming unhealthy oils.

These oils increase oxidation and rancidity, leading to various health issues. The government should take immediate action to eradicate the sale of unhealthy oils and we should start using healthy oils like olive oil, mustard oil or desi ghee.
