Rapeseed oil reduces health risks
"Abdominal fat increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and is also associated with increased risk of metabolic syndrome and diabetes," study author Penny M. Kris-Etherton of Pennsylvania State University said in a report in the journal "Eurek Alert ". "Simple unsaturated fats in rapeseed oil reduce this fat, which has adverse health effects."
In their study, the team of scientists had studied the effects of diet with certain vegetable oils on 101 obese subjects. The participants, who were divided into several groups, received two smoothies each day, mixed with corn, linseed or three different types of rapeseed oil.
Unsaturated fatty acids target belly fat
It turned out that those who consumed rapeseed oil had lost a quarter of a pound of belly fat after a month, and that the weight had not spread elsewhere on the body, such as the hips or buttocks.
"As a general rule, you can not target specific areas of the body," says Kris-Etherton. "But simple unsaturated fatty acids seem to specifically target belly fat."

The benefits of rapeseed oil have also been found in other studies. According to German scientists, it is even better for some people than olive oil. Researchers from the German Institute for Nutrition Research (DIfE) in Potsdam-Rehbrücke have found that rapeseed oil can improve cholesterol and liver values even more.
