High Oleic Acid Content
Source: Canola-coucil

This new type of canola contains high levels of oleic acid, a monounsaturated fat. According to health nutritionists, monounsaturated fats are considered “good” fats compared with saturated fats found in beef, pork, hard cheeses, and other dairy products. Oil processed from these varieties is similar to that of peanut and olive oils.
