2. lard
Lard contains linoleic acid, oleic acid and saturated fatty acid. Because of its high proportion of saturated fatty acids, it is called saturated edible oil, similar to butter and butter. Because lard has high saturation, good heat resistance and less oxidative polymerization after long-term heating, it is usually used to process cakes and fried foods. Because animal oil contains too much cholesterol, it is not suitable for patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

It is rich in vitamin E, lecithin and phospholipids, which has certain health care function and can resist oxidation. However, linoleic acid and linolenic acid are not heat-resistant, and these oils are prone to oxidative polymerization after repeated heating or frying, which affects health.
4. Olive oil
Olive oil contains a lot of unsaturated fatty acids, especially monounsaturated fatty acids, which can reduce blood lipid, have anticoagulant effect and prevent the formation of atherosclerotic plaques.
