Food contains macro and micronutrients. Our bodies need a lot of macros, which include carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Along with this comes the matter of calories. Every moment we work, the body is burning calories. Micronutrients provide most of the calories. Oil contains calories. Carbohydrates are provided by rice.

There have been many studies about the oils we use. Now the question of which oil to eat and which not to eat is important. Now I am told that 'I don't eat oil, I only eat ghee'. Ghee also contains saturated fat.

It has a 20 percent 'profit'. That's why quantity becomes so important. Many people ask me what oil to use. Here quality also comes together. We are saying - eat this oil, don't eat that. But what to eat is a matter of your choice but how much is important. Even if you eat good oil, it will not do you any good if you eat too much. 

Our Nepali cooking style has more of a tendency to stick to it. Olive oil is considered good for this. I looked at a study. In that study, it is written that 500 ml of oil should be used in a month. How is this possible for us? So be careful what food you are cooking.  If you are having a

party, use refined oil. If eating salad, use olive oil. There are also those who use coconut oil. Eating deep fried foods every day can damage your heart. 

The method I have been using myself is 'rotation of oil'. I change the oil I am using every three months. Mustard oil is always there as we have been using mustard oil since childhood. Mustard oil contains an acid, which is not allowed to be used in America and Europe.

We have been using mustard oil here for a long time. The advantage of mustard oil is that it can be used for frying and frying. I used mustard for three months and then refined oil for another month. I use olive oil if I'm fat now, not healthy.
