No, and it is depends on vegetable oil is used, vary considerably the type of fat. Palm oil contains more vitamin E, as vegetable oils contain more vitamin K, monounsaturated fat, and polyunsaturated fat. Palm oil offers 50% saturated fat, however vegetable oils, such as olive oil, contain only 14% of saturated fat. Palm oil is classified as unhealthy due to the presence of palmitic acid, the major saturated fat found in palm oil. It will cause a rise in "bad" LDL cholesterol as well as big LDL particles. Other vegetable oils have 14.7367g less saturated fat than palm oil, which has 49.3g. However, the amount of vitamin E in palm oil (15.94mg) and vegetables (14.78mg) is not significantly different. Vegetable oil, with 48.033mg of monosaturated fat and 33.033g of polyunsaturated fat, has a higher monosaturated fat content than palm oil, which has 9.3 g.

Yes. Because palm oil is free from trans fat which are obviously known unhealthy. Vegetables oil in other case, such as soybean and sunflower is liquid in room temperature. But, to be used in food products, this vegetable oil has to go through an industrial  process called hydrogenation that turn it to a semi-solid. This process create trans fat that can be linked to cardiovascular disease.

Is palm oil healthier than other vegetable oils? If so, why?
No, since palm oil includes a high percentage of saturated fat (40–50% of total fat), the most of which is in the form of palmitic acid.
Palm oil includes monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, both of which are recognised to be healthy. It also includes saturated fat, which has been related to heart disease.
Palm oil does not contain trans fat, but it is heavy in saturated fat, which can raise bad cholesterol and increase the risk of heart disease.
Palm oil is better for you than other culinary fats and oils, but it isn't as good as vegetable oils like olive oil and canola oil.

Is palm oil healthier than other vegetable oils? If so, why? Please justify your answer.

It depends. Palm oil does contain saturated fatty acids which is considered unhealthy compared to some vegetable oils such as olive oil and sunflower oil. Presence of saturated fatty acids raises the unwanted Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol level. Despite that, study shows that if consuming palm oil as a part of balanced diet, it will not cause much health risk.

On the other hand, palm oil also contains unsaturated fatty acids which is beneficial to health. Besides, palm oil is free from cholesterol and trans fat that could cause cardiovascular diseases. It is free from trans fat due to its chemical and physical properties that prevent it from undergoing industrial hydrogenation process which creates trans fat.

No, because in humans, consumption of palm oil results in higher LDL cholesterol than low saturated fat vegetable oils and higher HDL cholesterol than trans fat-containing oils. The effects of palm oil on blood lipids are as expected due to its high saturated fat content. This argues for reducing the use of palm oil with vegetable oils low in saturated and trans fatty acids.

No, palm oil is less health than other vegetable oils because it has composition of roughly equal parts of saturated fat and unsaturated fat- 50% saturated fatty acids, 40% monounsaturated fatty acids, and 10% polyunsaturated fatty acids. Palm oil has higher contents of saturated fat compared to other liquid oils, for example olive oil contains less than half of saturated fat in palm oil. The high saturated content in palm oil can increases cholesterol levels and this leads to harmful disease like cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis and obesity. In addition to that, oxidized palm oil can also increase health risks, in which the oxidization occurs during the process of culinary use, generating toxins that adversely affect the heart, lungs, liver, and kidneys. Tocotrienol levels in fresh and aged palm oil have a slight different. Hence, reheating palm oil may lose the benefits of fresh palm oil and it increase risk of heart disease like atherosclerosis.

NO. Compared to other fats and oils, palm oil has average levels of saturated fats. A recent meta-analysis on the effect of substituting palm oil with other fats and oils on validated biomarkers of heart disease, showed that substituting palm oil by other fats resulted in a mix of favorable and unfavorable changes in markers of CHD and CVD. Clear favorable changes occurred when palm oil replaced trans fatty acids.

it is partially because palm oil can be better than vegetable oil and it can also be less healthier. Palm oil includes monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, both of which are recognized to be healthy. Palm oil contains a high concentration of antioxidants and is regarded to be advantageous to diabetes patients because its component antioxidants protect the body from cellular damage caused by oxidative stress.
palm oil can be said less healthy than vegetable oil because it contain a higher saturated fat than vegetable oil which can  increases LDL and at the same time clog the arteries.

# data[].attributes.body
Palm oil is high in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, both of which are recognised to be healthy. Based on previous research, palm oil contains the high level of saturated fat that could be dangerous for cardiovascular health. Meanwhile, vegetable oils low in saturated fat. However, palm oil can reduce cholesterol level. Palm oil's saturated fat appeared to have the same effect on LDL cholesterol as animal fat. This was also reflected in palm oil's considerable increase in LDL cholesterol when compared to low-saturated-fat vegetable oils. In my opinion, palm oil is less healthier than other vegetable oil.

# data[].attributes.body
No. Palm oil may not be a home kitchen staple like olive oil or canola oil. Palm oil consumption results in higher LDL cholesterol than do vegetable oils low in saturated fat and higher HDL cholesterol than do trans fat–containing oils in humans. The effects of palm oil on blood lipids are as expected on the basis of its high saturated fat content, which supports the reduction in palm oil use by replacement with vegetable oils low in saturated and trans fat.

# data[].attributes.body
No, palm oil is not healthy because it has a high content of saturated fat compared to vegetable oils that contain a low content of saturated fat. In addition, excessive intake of palm oil will also produce higher LDL cholesterol than vegetable oil. The high content of saturated fats and cholesterol can be harmful to health and can cause the risk of cardiovascular and heart disease.

# data[].attributes.body
NO because the palm oil is higher in LDL than vegetables oil which sometimes called as bad cholesterol, which can cause higher cholesterol risk than vegetables oils.

Partial. When compared to most other vegetable oils, palm oil contains a high amount of saturated fat; however, studies have found inconsistent effects of palm oil on blood lipids. When compared to vegetable oils low in saturated fat, it significantly increased LDL cholesterol by 0.24 mmol/L (95 percent CI: 0.13, 0.35 mmol/L; I2 = 83.2 percent). This effect was found in randomised trials (0.31 mmol/L; 95% CI: 0.20, 0.42 mmol/L) but not in nonrandomized trials (0.03 mmol/L; 95% CI: 0.15, 0.20 mmol/L; P-difference = 0.02). After controlling for the test oil dose and comparison oil type, only minor heterogeneity in study results remained (I2 = 27.5 percent) in randomised trials. Palm oil increased HDL cholesterol by 0.02 mmol/L (95 percent CI: 0.01, 0.04 mmol/L; I2 = 49.8 percent) compared to low saturated fat vegetable oils and by 0.09 mmol/L (95 percent CI: 0.06, 0.11 mmol/L; I2 = 47.8 percent) compared to trans-fat-containing oil. Palm oil consumption raises LDL cholesterol, and its effects on blood lipids are as expected given its high saturated fat content but depend on the individual body system.

Palm oil is less healthy than other vegetable oils. Palm oil has a high saturated fat content which is considered bad for cardiovascular health. Thus, high saturated fat could increase cholesterol levels. Eating meals containing palm oil regularly can increase levels of bad low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. However, palm oil is rich in vitamin E which as antioxidants also function in keeping our immune system healthy.

No, palm oil is less healthier than other vegetable oils. This is because, the amount of saturated fat in the palm oil is high compared to vegetable oils. High intake of saturated fat would clog arteries that might increase the risk of cardiac disease. Palm oil elevates LDL cholesterol higher than low-saturated-fat vegetable oils and HDL cholesterol higher than trans-fat–containing oils.

# data[].attributes.body
No. Palm oil is unhealthy compared to vegetable oil. But they will not harm our health if consumed as part of a well-balanced diet. Palm oil consumption raises LDL cholesterol more than low-saturated-fat vegetable oils and raises HDL cholesterol more than trans-fat–containing oils. Palm oil has a nutritional profile similar to other cooking oils, though the fat content varies. Palm oil contains more saturated fat than olive oil but less than coconut oil and other tropical oils. However, in terms of cholesterol, sugar, minerals, and vitamins, both oils have nearly the same value.

# data[].attributes.body
No, as palm oil consumption leads in greater LDL cholesterol than low-saturated-fat vegetable oils and higher HDL cholesterol than trans-fat–containing oils. The effects of palm oil on blood lipids are as expected given its high saturated fat content, which promotes the use of vegetable oils low in saturated and trans fat to substitute palm oil.

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) aids in the removal of excess cholesterol from the body, making it less likely for it to clog your arteries. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is known as "bad cholesterol" because it transports cholesterol to your arteries, where it can build up in the walls of the arteries. Atherosclerosis is a buildup of plaque in the arteries caused by too much cholesterol.

As per my understanding plam oil is not healthier compared to vegetable oil . Because palm oil contains saturated fats which will cause health problem if a person consume more then needed. Where else vegetable oil contains unsaturated fats which is better comparing to saturated fats. Hence, saturated fats will increase the LDH level in a person’s body which will lead to disease such as heart attack. In general unsaturated fats are healthier compare to saturated fats

NURUL NAZIHAH BINTI BAHARUDDIN (F19A0170) Palm oil is high in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, both of which are good for health. However, palm oil on the other hand is not healthier than other vegetables oils because it includes more saturated fat, roughly the same amount as butter. Also in humans, palm oil consumption leads in greater LDL cholesterol than low-saturated-fat vegetable oils and higher HDL cholesterol than trans-fat–containing oils.

Taking palm oil has lower saturated fats than trans fat and higher LDL cholesterol levels than vegetable oils, which are high in HDL cholesterol. Since palm oil is high in saturated fat, it is possible to reduce the amount of vegetable oil used by replacing it with vegetable oil low in saturated fat and trans fat. It can be expected to affect blood lipids.

1)  Is palm oil healthier than other vegetable oils? If so, why?

Yes, palm oil healthier than other vegetable oils due to palm oil can lower the cholesterol, free from trans fat, can be used for weight loss and increasing the body's metabolism. Palm oil contains monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which are good for health and palm oil also contains saturated fats, which are often associated with cardiovascular -related problems. However, research has proven that palm oil does not pose any additional risk of leading to cardiovascular disease when consumed because it is considered part of a balanced diet. In addition, palm oil is also free of cholesterol and waxy substances that are at risk for heart disease. In fact there is strong evidence to suggest that a diet containing palm oil can actually minimize cholesterol levels in an individual. In a 2015 clinical trial published in the journal Food and Function, it was stated that the use of both palm oil and olive oil was effective in reducing cholesterol levels by 15 percent. Palm oil is also free of trans fats, which are generally known to be unhealthy for an individual’s body. Vegetable oils such as soybean and sunflower are liquid at room temperature and need to go through an industrial process known as hydrogenation to convert them to semi -solids where producing trans fats are known to be associated with cardiovascular disease while palm oil is naturally semi -solid at room temperature and no need to be hydrogenated. Therefore, it does not contain trans fats. This is evidenced when there is a journal called The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition which says that replacing trans fats with palm oil can reduce heart disease risk markers and improve blood lipids.

No. Palm oil is unhealthier compared to the vegetable oil. It's because of the saturated fat in palm oil seemed to have the same effects on low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol as that in animal fat in comparison to the vegetable oil that have low saturated fat. High levels of LDL cholesterol would increase the risk for cardiovascular diseases. However, in terms for the other part such as less cholesterol, less sugar, high in minerals and high in vitamins, both oil got almost the same value.
