[Hidden]

Can anyone post what this oil contains?

Cannot find it on net..

Just curious to know

[Devine]

Good oils are,coconut,mustard,rice bran,sunflower and of course olive oil.

[Hidden in reply to Devine]

Only coconut oil is the best.

Next comes mustard and sesame cold pressed oil

Maybe also cold pressed ground oil.

But not sunflower certainly.

Maybe a bit of rice bran.

[RNKapur in reply to Hidden]

So this makes fortune diabetes oil good right? I mean it has both Rice bran and sesame and both are good. So the whole oil will be good right?

[Hidden in reply to RNKapur]

No idea

Don't know how refined they are. What's added

Above sequence is ok when it's cold pressed

[Hidden]

groundnut and sesame oil are good.It is` advvsable to avoid all refined oils.

[Harish2068]

Virgin Coconut oil is the Best. All refined oils are bad for health. Then come cold pressed sesame oil, the next best one. Virgin Olive oil is best of shallow fry. Rice Bran may be allergic to few people. Even Physically refined also too bad for health. Most of the oil companies gives an illusion & wrong impression that "Physically Refined Rice Bran Oil" is the best oil for Health. Any kind of oil should be consumed in moderation.

How Rice Bran oil can be found in cold pressed method, is it possible ?

[Ramisb]

looks to me a marketing gimmick than anything else

[shadwal32]

No doubt coconut oil is the best choice, the next is mustard oil. Refined oils are poisons for all, diabetic or non diabetic. In the process of refining omega 3 acids are lost and harmful omega 6 are left behind.

There is nothing that cures diabetes, the only cure is a Pancreas transplant. As far as cooking oil is concerned for a good health in general use "Virgin Olive Oil".

This is money making story. Don't go it.

[yasin]

only to fool public

While buying cooking oil, always look for the quantities of Trans and saturated fat. The lower it is, the better the oil. If added nutrients are present in the cooking oil such as Anti-oxidants, Vitamin A, D, E etc, the amount of PUFA and MUFA present etc.

As a nutritionist I have studied the ingredients and the claims closely and no where does it say that it cures diabetes. It says that it helps manage blood sugar levels. That means that you can use it in your everyday cooking and your regular diabetes diet instead of regular oils.

Who here has tried fortune Vivo diabetes oil? What are the reviews? Does it work or is it just marketing claims?

[neha1987 in reply to Naresh559]

It is very nice! Boon for diabetics. I have been using for my family ever since I saw It in my local store. I monitor blood sugar regularly and there have been no major spikes for me, in fact it is slightly lesser. I don’t have a very active lifestyle like many diabetics and I love to eat. I walk in moderation and try to add more fibre in food. With this oil i feel like managing diabetes is effortless easier.

I haven't used it but I have heard from a lot of people that it helps. Not if you eat fried food everyday of course. But it helps with regular food and is better than regular oil for cooking.

[Rohan12 in reply to Roopar]

I have tried it for frying also and its good. Sometimes fried food can be eaten in small portions. I try to cook most things without oil but some Indian cooking like bhindi and karela require a little bit of pan frying.I 've tried using fortune Vivo oil with karela and sweet potato and I liked it.
