Oil and butter are versatile fats commonly used in cooking and baking across various cuisines worldwide. Butter, derived from milk, primarily contains saturated fats, along with vitamins A and D. It’s a staple in European cooking and adds richness to dishes. Oil, typically plant-based, such as olive, coconut, or canola oil, is often used in Mediterranean, Asian, and global recipes. Its fat composition varies; some oils, like olive oil, are high in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while others may include saturated or polyunsaturated fats. Both oil and butter contribute flavor and texture to foods but should be consumed in moderation. Excessive use of saturated fats (found in butter and some oils) may contribute to health risks like high cholesterol. Healthier options include oils rich in unsaturated fats, which support cardiovascular health. Balancing appropriate types and quantities is key to incorporating them into a nutritious diet.
