My ped told me that refined nut oils have had the proteins removed and are fine to use. You might want to check with your doc. |
Refined nut oils, if they're pure and well made, have had the proteins removed and SHOULD be fine to use. My allergist doesn't recommend it because most oils are not that pure and it's not worth the risk, in his opinion. (Having had an allergic reaction to deep-fried french fries once, I can only conclude it was contaminated oil and that he knows what he's talking about.)

Safflower oil has a bit of a higher smoke point although they are very comparitable, also has more vitamin E. Canola oil is genetically modified. I think safflower oil is more expensive.
