  • The way palm oil is produced is hurting people, the air we breathe and wildlife.
    However, it's used in many foods - sometimes in large quantities - and in fact, it’s estimated to be in almost half of supermarket products.
    BBC Reel explores why this substance is so problematic.

    All forms of aggressive agriculture will naturally have an effect on ecology. Its price in supply has to do with its cheaper costs in land and cultivation, as well as strong demand. What alternative can there be without the same effects and consequences...? Yes, the extensive change in land use in Sumatra and Borneo has hurt the Orang Utan species, but pointing out palm oil as being 'bad' by WWF and such is not good enough, as there is no viable solution or alternative. They simply shout out who's or what's wrong but cannot provide any workable solution. Just hubris and noise.

    It's scary how we are being conned or mislead over the food we eat- we ate olive spread for years before realising it contains Palm oil. I suppose the best thing is to buy whole food as much as possible so you know what you're consuming.

      but the saddest thing is that when you're eating what the television and the media told you to. almost all oil sold on the market besides olive, coconut and palm oil are hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oil which increased the risk of cancer. those vegetable oils like corn oil, sunflower oil, rapeseed oil, soy oil and canola oil that people claim as "healthy oil" are all hydrogenated oils which contains trans fat which increases the risk of cancer. it's probably due to the process of adding chemicals such as bleach and deodorants to those oil. so yeah, the lobbyist put a lot of money into the pockets of politicians to keep you eating bleach and deodorants.

      Yes folks can in both foods, beauty products, and nonfood items
      Folks can stop buying all these beauty products that are toxic, that are at the demises of innocent animals and or at times people.
      The same for foods, stop eating the junk, especially the fast unhealthy foods, the genetically engineered foods, GMO, MSG, dead blaming products, Slimes, Paraben (all the different & kinds of parabens that are disguised or renamed to fool folks), foods, the foods folks quick to gravitates toward because it tastes and smells good.
      Doesn't folks educate themselves, rather listening to what gov agency's, manufacturers, farmer's who are taking the short cut in production of plastic, chemical induced animals and foods that are damaging the body's cells and organs, moreso from the inside out.
      Educate and educating the mindset of what to, ask questions, make wise decisions for self, for health ...

      pretty much all the other types of oil sold on the market are hydrogenated oils besides palm oil, coconut and olive oil. if you like to eat bleach and deodorant that much then sure, go eat those vegetable oil like soy, sunflower, rapeseed, corn or canola oil. they added bleach and deodorants to those oils and they also have more trans fat which would cause cancer. go and eat what the lobbyist told you to.

      We knew the formula all along: olein and stearin. The problem is how to mass-produce olein (i.e. precursor of cooking oil) from other sources. What do you expect? Fischer-Tropsch reaction? No, too hard. Fossil oil cracking? Irrelevant.

    Dear BBC News Reel,
    -Nutella was supposed to be off the market in the USA. It's nasty. Never cared for it.
    -Makeup is not advertised as much and too expensive anyway. Natural is best.
    -Oreo cookies taste like a vat of fat, never liked them.
    When I cook, I use extra virgin olive oil.
    Jobs? There are tons folks can do sans raping wildlife.
    Sad. 😞
    Thank you for posting.

      Nutella is still on the shelves, like other foods
      Cosmetics are becoming easy to manufacturer and these celebrities are cashing in on toxicity and the rest of society, mainly young teenagers, young adults and some older adults are part taking in the demises of spreading toxic chemicals on innocent people lives.
      If you have to wear makeup, wear natural and research whether the products are naturally plant based and no additives are in it, rather because it is the in and popular and folks on media outlets platforms say so when it is not about your health wellbeing, but how fat their pockets are lined, to cash in on your demises.
      Same goes for the pharmaceutical industry, doctor's, and other agency's who lies
      Thank goodness I am not a partaker of any unhealthy foods and products. I am all natural vegan and cosmetics free

    What about the bad health effects of Palm oil? In our country coconut oil is sold cheap by mixing with Palm oil. That's why along with genetic susceptibility ischaemic heart disease risk & incidence is climbing in South Asia. Along with coconut oil, milk powder imported from news Zealand was found to have Palm oil as a constituent.

  • @idndyzgaming

    The thing is, if we're gonna switch to other types of oil, we'll have to make sure that the alternatives are better than palm oil especially productivity-wise. We don't wanna see more land getting hurt because of the switch. To disable oil completely... is a shambolic proposition. That's a disgrace to many cultures around the world.
    Also, to make some notes, palm in general actually has a lot of uses: olein, stearin, fruit bunch, PFAD (distillate), and POME (mill effluent). Olein and stearin, beside of cooking oil, are important and can support biodiesel because of C18 content. The last three are actually wastes but we can expect to create many practical things with them such as fertilizer, soap, and biogas respectively.
