I thought desi ghee is better for daily use than any oil be it olive or other refined oil. Is not it?

Anything in limit is good! if you are not overweight or heart patient then go for desi ghee but should avoid deep fried food in ghee! Also type of oil depends on the type of cooikng you do. Olive oil should not be used for deep frying. It works best if used as a sald dressing.

Desi Ghee has Saturated Fatty Acids (SFA). Olive is (MUFA) and most of other refined oils have PUFA. For a normal person following todays sedentary lifestyle, should have about 6 teaspoons of oils. Total per day. In that you can have 3 PUFA. 2 MUFA. 1 SFA. This ration can be varied. The other thing to understand is that every food is good till the time it is within daily calorie limits and is balanced between Fats: Carbs:Protiens. Anything extra is bad. So to say that >> 'Ghee is Good/Better' << is an incomplete statement. For a wrestler or Olympic swimmer. 20 spoons per day may be good. But for an office worker. 20 spoons per day will lead to obesity and cholesterol / cardiac issues. Bottomline is that - nutrition items are always to be seen in a context.
