Benin: Why ANAN recommends limiting Zomi oil

The National Agency for Food and Nutrition (ANAN) in Benin recommends limiting the consumption of Zomi oil due to its processing, which reduces nutritional elements. Professor Charles Sossa emphasizes the importance of varying vegetable oils, favoring natural red palm oil, which retains essential nutrients. ANAN advises using oils such as peanut oil, corn oil, and soybean oil for a balanced diet. The recommendation does not aim to ban Zomi oil but to prevent it from becoming the primary fat used.
