the claim

Palm oil raises LDL cholesterol more than unsaturated vegetable oils do.

the verdict
CONTESTED PARTIAL
Recorded sources
2 sources for · 2 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that palm oil raises LDL cholesterol more than unsaturated vegetable oils do?

Partly. Evidence is mixed and only partial: one review reports that palm olein and monounsaturated oils produce similar LDL effects, and a 1992 review says palm oil raises plasma cholesterol only with excess dietary cholesterol, while a brief review and a textbook chart indicate palm oil's saturated fats raise LDL cholesterol more than unsaturated oils.
