Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.
