Summary

BetterBody Foods Refined Avocado Oil scores 73/100. A refined, neutral-flavor avocado oil built for everyday high-heat cooking, sold in a plastic bottle. Independent testing (Mamavation) measured 1,331 ppb of total phthalates — a low, sub-MADL load. Refining trades a little of the raw oil's polyphenols for a higher smoke point, but the monounsaturated fat profile stays heart-healthy. As with every avocado oil, some plasticizer contamination from packaging is unavoidable.

Contaminants 1

Source: Mamavation

Phthalates (total)
1,331 ppb
Low

A low phthalate load. Phthalates are plasticizers that migrate from packaging and processing equipment — no avocado oil on the market is fully free of them. At this level, per-serving exposure sits well below the Prop 65 DEHP maximum allowable dose of 410 µg/day.

Mamavation avocado oil phthalate testing: total phthalates measured at 1,331 ppb (µg/kg) — about 19 µg per tablespoon, versus the Prop 65 DEHP maximum allowable dose of 410 µg/day.

Avocado oil
Very Good

High in monounsaturated fat (oleic acid), heat-stable, and minimally processed — an excellent cooking oil on its own. Independent lab testing did detect phthalate plasticizers (see lab results), which migrate from packaging and processing rather than coming from the oil itself.
