What it is
Alpina oil is a type of vegetable oil derived from the seeds of the Alpina plant, a species native to Southeast Asia. The seeds are typically pressed to extract the oil, which is then refined for use in food products. It is known for its neutral flavor and light color.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use Alpina oil as a fat source and emulsifier in various food products. Its neutral taste makes it suitable for infant formulas and other products where a distinct flavor is not desired. It is commonly found in baby foods, milk additives, and creamers.
Health notes
Alpina oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of fatty acids, which are essential nutrients. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated vegetable oils, and they are considered safe when consumed as part of a balanced diet. No significant health controversies are associated with its typical use.
Allergen info
Alpina oil is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It is also gluten-free.
