Contains One Or More Of Soybean Oil

Soybean oil is a vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of the soybean plant. It is one of the most widely used cooking oils in the United States. The oil is typically refined, bleached, and deodorized before being used in food products.

Soybean oil is used as a cooking oil and as an ingredient in many processed foods. It can act as a carrier for flavors, an emulsifier to help mix ingredients, and a preservative to extend shelf life. It is commonly found in salad dressings, baked goods, margarine, and fried foods.

Soybean oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, which are considered healthier fats when consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated soybean oil. Research on the health effects of soybean oil consumption is ongoing, with some studies suggesting benefits and others raising questions about its impact on inflammation and hormone balance, particularly when highly processed or consumed in large amounts.
