What it is
Non-GMO palm oil is a vegetable oil that comes from the fruit of oil palm trees. It is extracted from the flesh of the palm fruit. The 'non-GMO' label means the oil was produced from palm trees that have not been genetically modified.
Why it's used
Palm oil is used in many processed foods because it is semi-solid at room temperature, which helps improve texture and consistency. It can act as a preservative, preventing spoilage and extending shelf life. It is commonly found in baked goods, chocolate, and processed snacks.
Health notes
Palm oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of saturated fat, and some research suggests high intake of saturated fat may affect blood cholesterol levels. The WHO has noted that diets high in saturated fats can increase the risk of heart disease. JECFA has evaluated palm oil and its derivatives.
Allergen info
Palm oil is not one of the 9 major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
