Non-gmo Sunflower Oil Non-gmo Canola Oil

Sunflower oil is extracted from sunflower seeds, and canola oil is extracted from rapeseed. Both are common vegetable oils used in cooking and food manufacturing. They are typically refined to remove impurities and create a neutral flavor.

These oils are used as cooking oils and as ingredients in a wide variety of processed foods. They provide a source of fat, improve texture, and help carry flavors. They are found in baked goods, snacks, salad dressings, and fried foods.

Sunflower oil and canola oil are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. They are primarily composed of unsaturated fats, including monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. Both oils have been evaluated by regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA. While generally considered healthy fats when consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, some discussions exist regarding the processing methods and potential health effects of highly refined oils.
