Health notes

Sunflower oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. As a non-hydrogenated oil, it does not contain artificial trans fats, which were largely removed from the food supply after partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs) were determined to no longer be GRAS by the FDA in 2018. It is high in unsaturated fats, which are generally considered healthier than saturated fats. JECFA has not set an acceptable daily intake for sunflower oil as it is a common food ingredient rather than a food additive.
