What it is

Palmolein oil is a fraction of palm oil, which comes from the fruit of oil palm trees. It is the liquid part of palm oil, separated by heating and cooling. This process yields a stable oil rich in unsaturated fats.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use palmolein oil as a cooking oil and as an ingredient in processed foods. Its stability and neutral flavor make it suitable for frying and baking. It is often found in snack foods, baked goods, and ready-to-eat meals.

Health notes

Palmolein oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of fat, including saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. Like other fats, excessive intake can contribute to increased calorie consumption. JECFA has evaluated palm oil and its fractions, and has established specifications for its identity and quality.

Allergen info

Palmolein oil is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
