What it is

Soy and coconut oils are fats extracted from soybeans and coconuts, respectively. Soy oil is made by crushing soybeans and extracting the oil, often using solvents. Coconut oil is typically extracted from the flesh of mature coconuts through pressing or solvent extraction.

Why it's used

These oils are used as cooking oils and as ingredients in processed foods. They provide richness, improve texture, and act as emulsifiers, helping to blend ingredients like oil and water. They are commonly found in baked goods, ice cream, and snack foods.

Health notes

Soy oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. Coconut oil is also considered GRAS. Both oils are sources of fat. While some research suggests potential benefits of unsaturated fats found in soy oil, coconut oil is high in saturated fat. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated fats and oils. Evidence on the health effects of different types of dietary fats is ongoing and sometimes debated.

Allergen info

Soy oil is derived from soy, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Coconut oil is not derived from any of the major allergens.
