What it is
Soybean oil is a vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of the soybean plant. It is one of the most widely used cooking oils in the United States. The oil is typically refined, bleached, and deodorized before being used in food products.
Why it's used
Soybean oil is used as a cooking oil and as an ingredient in many processed foods. It acts as a source of fat, an emulsifier to help mix ingredients, and a carrier for flavors. It is commonly found in salad dressings, baked goods, margarines, and fried foods.
Health notes
Soybean oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, which are considered healthier fat profiles than saturated fats. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated soybean oil. Some research suggests that diets high in polyunsaturated fats may have benefits for heart health, while other studies show mixed results regarding overall health impacts.
Allergen info
Soybean oil is derived from soybeans, which are one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. However, highly refined soybean oil is often considered non-allergenic because the protein responsible for allergic reactions is typically removed during processing. Consumers with severe soy allergies should consult with their doctor.
