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 oils in the United States, produced by crushing soybeans and then extracting the oil through mechanical pressing or solvent extraction.

Why it's used

Soybean oil is used as a cooking oil and as an ingredient in salad dressings, baked goods, and margarines. Its neutral flavor and versatility make it a common choice for food manufacturers.

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, including omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. JECFA has evaluated soybean oil and established an acceptable daily intake. Evidence on the health effects of soybean oil consumption is mixed, with some studies suggesting potential benefits and others raising concerns about its omega-6 content.

Allergen info

Soybean oil is derived from soybeans, which are one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. Therefore, individuals with a soy allergy should avoid products containing soybean oil.
