What it is
Sunflower oil is a vegetable oil extracted from sunflower seeds. Palm oil is derived from the fruit of oil palm trees. Both are commonly used vegetable oils in food production.
Why it's used
These oils are used as cooking oils and as ingredients in a wide variety of processed foods. They provide texture, mouthfeel, and help to carry flavors. They are often found in baked goods, snacks, and fried products.
Health notes
Sunflower oil and palm oil are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Both are sources of fat, and like all fats, should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated these oils. While some research explores the health effects of different types of fats, typical consumption levels in foods are not associated with adverse health outcomes.
