SOYBEAN OIL is a Natural Refined Vegetable
Oil with a high content of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids.
The major unsaturated fatty acids in REFINED SOYBEAN
OIL triglycerides are 7% linolenic acid (C18:3); 51%
linoleic acid (C-18:2); and 23% oleic acid(C-18:1). It also contains the
saturated fatty acids stearic acid (4%) and 10% palmitic acid (10%).
SOYBEAN OIL is also rich in lecithin, sterolins, and vitamin E. Lecithin is needed
by every cell in the body and is a key building block of cell membranes. Lecithin
protects cells from oxidation and largely comprises the protective sheaths
surrounding the brain. It is composed mostly of B vitamins, phosphoric acid,
choline, linoleic acid and inositol

Soybean Oil
Soybean oil is a vegetable oil that’s extracted from the seeds of the soybean plant.
It’s also incredibly versatile and can be used in a variety of cooking methods, including:
frying
baking
roasting
Soybean oil has a relatively high smoke point, which makes it a good option for high-heat cooking. It mostly consists of polyunsaturated fats, which are linked to lower cholesterol levels and a reduced risk of heart disease.
Soybean oil is rich in vitamin K, which may help maintain bone strength and reduce the risk of fractures. One animal study also found that the oil may help prevent bone loss. It contains omega-3 fatty acids, which play a key role in promoting health and preventing chronic disease.
Soybean oil is rich in vitamin E, a nutrient that can help promote skin health. Applying it topically may protect against inflammation and help the skin retain moisture. It can also be applied to the hair and skin or combined with essential oils
