Soybean Oil

How we reached this

Linoleic-acid dominant (~50% omega-6) — the highest omega-6 fraction among the common commodity oils, and the basis of the dietary concern about seed oils. FDA permits a qualified health claim for replacing saturated fat with soybean oil, so the regulator's position and ours differ here and both are shown: the claim addresses saturated-fat substitution, not omega-6 load or oxidative stability. US supply is overwhelmingly conventional GMO, solvent-extracted and RBD-refined.
