Healthiest Oil - Soybean Oil Nutrition: High in
Polyunstaurated & Monounsaturated Fats

Soybean oil is one of the healthiest oils and here's why: it's really high in polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats and those are the good unsaturated oils that are actually protective against things like cardiovascular disease … and it's also relatively low in things like saturated fat and in its liquid natural form it's also free of trans fats, so it's very high in those good protective kinds of oils and low in what we would call the bad oils or the saturated fat.

Many people are surprised that you can find soybean oil in a lot of the products that probably you already have in your pantry. So, if you were to look at your vegetable oil for example, it would be really likely that on the ingredient list you would see soybean oil … and the same goes for a lot of the dressings that you probably have in your refrigerator. Those also would be soybean oil based in many cases.

One of the things that makes soybean oils so versatile is that it just has a very neutral flavor so it doesn't mask the flavors of other kinds of ingredients that you might be trying the highlight or showcase, so it's a great oil for doing stir frying where you have lots of ingredients that you want to showcase. Not only is soybean oil one of the healthiest oils, but it is also inexpensive so it allows you to eat healthfully on a budget."
