As the saying goes, “Food is the most important thing for people.” Explain that diet is very important for people. Oil is one of the essential substances in people's daily diet.
Fry, stir-fry, cooking and frying, all of which require the participation of oil substances. In other words, choosing to eat healthy oil is the key to ensuring people's health.
Gutter oil incident that occurred in the past few years now still makes people feel scared, especially now that people's living standards are improving, and they are paying more and more attention to dietary health, and the quality of edible oil has also become the top priority for people to pay attention to.
The soybean oil circulated on the Internet is very harmful and is produced with rough chemical solvents. It is more dangerous than sugar. Is it real? Which oils are unhealthy? Do you want to eat less or not?

U.S. Research: Soybean oil is the most unhealthy oil
The saying "soybean oil is the most unhealthy" comes from an animal study in the United States. The study designed three groups of controls to study the effects of soybean oil, fructose and coconut oil on obesity and other complications in mice.
According to the experimental results, the researchers concluded that compared with coconut oil and fructose, soybean oil is more likely to cause mice to gain weight and suffer from diabetes , which has a greater potential impact on the liver. As soon as the research was found, Dr. Joseph, the "famous doctor" in the United States, began to call on the public to stop eating soybean oil.
But is this conclusion really accurate?
During the experiment, the researchers' records were contradictory. In the paper, there was no significant difference in the amount of rat food in the four experimental groups, but the accompanying data table showed that the mice in the soybean oil experimental group consumed 1 times more. This indirectly reflects the unreasonable experimental design and has a great impact on the results.
Later this experiment was revealed by the scientific community that all experimental data were designed "cleverly", so the conclusions were also designed, so the conclusions could not be applied to our normal diet.

Is eating soybean oil good for the body?
Soybean oil is a cooking oil extracted from soybeans. The high-quality soybean oil is light yellow and clear and transparent, without precipitates and no bean smell. Cooking dishes with soybean oil can enhance the color, aroma, taste and shape of the food.
Adjust amount of soybean oil will also bring these benefits to the body:
, lowering cholesterol
Soybean oil contains linoleic acid, oleic acid , linolenic acid and other unsaturated fatty acids, which can promote the decomposition and excretion of cholesterol, avoid the deposition of cholesterol in the body, and thus improve blood circulation.
, brain-enhancing and intelligence
Soybean oil contains legume phospholipids, which can promote the growth and development of nerves, blood vessels, and brain. It is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, can cross the blood-brain barrier, increase the activity of brain cells, and enhance memory.
, Intestinal moistening and laxative
Soybean oil contains a large amount of lecithin , which can play a certain digestive role and achieve a certain intestinal moistening and laxative effect, which may be of some help for constipation and intestinal obstruction.
. Prevent tumors
Soybean oil does not contain aflatoxin and cholesterol, and has a protective effect on the body. The bean phospholipids in soybean oil are beneficial to the development of nerves, blood vessels and brain.

Doctor reminds: for these two types of oil, try to eat less
. Lard
In the memories of many older generations, there is still the figure of lard. As the name suggests, lard is the oil extracted from pork fat. I believe many people think that lard is particularly fragrant.
However, most of the fat in lard is saturated fatty acids, which are not easily absorbed by the human body and are even less likely to be metabolized by the human body, so it is more likely to cause obesity problems.
In addition, lard also contains a lot of cholesterol. Eating lard for a long time is prone to heart disease. In addition, lard will combine the body's sugar during digestion, causing the sugar not only to stay for too long but also increase the risk of suffering from the three highs.
. Self-pressing oil
Self-pressing oil is a food oil extracted by using grains grown by oneself or peanuts and soybeans purchased on the market. This food oil is also called crude oil, crude oil, and crude oil.
This oil does not pass the refining process during the extraction process, which may cause the edible oil to contain pesticide residues and heavy metal element . During the storage process, the edible oil will deteriorate and increase the body's risk of cancer.
And moldy raw materials are likely to be mixed into the raw materials used for self-extrusion oil. Those peanuts, corn and other aflatoxin likes to be contaminated crops, which are more likely to promote the growth of aflatoxin.

Four precautions for healthy eating oil
. Control the intake
Now people's living standards have improved. When cooking, they like to add more oil, so that the dishes taste more fragrant. But this approach is wrong.
Because a large amount of oil is consumed into the body, it will have a great impact on the cardiovascular system and induce some cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, for the sake of the health of yourself and your family, you should pay attention to controlling the amount. Generally, the amount per person consumes about 25 grams to 30 grams per day is most appropriate.
. You cannot eat only one edible oil
Long-term consumption of a single variety of plant-based edible oil or animal-based edible oil. This practice is wrong. The content of vitamins and essential fatty acids in animal edible oils is significantly higher than that in plant edible oils.
If you only eat plant-based cooking oil, it will greatly reduce its intake of vitamins and essential fatty acids, thereby affecting its health. However, animal edible oil has a high fat content, and eating lard may induce "rich disease".
. Sealed and kept from light
edible oil is easily oxidized when sunlight is in contact with air. oxidation product is harmful to the human body. Therefore, oil storage should be kept from light and sealed.
avoids natural light and fluorescent light rays. It can be placed in a closed cabinet . The oil pot needs to have a lid. If there are few family members, it is recommended to buy small buckets of cooking oil to prevent storage time from affecting the nutrition of the oil.
. Do not have too high oil temperature
Because stir-frying with high-temperature oil will not only destroy the nutrients in the food, but will also produce some peroxide and carcinogens during the hot stir-frying process. People eat such dishes will affect their health.
Therefore, experts recommend that people should heat the pot first when cooking, then pour in cooking oil and start cooking immediately, so that the fried dishes are beneficial to human health.
