American Heart Association Finds Omega-6 Fatty Acids in Soybean Oil Are Heart-Healthy
Date:2/12/2009

ard, offers these helpful hints on inexpensive ways to enjoy soybean oil:

  • Replace 1/3 cup soybean oil per 1/2 cup solid fat in cake and soft cookie recipes
  • Stir-fry lean meats and vegetables in soybean oil
  • Infuse soybean oil with herbs and garlic and use for dipping bread and dressing pasta
  • Whisk together soybean oil and seasonings for home-made salad dressings, or purchase a commercial salad dressing that contains soybean oil
  • Look for pie crust recipes that call for liquid soybean oil

"The news that soybean oil may lower heart disease risk when replacing oils with higher levels of saturated fat is especially important," notes Lisa Kelly, RD, MPH, of the United Soybean Board. Ms. Kelly notes that "soybean oil innovations are helping the food industry reduce saturated and trans fat levels in many processed baked goods and snacks."

The advisory recommends Americans aim for 5 percent to 10 percent of their daily calories from omega-6 fatty acids. The recommended daily intake of omega-6s ranges from 12 grams to 22 grams depending on age, gender and physical activity. Most Americans get their daily requirement in the foods they consume, but do not need to reduce their intake; some Americans may actually need to increase their intake of omega-6s.

The United Soybean Board is comprised of 68 farmer-directors who oversee the investments of the soybean checkoff on behalf of all U.S. soybean farmers. For more information on the health benefits of soy and simple recipe suggestions to help add soy to your diet, please visit www.soyconnection.com.
