Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Corn Oil

  • Metabolic Effect: It is high in unsaturated fats, which can help balance cholesterol levels. However, excessive consumption can lead to weight gain and increase insulin resistance.
  • Consumption Recommendation: It can be used in salad dressings or for cooking. However, avoid prolonged cooking at high temperatures. It is recommended to use it alternately with other healthy oils such as olive oil.
  • Things to Consider: Due to its high calorie content, portion control should be observed. It should be consumed carefully, especially by those who want to lose weight. A tablespoon contains approximately 90 calories.
  • Exercise Equivalent: The calories in a tablespoon of corn oil can be burned with approximately 15 minutes of moderate-paced walking. Alternatively, a 7-minute brisk run can be done to burn these calories.
