Soybean Oil - How Many Calories?

Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Soybean Oil

• Metabolic Effect: Soybean oil is high in unsaturated fats, especially rich in omega-6 fatty acids. These fats provide energy for the body and contribute to the production of certain hormones. However, excessive consumption can lead to inflammation.
• Consumption Recommendation: You can use soybean oil when cooking your meals or adding it as a dressing to your salads. However, prolonged cooking at high temperatures can damage the structure of the oil, so be careful to use it at medium heat. It may be beneficial to use it alternately with other healthy oils such as olive oil.
• Things to Consider: Soybean oil is a high-calorie oil, so it is important to pay attention to portion control. One tablespoon of soybean oil contains approximately 90 calories. Excessive consumption can cause weight gain.
• Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from one tablespoon of soybean oil (approximately 90 calories), you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 12 minutes. Alternatively, a brisk 8-minute run can have the same effect.
