"The formula, though, had soybean oil in it, and Anju told the doctor that Priya was very reactive to soybean oil. "That's not possible," said the doctor. "People are allergic to proteins, not fats and oils. There's nothing in the literature about allergies to oils." "I don't care what the literature says," Anju replied. "She reacts to soybean oil." The doctor sighed, and began to give Anju the condescending Crazy Mom treatment." - Kenneth Bock, Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma, and Allergies: The Groundbreaking Program for the 4-A Disorders (Get the book.)

"The highest in omega-3s is canola oil, then soybean oil. The highest in monounsaturated fat is olive oil, followed by safflower and canola oil. So what do I do? Canola oil is also pretty high in vitamin E, so I use it for most of my baking and oven frying. I also use olive oil whenever I can for sauces, dressing, sauteing, bread dips, etc. COMPARISON OF COMMON COOKING FATS TYPE OF FAT (1 TBSP) TYPE OF FATTY ACID SATURATED MONOUNSATURATED POLYUNSATURATED OMEGA-3 OMEGA Canola oil 7% 59% 29% 9% 20% Soybean oil 15% 23." - Elaine Magee, Food Synergy: Unleash Hundreds of Powerful Healing Food Combinations to Fight Disease and Live Well (Get the book.)

"It is found in plant oils such as wheat germ oil, cottonseed oil, and soybean oil. Beta-sitosterol is the dominant phytosterol found in garlic and onions. Herbal sources include licorice root, saw palmetto, and red clover. Stigmasterol is closely related to beta-sitosterol. soybean oil is an important source of stigmasterol and is a better source for laboratory synthesis of progesterone than is beta-sitosterol. Some herbal sources include burdock, fennel, licorice, alfalfa, anise, and sage." - Tori Hudson, N.D., Women's Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine: Alternative Therapies and Integrative Medicine for Total Health and Wellness (Get the book.)

"In a 3-week study, intensive care patients were given either soybean oil, a 50-50 combination of soybean oil and MCTs, or a "cocktail" that consisted of 50 percent soybean oil, 42.5 percent MCTs, and 7.5 percent black currant oil.12 The patients who were given the soybean oil-MCTs combination had much higher levels of EFAs in their bodies than did those taking soybean oil alone. MCTs have been reputed to provide a quick source of energy, which is why the supplements have become popular among some athletes. However, the research on performance enhancement using MCTs is not convincing." - Jonathan Goodman ND, The Omega Solution: Unleash the Amazing, Scientifically Based Healing Power of Omega-3 & -6 Fatty Acids (Get the book.)

"She reacts to soybean oil." The doctor sighed, and began to give Anju the condescending Crazy Mom treatment. Because Anju was a physician herself, she was generally spared from that attitude, but she knew all about it, because the mothers of her autistic patients often mentioned it. Their hometown doctors rarely tried to hide the scorn that they felt for the mothers who questioned their conventional approaches. Shortly after that, Anju took Priya to an allergist. During the visit, Priya began to wheeze, and Anju told the allergist how worried she was about Priya's asthma." - Kenneth Bock, Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma, and Allergies: The Groundbreaking Program for the 4-A Disorders (Get the book.)

"Partially hydrogenated soybean oil is a trans fat associated with heart disease, breast and colon cancer, atherosclerosis and elevated cholesterol. It is even worse than saturated fat. As you can see, this "all-natural" bread will not help you on your road to health. Even if you didn't know the particular detriments of each ingredient, taking the time to read that it's main ingredients are white flour and sugar, and that the rest of the list is lengthy, would tell you to leave it on the shelf. When looking at labels, we also need to be aware of sodium levels." - Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Eat For Health: Lose Weight, Keep It Off, Look Younger, Live Longer (2 book set) (Get the book.) "Contains 2% or less of each of the following: rye meal, corn flour, molasses, rolled whole wheat, salt, dough conditioners (ammonium sulfate, sodium stearoyl lactylate), brown sugar, honey, vinegar, oatmeal, soy flour, mono and diglycerides, partially hydrogenated soybean oil. As we take a look at this list, we see the first two ingredients listed are white flour and sugar. It is junk food. • Enriched wheat flour is white flour. The bran and the germ portion of the whole wheat, which are rich in vitamins and minerals, have been refined out." - Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Eat For Health: Lose Weight, Keep It Off, Look Younger, Live Longer (2 book set) (Get the book.)

"Food sources include organ meats (such as liver, kidney), beef, soybean oil, mackerel, and peanuts, but the amounts of CoQlO in food are quite low. Recent scientific research strongly supports the health benefits of ingesting relatively high levels of CoQlO, and for this reason, supplementation is recommended. CoQlO exists in two chemically different forms, ubiquinol and ubiquinone. The vast majority of CoQlO supplements available today contain the ubiquinone form." - Steven V.

"ALA, commonly found in flax/flaxseed oil, canola oil, walnuts/walnut oil, and soybean oil, can undergo a series of elongations and desaturations by the body to yield both EPA and DHA (Fig. 6); however, these conversion rates are low, especially for DHA [85-88]. ALA is an essential fatty acid. The Al for individuals aged between 19 and 50 years for linolenic acid is 1.6 g/day and 1.1 g/day for men and women, respectively. The AMDR for ALA is 0.6-1.2% of total energy. It is recommended that up to 10% of the AMDR for ALA can be consumed as EPA and/or DHA [8]." - Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey, Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease (Get the book.)

"Almonds, safflower oil, and hazelnuts are rich in alpha-tocopherol. soybean oil, corn oil, avocados, and canola oil are rich in gamma-tocopherol. These foods naturally have a mixture of the various forms of tocopherols and tocotrienols, but always contain only the natural isomer of each." - Dr. Steve Blake, Vitamins and Minerals Demystified (Get the book.)

"Results from several studies have indicated that the regular consumption of foods containing omega-3 fatty acid including soybean oil, fish oil, and nuts may lower mortality from cardiovascular disease [227-234]. Importantly, evidence also indicates that tree nuts such as walnuts may be beneficial in cardiovascular disease for their effects on serum lipids (reviewed in [235])." - Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey, Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease (Get the book.)

"In fact, 20 percent of all calories consumed in America are from soybean oil and therefore 9 to 10 percent of all our calories are from linoleic acid instead of the omega-3 fats, which we should be eating. It is interesting that 4 to 5 million years of human evolution occurred in a seafood-rich nutritional environment in which seafood was the main source of fats. There were no seed oils, which we now use to cook French fries, doughnuts, and packaged foods. We have to ask ourselves what happens to our mind and body when our nutritional environment radically changes this way." - Mark Hyman MD, The UltraMind Solution: Fix Your Broken Brain by Healing Your Body First (Get the book.)

"Some were fed soybean oil, some lard, and others fish oil. Those who were fed fish oil developed less visceral fat, which refers to the fat surrounding the organs that is difficult to reduce and a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease17. These fish oil-fed mice also had lower leptin levels and, as we've seen, these lower levels of the hormone leptin would help regulate both appetite and metabolism." - Wendy Bazilian, DRPH, MA, RD, Steven Pratt, MD, Kathy Matthews, Superfoods Rx Diet: Lose Weight with the Power of SuperNutrients (Get the book.)

"Similarly, Kraft's zesty Italian fat-free dressing and Wishbone's fat-free ranch both list soybean oil and dairy products among their ingredients. But because the portion sizes are small, these products can still be called "fat-free," under the government's standard (less than 0.5% fat per serving). Read the ingredients. A company called Edward & Sons makes fat-free brown rice snaps in a variety of flavors (onion garlic, tamari sesame, and un-salted) with no oil. But beware! The same company makes toasted onion and vegetable rice snaps with safflower oil added. Read the ingredients." - Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., M.D., Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease (Get the book.)

"Dietary sterols include sitosterol, campe-sterol, and stigmasterol. soybean oil is the principal source of sterol esters, followed by canola, sunflower, and corn oils. Sterols reduce total cholesterol levels and LDL cholesterol because they are natural competitors of cholesterol absorption and resorption. Plant Sterols and Stanols Average dose of 3.4 g per day NCEP III recommends 2 g per day Policosanol. Policosanol is a mixture of alcohols extracted from sugar cane, wheat germ, rice bran, or beeswax." - Tori Hudson, N.D., Women's Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine: Alternative Therapies and Integrative Medicine for Total Health and Wellness (Get the book.) "Stigmasterol is closely related to beta-sitosterol. soybean oil is an important source of stigmasterol and is a better source for laboratory synthesis of progesterone than is beta-sitosterol. Some herbal sources include burdock, fennel, licorice, alfalfa, anise, and sage. The phenolic phytoestrogens are members of the flavonoids, the largest single family of plant substances, which has over 4,000 individual members. The term flavonoid derives from the Latin flavus meaning "yellow" because the flavonoids are responsible for the yellow, red, white, and blue pigments in plants." - Tori Hudson, N.D., Women's Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine: Alternative Therapies and Integrative Medicine for Total Health and Wellness (Get the book.)

"Nine percent of the calories in the American diet today come from a single omega-6 fatty acid: linoleic acid, most of it from soybean oil. Some nutrition experts think that this is fine: Omega-6s, after all, are essential fatty acids too, and their rise to dietary prominence has pushed out saturated fats, usually thought to be a positive development. But others strongly disagree, contending that the unprecedented proportion of omega-6s in the Western diet is contributing to the full range of disorders involving inflammation." - Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto (Get the book.) "Nearly a quarter of these additional calories come from added sugars (and most of that in the form of high-fructose corn syrup); roughly another quarter from added fat (most of it in the form of soybean oil); 46 percent of them from grains (mostly refined); and the few calories left (8 percent) from fruits and vegetables.* The overwhelming majority of the calories Americans have added to their diets since 1985—the 93 percent of them in the form of sugars, fats, and mostly refined grains—supply lots of energy but very little of anything else." - Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto (Get the book.)

"Common sources include walnuts, safflower oil, sunflower seeds and oil, soy nuts, corn oil, Brazil nuts, soybean oil, pecans, tofu, peanuts, peanut butter, almonds, and dark-meat chicken. Studies show that omega-6 fats can reduce total and LDL cholesterol when they replace saturated fat in the diet. But excessive intake of omega-6 fats can cause a few health problems. What Does It Mean If Our Omega-6s Are Sabotaging Our Omega-3s?" - Elaine Magee, Food Synergy: Unleash Hundreds of Powerful Healing Food Combinations to Fight Disease and Live Well (Get the book.)

"DHA oil or soybean oil during a transition between low stress and high stress periods to see the affect on aggression scores.583 The low stress was measured during summer vacation and high stress during final exams. The control students eating a typical American diet containing soybean oil increased their aggression scores significantly, but the students taking the DHA supplement showed no increased aggression. With drugs saturating our youth culture, increased aggression associated with such drugs as cocaine has become more common." - Russell L. Blaylock, M.D., Health and Nutrition Secrets (Get the book.)

"While better restaurants make their own salad dressings, most chain and fast-food restaurants rely on prepackaged salad dressings, which usually are made from soybean oil, "partially hydrogenated vegetable oil," and some type of sugar. You don't want any of these ingredients. If a nutritionally awful salad dressing is what you're faced with, ask for a little olive oil and vinegar mixed together. Balsamic, red wine, and apple cider vinegars are fine." - Jack Challem, The Food-Mood Solution: All-Natural Ways to Banish Anxiety, Depression, Anger, Stress, Overeating, and Alcohol and Drug Problems--and Feel Good Again (Get the book.)

"Cooked in partially hydrogenated vegetable oils (may contain partially hydrogenated soybean oil and/or partially hydrogenated corn oil and/or partially hydrogenated canola oil and/or cottonseed oil and/or corn oil). TBHQ and citric acid added to help preserve freshness. Dimethylpolysiloxane added as an anti-foaming agent.6 Because consumers are often left in the dark, resulting in potential untoward consequences, the court system provides a way to shine a light on hidden corporate practices while compensating victims." - Michele Simon, Appetite for Profit: How the Food Industry Undermines Our Health and How to Fight Back (Get the book.)
