Because soybean oil contains a variety of unsaturated fatty acids and cannot be kept fresh for a long time, hydrogenation can reduce this disadvantage.

However, it is not recommended to eat it for a long time, mainly because the high calorie and fat content in soybean oil may produce trans fatty acids, and trans fatty acids are closely related to increasing blood viscosity, so it is easier to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. risk.
2. Obesity: Soybean oil is rich in oil. If you eat soybean oil for a long time, coupled with the lack of exercise in daily life, it may lead to fat accumulation, making the total energy intake greater than Total energy consumption leads to obesity.
Soybean oil is usually used in cooking. After purchasing soybean oil, it should be sealed and placed in a dry and cool place away from sunlight. If it is stored in a place where it can be exposed to sunlight for a long time, it may cause the oxidative rancidity of fat.
