Joylife’s Palm Kernel Oil is a universal oil used primarily in the soaping and food industries. It’s extracted from the kernel (seed) of the palm tree, the oil is fully refined, resulting in a Milky white or slightly yellow oil that carries a bland to nonexistent odor and taste. As a result of the oil's high level of saturated fatty acids, organic palm kernel oil is a solid at room temperature. Palm kernel oil is a stiffer product than palm fruit oil and has a higher percentage of lauric acid
Palm kernel oil is a common cooking ingredient; its increasing use in the commercial food industry throughout the world is buoyed by its lower cost, the high oxidative stability (saturation) of the refined product when used for frying, and its lack of cholesterol and trans fatty acids, both viewed as being heart-healthy attributes.
Palm kernel oil, like other vegetable oils, can also be used to create biodiesel for internal combustion engines. Biodiesel has been promoted as a renewable energy source to reduce net emissions of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Therefore, biodiesel is seen as a way to decrease the impact of the greenhouse effect and as a way of diversifying energy supplies to assist national energy security plans.
Notes: Palm kernel oil and its preparations are not drugs themselves, and cannot replace the therapeutic effects of drugs, but can only be used for health care.
