Aceite vegetal, or vegetable oil, is a versatile cooking oil derived from plant-based sources such as soybeans, sunflowers, corn, or canola. Common in global cuisines, it serves as a base for frying, sautéing, baking, and dressing foods, with particularly widespread use in Latin American, Mediterranean, and Asian dishes. Rich in unsaturated fats like omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, vegetable oil can support heart health when consumed in moderation. However, refined versions often lack micronutrients, and excessive use may contribute to inflammation or weight gain due to high calorie content. Cold-pressed or minimally processed varieties tend to retain more nutrients. While it is generally cholesterol-free, some types may contain trans fats depending on production methods. Vegetable oil should be stored in a cool place and used sparingly in healthy diets to maximize nutritional benefits while minimizing potential risks.
