Soybean oil. Its properties and benefits.
Soybean oil has medicinal properties, due to which with regular use the body becomes strong and healthy. This kind of oil acts in a directed way: children need oil for full development and growth; women make butter beautiful and delicate; men thanks to the use of oil remain strong and manly.
Soybean oil, in contrast to other vegetable oils has a fairly high biological activity, and therefore absorbed by the body almost completely (98-100%). In ancient times in the East they knew about these properties of this oil: for example, healers and scientists of China wrote about the properties of soybean oil more than 5000 years ago - at that time already learned from soya to prepare dozens of various dishes.
In Europe, only soy was found in the mid-18th century AD. The first to learn about the new food was learned by the French. By the way, France got soy sauce, not soya itself. In England, they learned about soybeans by the end of the century.
We only learned about soybeans at the beginning of the 20th century, and only "thanks to" the Russian-Japanese war: the Far East had problems with the cart of products and therefore the soldiers were fed soy products.
The first mention of soy oil is found in authors from China who linked the use of soybean oil with sexuality in men, and at that time it was indeed the strongest aphrodisiac. In antiquity, there were other ideas about the sexual power of men, they differ sharply with our modern ideas: for example, in ancient times it was believed that a normal man should have at least 10 women. Thus, every day he had to perform 10 sexual acts, it is only in this case he will be in fine form until old age. Therefore, modern men should not ignore soybean oil in order to have at least a part of "this energy".
Composition of soybean oil.
In its composition, soybean oil has a large amount of vitamin E (consisting of forms E1, E2), which is necessary for sexual health. Vitamin E is 2b1, that is, it has two forms, and today they are known: E1 are tocopherols (delta, alpha, gamma, beta), E2 are tocotrienols (delta, alpha, gamma, beta). To the vitamin is absorbed by the body, both its forms are needed. Both forms are found only in natural products, in pharmacy vitamins do not contain tocotrienols, and therefore the body does not absorb vitamin E.
If you regularly eat fresh foods (as well as soybean oil), which includes vitamin E, then it will be absorbed by the body almost 100%. Most doctors, unfortunately, do not know about this, or do not want to know.
The composition of soybean oil includes other components: calcium, vitamin C, sodium, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, as well as lecithin, unsaturated and saturated acids. In soybean oil, linoleic acid is the most, this acid prevents the development of cancer. Next come palmitic, oleic, stearic and alpha-linolenic acids. All these substances do not allow cholesterol to accumulate in the vessels. Soybean oil is well used for the prevention of atherosclerosis, kidney disease. In addition, soybean oil is useful in that it removes the effects of stress well, strengthens immunity, stimulates the intestine, improves metabolism.
Getting soybean oil.
At present, soybean oil is produced in Russia in two ways: pressing is a mechanical method, and extraction is a chemical method.
But the technologies do not stand still, but continue to develop, and double pressing has been used most often, while the original product retains its natural properties, the oil leaves environmentally friendly, and energy is consumed less.
The method of direct hexane extraction is today considered to be the most modern: the oil is extracted by organic dissolution method, ensuring that the product is of excellent quality, which is not inferior to imported vegetable oils, and is in demand in other countries (some of this oil is exported).
Cold-pressed oil is considered the most useful, this oil has a pronounced odor and can not be stored for long. After extraction or extraction, any oil is filtered, and then the product is called a crude oil.
To produce unrefined oil, it must undergo a hydration process: the shelf life is increased, but the biological value of the product is reduced. Unrefined oil has a strong smell, bright color, pronounced taste of soybean seeds. Useful substances are retained, often a precipitate is formed. In soybean oil, a lot of lecithin, which helps improve brain activity.
Many sources advise eating only refined soybean oil, this is motivated by the fact that the taste and smell of unrefined not everyone will like. Harm, of course, it does not cause, nevertheless, it is not necessary to fry with such oil, since toxins are formed, including carcinogens.
Application of soybean oil.
In cosmetology: soybean oil has useful properties used in cosmetology. To care for oily skin, this oil is best not to use (it can become comedogenic), but for normal and dry skin, soybean oil fits well. Soya oil moisturizes and nourishes the skin, helps to retain moisture, creating a protective barrier on the surface. Masks with soybean oil with dry, coarse and weather-beaten skin, will help restore the skin smoothness, fresh and healthy color.
Soybean oil for mature skin is considered a good care: restores the faded skin elasticity and tone, rejuvenates the skin, eliminates having fine wrinkles, slows down the aging process.
In cooking: refined soybean oil is delicious, it can cook not only vegetables, but also fry fish and meat, prepare cold appetizers, bake, cook both the first dishes, and the second (in Russia it is simply not accustomed to it). In the Russian Far East, soybean oil is the main (other oils are also used, but already as additional), and this is understandable, because there is a lot of soya grown there. In soybean oil there has grown more than one generation. If the oil has passed the process of hydration and filtration, neutralization, bleaching and deodorization, then the oil can be safely considered refined. Refined oil should be stored in a dark glass bottle and in a dark place, and then it can retain its properties for a long time.
