Palm oil, along with coconut oil, is one of the few highly saturated vegetable fats. It is semi-solid at room temperaturesand contains several saturated and unsaturated fats in the forms of glyceryl laurate (0.1%, saturated), myristate (1%, saturated), palmitate (*4%, saturated), stearate (5%, saturated), oleate (*9%, monounsaturated), linoleate (*0%,polyunsaturated), and alpha-linolenate (0.3%, polyunsaturated). Like all vegetable oils, palm oil does not containcholesterol,although saturated fat intake increases both LDL  and HDL cholesterol. Palm oil is GMO-free,  i.e., it is not derived from genetically modified organisms.

Palm oil is a common cooking ingredient in the tropical belt of Africa, Southeast Asia and parts of Brazil. Its use in the commercial food industry in other parts of the world is buoyed by its lower cost and by the high oxidative stability (saturation) of the refined product when used for frying.A recent rise in the use of palm oil in the food industry has come from changed labelling requirements that have caused a switch away from using trans fats although palm oil is not a healthy alternative to oils that contain trans fats.
