Corn is the oldest of the grain crops, it began to be grown 12 thousand years ago in South and Central America, where it is called maize. The ongoing archaeological excavations confirm the use of the grains of this vegetable already in our civilization. can be safely called the main basis for the development of the ancient peoples of America: the Aztecs, Mayans and Olmecs.

Dear readers, today we will talk about corn oil. It is not very popular with us, which, in my opinion, is undeserved. Did you know that it is much healthier than the usual sunflower oil for all of us? It is used not only in cooking, but also in cosmetology, for the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. True, you need to know the features of the use of this natural product. We will consider with you the beneficial properties of corn oil, talk about contraindications.
Despite the fact that corn has been grown for several thousand years, oil from it began to be produced on a large scale and used for cooking at the end of the 19th century, more precisely, in 1898 in Indiana (USA). Corn oil is produced from seed germ - a product left after processing of raw materials.
A special technology is used to preserve all the useful substances in the oil. It consists in pre-soaking corn kernels for 30-40 hours, which are then treated with sulfur dioxide. As a result of such manipulations, a transparent liquid of light yellow color is obtained. If it is cleaned, then such an oil will not have a smell.
Composition of corn oil
Corn oil contains:
- many vitamins - groups B, F, C, natural antioxidant tocopherol (vitamin E), PP, provitamin A;
- unsaturated and saturated fatty acids, lecithin;
- minerals that are indispensable for the human body - magnesium, iron, potassium, etc .;
- useful acids - palmitic, stearic, oleic, stearic, linoleic.
Useful properties of corn oil
Doctors, nutritionists and traditional medicine recommend regularly consuming a small amount of corn oil - just 1-2 teaspoons per day - for the prevention and recovery of the body after various diseases.
The following beneficial properties of corn oil can be noted:
- thanks to the content of acids, it is able to maintain normal metabolism and cholesterol levels. People who have heart problems and are at risk of vascular damage should follow a special diet that includes corn oil;
- since the oil is easily digested and absorbed, it is an excellent dietary product. Has a mild laxative effect. The oil will help to improve the functioning of the stomach, gallbladder, liver. That is why doctors advise replacing sunflower oil with corn oil if a person has a problem with being overweight;
- due to the presence of unsaturated fatty acids, oil can be considered an excellent tool for maintaining immunity;
- those who have the problem of dry skin, deterioration of nails, brittleness and hair loss, just need vitamin E, which is present in corn oil;
- the product is used in the preparation of baby food, as it contains many components that are useful for an actively growing and developing organism;

The benefits of corn oil have already been proven, but it should still be used with caution. Since it is high in calories, it should not be abused.
Varieties of corn oil
There are several types of oil:
- refined deodorized brand P. Used in catering establishments for cooking;
- refined deodorized brand D. Doctors recommend this oil for use by children, people who have certain indications for health reasons, and those who carefully monitor their figure;
- refined not deodorized. It is cleaned, but it retains the characteristic smell of oil, and someone loves it for that;
- unrefined. Unlike previous varieties, this oil has a darker color and has a slight sediment. It contains much more useful substances.
I suggest watching a video about the varieties of corn oil and choosing the most useful oil for yourself.
Refined corn oil - the benefits and harms
Refined oil is subjected to more thorough processing than unrefined. Deodorized oil does not have its natural odor due to the fact that it goes through a stage of removing aromatic substances under vacuum by exposure to water vapor. This allows you to both get rid of the characteristic odor and extend the life of the product. In addition, thorough cleaning and processing rid the product of the presence of possible impurities that may be harmful to the body.
Due to the fact that this oil does not burn and absolutely does not foam when frying, it is it that is most often used in cooking. When heated, carcinogens are not formed. Its neutral taste and aroma allows it to be used even for dressing light summer salads.
Unrefined corn oil - the benefits and harms
Due to some features of production, it retains a greater amount of useful substances, but there are also negative aspects. Since this oil does not go through as thorough processing as refined oil, pesticides that were used in growing corn can remain in it. Although manufacturers of corn oil, of course, try to take care of the purity of their product.
