Palm Kernel Oil is a vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of the oil palm tree. It is commonly used in cooking, baking, and food processing due to its high saturated fat content, which helps improve shelf life and stability in various products. In addition to culinary uses, Palm Kernel Oil is also found in personal care items like soaps and cosmetics. Its moisturizing properties make it a popular ingredient in lotions and creams. However, the production of palm oil and its derivatives has raised environmental concerns, particularly regarding deforestation and habitat loss.
