These effects, underline the researchers of this study, were found after the use of soybean oil and not other soy-based products or other oils vegetables.
Chemicals in soybean oil that could be responsible for the changes found in the hypothalamus have also not been identified. The conditional, however, is a must. Indeed, we have to wait for more searches to see if this oil really has undesirable effects and possibly which ones.
