For instance, the favorable fat composition of peanut oil, with around 50% monounsaturated fats (MUFAs) and 32% polyunsaturated fats, plays a crucial role in its market growth. MUFAs, known for heart health benefits, and polyunsaturated fats, which support overall well-being, make peanut oil appealing to health-conscious consumers. This healthy fat ratio aligns with the growing demand for oils that promote cardiovascular health and reduce cholesterol levels. As more consumers seek plant-based, nutritious cooking oils, peanut oil’s balanced fat profile boosts its popularity in both home cooking and the food service industry, driving its sustained market expansion globally.
