Disclosed herein is an oil composition comprising the following components
(A) and (B):(A) 15 to 70% by weight of diglycerides in which less than
15% by weight of the constitutive fatty acids are (3 type unsaturated
fatty acids; and (B) 30 to 85% by weight of a triglyceride in which at
least 15% by weight of the constitutive fatty acids are (3 type
unsaturated fatty acids. The oil composition is good in flavor, hard to
be colored, excellent in hydrolytic stability and resistance to
oxidation, good in emulsion stability and excellent in intake balance
among fatty acids even under severe conditions that heating is performed
at a high temperature for a long period of time, can be widely developed
to medicinal preparations and foods and moreover exhibit an excellent
inhibitory effect on accumulation of body fat by ingestion of a small
amount of diglycerides.
