Isopropyl Palmitate and the Vegetarian Diet
Isopropyl palmitate is an ester of isopropyl alcohol and palmitic acid, a fatty acid derived from palm oil or other vegetable oils. It is widely used in cosmetics and personal care products for its ability to enhance the texture and feel of formulations, providing a silky and smooth application. Although primarily used in non-food products, isopropyl palmitate may occasionally be present in dietary supplements as a filler or stabilizing agent.
