Consumers can take action to reduce their reliance on palm oil by:

• Reading Labels: Be vigilant about checking ingredient labels. Palm oil can be listed under various names, including palm kernel oil, palmitate, and glyceryl stearate.
• Choosing Certified Products: Look for products certified by organizations that promote sustainable palm oil practices, such as the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). These certifications can help ensure that palm oil is sourced responsibly.
• Supporting Alternatives: Opt for brands that use sustainable or alternative oils, and advocate for transparency in ingredient sourcing.
