In a world filled with processed foods and chemical additives, more and more people are making conscious choices about what goes on their plate. One such choice that has gained massive popularity among health-conscious individuals is the switch to cold-pressed oils. At Shudh Hindustan, we believe in going back to nature and embracing traditional methods to bring you oils that are not just pure but also packed with natural nutrition.
What Are Cold-Pressed Oils?
Cold-pressed oils are extracted by mechanically pressing oilseeds at a low temperature without the use of heat or chemicals. This method retains the oil’s natural flavor, aroma, and nutritional value, including essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins.
Unlike refined oils, which undergo processes like bleaching and deodorizing, cold-pressed oils are unrefined and chemical-free. This makes them a healthier and safer choice for everyday cooking and wellness.
Cold-Pressed vs. Refined Oils: What’s the Difference?
| Feature | Cold-Pressed Oils | Refined Oils |
|---|---|---|
| Extraction Method | Mechanical pressing at low temp | High-heat & chemical solvents |
| Nutritional Value | High (nutrients retained) | Low (nutrients destroyed) |
| Chemical Additives | None | Often present |
| Shelf Life | Natural, shorter | Artificially extended |
| Flavor & Aroma | Natural & rich | Neutral or artificial |
Cold-pressed oils are ideal for those who value purity, health, and authenticity in what they consume.
