Cold pressed Vs refined oils - which is more beneficial to our health?
Undoubtedly cold pressed oils are a more healthy alternative to refined oils. The exact benefits are outlined below.
Nutrient Retention: Cold-pressed oils retain more of the natural nutrients, antioxidants, and phytochemicals present in the source material due to the absence of heat and chemicals during extraction. This can provide potential health benefits such as improved heart health, reduced inflammation, and enhanced nutrient intake.
Flavour and Aroma : Cold-pressed oils typically have a more pronounced flavor and aroma compared to refined oils since they retain more of the natural compounds from the seeds, nuts, or fruits. This can add depth and complexity to dishes, especially in raw or lightly cooked preparations like salads and dips.
Less Processing: Cold-pressed oils are a more natural and minimally processed option compared to refined oils.
