Overview

Safflower oil is a popular cooking oil that comes from the seeds of the safflower plant (Carthamus tinctorius L.), is an annual broadleaf crop belonging to Compositae or Asteraceae family. It is found in many parts of Asia, the Middle East and Africa. Some research suggests it may have some health benefits when people use it in the diet and on the skin. Safflower oil may be a more healthful option than olive oil when cooking at high temperatures, thanks to its high smoke point and neutral flavor.

Benefits

Safflower oil is packed with oleic acid and omega-6 fatty acids, which can enhance hair health by improving circulation in the scalp, encouraging growth, and adding a beautiful shine. The linoleic acid in safflower oil also plays a role in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels, which can lower the risk of heart issues like atherosclerosis. As a natural laxative, it helps relieve constipation and promotes sweating to help eliminate toxins. The omega-6 fatty acids are beneficial for managing blood sugar levels, aiding in diabetes control. When it comes to skin care, safflower oil can unclog pores, reduce blackheads and acne, and promote cell regeneration to minimize scars. It also helps regulate prostaglandins, which can enhance immune function. Applying it topically on inflamed joints may alleviate arthritis pain, and it can assist with respiratory problems by thinning mucus. Regular use can support muscle growth, and its ability to regulate prostaglandins.

Why Choose Us

It helps to retain the aroma, flavours, and healthy nutrition. The zero involvement of heat in the cold-pressed method makes it a better choice. Although it is a time-consuming process, the quality is much better when compared to the other oils. Besides retention, natural aroma, nutrition, flavour, and texture are its other highlights.

On the contrary, the refined oil-making process involves filtration through various unwanted and hazardous chemicals and heat, making the oils look light and shiny. This mechanized process makes the oilseed devoid of natural organic ingredients that our body needs daily. Refined oil has a lot of fat and is vacant of nutrition.
