DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COLD PRESSED OILS & REFINED OILS: Refined oils are extracted using high heat. Also known as hot-pressed oils, refined oils are made by first cleaning them, then grinding them at high speed, which can generate heat up to 200°C and using some chemicals, which finally gives us the oil. On the other hand, cold-pressed oils are crushed slowly to extract oil from them. No heat is generated during the process. This also helps in retaining the nutrients and the flavours.
WHICH OIL IS HEALTHY; COLD PRESSED OR REFINED OIL? Cold-pressed oils are definitely healthier than refined oils. Most of the nutritive capacity of refined oil is lost after they are exposed to high heat & chemicals. The case is completely different in cold-pressed oils, which retain most of their nutrients because of a heat-free and chemical-free manufacturing process. Most cold-pressed oils are rich in Vitamin E, which has anti-inflammatory properties and Oleic acid, which boosts your immunity.
BENEFITS OF USING COLD PRESSED OILS : Cold-pressed oils are good source of polyunsaturated Fatty acids. These oils retain the healthy and nutritional qualities of oilseeds. Cold-pressing retains the natural, healthy antioxidants, which is otherwise destroyed by heat. These oils are a great source of Omega-3 & Omega-6 Fatty Acids, rich in Zinc & Vitamins like A, C, E, D, Potassium & lecithin, which are vital for good vision, kidneys and a healthy heart.
