Our cold-pressed Sunflower Oil is Certified organic and unrefined (no degumming, defoaming, bleaching, deodorizing etc.) and are GMO-free. It does not require hydrogenation, a process used in many commercial oils to extend shelf life at the expense of nutritional value. Hydrogenation creates transfatty acids, which boost the levels of LDL cholesterol, the "bad" cholesterol behind heart disease.
The oil is cold-pressed on demand on our farm where the sunflowers are grown organically without the use of pesticides or herbicides. We bottle the oil quickly to retain all of its nutritional value. It is 100% pure and contains no additives. Sunflower oil is an excellent source of omega 6 and omega 9 fatty acids. |
