Why Veernaz Wood Pressed Oils Are Better Than Refined Oils
When it comes to cooking oils, the options can feel endless. From sunflower to mustard, peanut to coconut — the variety is exciting, but what really matters is how the oil is made. The process determines not only the taste, but also the nutrition your body gets.
The two most common types are wood pressed oils and refined oils. At Veernaz, we’re passionate about helping you understand the difference so you can make the healthiest choice for your family.
🌿 What are Wood Pressed Oils?
Wood pressed oils (also called cold pressed or chekku oils) are extracted using the traditional wooden ghani method. Seeds or nuts are slowly crushed at low temperatures, without heat or chemicals. This gentle process preserves:
-
Natural aroma and flavor
-
Essential nutrients and antioxidants
-
Healthy fats that are good for the heart
-
Vitamin E for skin, hair, and immunity
At Veernaz, every drop of our oil is pure, chemical-free, and made the way nature intended.
🏭 What are Refined Oils?
Refined oils go through high-heat industrial extraction, often using chemical solvents like hexane. The oil is then bleached and deodorized to make it look clear and odorless. Unfortunately, this process:
-
Strips away nutrients and antioxidants
-
Alters the natural fat structure
-
Often adds preservatives to extend shelf life
-
Creates a neutral taste, but at the cost of natural goodness
In short — refined oils may look clean, but they’ve lost most of what makes oil truly healthy.
