What is Cold Pressed Oil ( Chekku Oil )
50 Years back, people used to visit oil stores with an empty container to purchase Cold Pressed Oil in retail. Cold Pressed Oil is originally manufactured in traditional way by extracting oil from seeds using wood crusher, made of East Indian Walnut (known as Vaagai Maram in Tamil) which is pressed with a very heavy stone that is wheeled by bullocks.
This type of oil, pressed in room temperature will not be heated during the extraction process and thus retains the nutrition benefits & original taste / flavour. There is no refining process required for these oils. Our Ancestors lived a long and healthy life by using this oil which gave them stamina, strength and immunity.
How Your Lifestyle Changes by Cold Pressing.
Cold pressing refers to oils obtained through pressing fruit or seeds with a modern steel press.
Although pressing produces heat through friction, the oilseeds are not precooked and consequently the oil is considered cold pressed - in contrast to large scale solvent extraction and refining operations which strip the oil of natural antioxidants, vitamins and flavour. The solvent extraction method is used to produce most common cooking oils found in supermarkets.
Cold pressed oils retain all their flavour, aroma, and nutritional value, making these oils great for cooking and skin care requirements. They contain zero grams of trans fatty acids and are naturally cholesterol-free.
It is important to note that both solvent extracted and cold pressed oils can be used in cosmetics and skin care, but only cold pressed will deliver goodness to the skin.
