In a time when people are becoming more aware of what goes into their food, choosing the right cooking oil has become more important than ever. Among the many oils available in the market today, wood pressed groundnut oil stands out as a pure, nutrient-rich, and traditional choice that brings both health and flavour to the Indian kitchen.

 

At Medhavi SuperFoods, we bring you wood cold-pressed groundnut oil extracted using the age-old wooden ghani method – no chemicals, no high heat, just pure nutrition the way nature intended. Here’s why this oil deserves a permanent spot on your kitchen shelf.


1. Traditional Method, Maximum Nutrition

 

Wood pressed groundnut oil is made by crushing high-quality groundnuts slowly in a wooden churner (lakdi ghani), without generating heat. Unlike refined oils, this process preserves the oil’s natural vitamins, antioxidants, and healthy fats, ensuring you get wholesome nutrition in every drop.

 

In our Indian homes, where food is more than just taste – it’s medicine, love, and culture – this traditional process aligns perfectly with our roots.


2. Rich in Heart-Healthy Fats

 

Many people wrongly assume that all fats are bad. The truth is, our body needs good fats, and groundnut oil is full of them – especially monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids (MUFA & PUFA). These healthy fats help:

  • Reduce bad cholesterol (LDL)

  • Boost good cholesterol (HDL)

  • Support heart health and circulation

Using Medhavi's wood pressed groundnut oil for daily cooking is a smart step for those managing cholesterol, blood pressure, or general cardiovascular wellness.


3. Perfect for Indian Cooking

 

From deep-frying pakoras to sautéing sabzis and tempering dals, groundnut oil is versatile and flavourful. Its high smoke point (about 210°C) means it doesn’t break down easily into harmful compounds at high temperatures — making it ideal for Indian cooking styles like tadka, frying, and roasting.

 

Plus, the subtle nutty aroma enhances the natural flavours of spices without overpowering your dishes. Whether it’s a crunchy masala dosa, fluffy poori, or a humble upma — this oil makes every dish richer and more satisfying.


4. Immunity Boosting and Antioxidant-Rich

 

Groundnut oil is a natural source of Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect the body from oxidative stress, supports skin health, and strengthens immunity.

 

It also contains resveratrol, a plant compound with anti-inflammatory and anti-ageing properties. Regular use of this oil in your cooking can give your family’s immune system a subtle yet steady boost — a benefit that’s especially crucial in today’s health-conscious times.


5. Free from Chemicals and Additives

 

Refined oils often undergo bleaching, deodorising, and chemical treatment. But at Medhavi SuperFoods, we keep it simple. Our wood pressed groundnut oil is:

  • 100% natural

  • Unrefined and chemical-free

  • Non-GMO and preservative-free

This means you get a clean, wholesome oil that retains its natural colour, aroma, and nutrients — just the way nature intended.


6. Supports Weight Management

 

When combined with a balanced diet and active lifestyle, groundnut oil can actually support weight loss and metabolism. Since it’s rich in healthy fats and low in saturated fats, it provides satiety — helping you feel fuller for longer and avoiding binge eating.

 

Just remember: moderation is key. A teaspoon of quality oil is better than a tablespoon of processed fat!


7. Good for Growing Kids and Seniors

 

From toddlers to grandparents, groundnut oil caters to everyone. It helps in brain development in kids due to healthy fats, supports joint lubrication in seniors, and provides energy for the entire family.

 

Use it for making rotis, dosa, poha, khichdi, or even your homemade chutneys — it blends beautifully with daily Indian meals.


8. Sustainable and Locally Sourced

 

At Medhavi SuperFoods, we believe in ethical sourcing and supporting Indian farmers. Our groundnuts are locally grown and processed in small batches using traditional wood pressing, ensuring minimal environmental impact and maximum freshness.

 

When you choose our oil, you not only nourish your family but also empower rural livelihoods and sustainable farming practices.


9. Shelf-Stable and Long-Lasting

 

Thanks to its natural antioxidants, wood pressed groundnut oil has a good shelf life without needing synthetic preservatives. Store it in a cool, dark place, and you’ll have a flavourful oil that lasts for months.


Conclusion: A Must-Have in Every Indian Kitchen

 

In a world full of processed and refined products, switching to Medhavi SuperFoods’ Wood Pressed Groundnut Oil is a small but powerful step toward mindful living. It’s pure, traditional, and loaded with health benefits — just like the food our grandmothers lovingly made.

 

Whether you’re a home chef, a fitness enthusiast, or a mom looking for clean ingredients, this oil checks all the boxes. Once you start using it, you’ll wonder why you didn’t switch earlier!
