In every Indian household, cooking oil is a daily essential. Whether it’s for tadka, deep frying, or greasing a tawa, oil touches almost every meal we prepare. But not all oils are made equal. In the race for convenience and cost-cutting, most commercial oils go through chemical refining, high-heat extraction, and processing — which strips away natural nutrients and adds unwanted residues. That’s where wood cold-pressed oil comes in — a traditional, healthier choice that is now making a powerful comeback in modern Indian kitchens.

Let’s explore why wood cold-pressed oil is the healthiest pick for your cooking needs and how Medhavi Superfoods ensures you get purity, nutrition, and tradition in every drop.

What Is Wood Cold-Pressed Oil?

Wood cold-pressed oil is extracted using the traditional “ghani” or wooden churner method. In this method, oil is extracted slowly at a low temperature (usually below 40°C), ensuring that the oil retains its natural aroma, nutrients, antioxidants, and flavour. Unlike refined oils, no heat, chemicals, or preservatives are used.

The result? A wholesome, chemical-free, nutrient-rich oil that’s easier to digest and better for your overall health.

Why Is It Healthier?

1. Retains Natural Nutrients
   Wood cold pressing retains essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins like A, E, and K. These are crucial for skin health, heart health, and immunity.
   
   

2. Free from Chemicals and Additives
   Unlike refined oils, which undergo degumming, bleaching, and deodorising (yes, it's as bad as it sounds), wood cold-pressed oils are pure and natural.
   
   

3. Better for Digestion
   Since these oils are less processed, they are lighter on the stomach and easier to digest — especially helpful for elderly family members and children.
   
   

4. Ideal for Indian Cooking
   Wood cold-pressed oils have a high smoke point and can handle Indian cooking styles like deep-frying, roasting, or sautéing without breaking down into harmful compounds.
   
   

5. Rich in Flavour and Aroma
   You’ll notice a distinct taste and natural fragrance in your food. Whether it’s cold-pressed groundnut oil for your bhindi fry or sesame oil for chutneys, the difference is evident.
