Product Information

Organic sunflower oil is a vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of sunflowers (Helianthus annuus). "Organic" indicates that the sunflowers were grown and processed without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs), adhering to organic farming standards. The mention of Bangalore, Karnataka, India, suggests the origin of the sunflowers used to produce the oil. Sunflower oil is a common cooking oil and is also used in cosmetics and other industries.

Origin: Bangalore, Karnatka, India

Product Information:

  • Appearance: Typically light golden or amber in color, though the exact shade can vary.
  • Extraction Method: Organic sunflower oil is usually extracted by cold-pressing or expeller-pressing to retain more nutrients and flavor. Refined versions are also available, which have a higher smoke point but may lose some nutrients.
  • Types:
  • High-Linoleic: The most common type, high in omega-6 fatty acids.
  • High-Oleic: Contains more monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acids, making it more stable for cooking at high temperatures.
  • Mid-Oleic (or NuSun): A balance of oleic and linoleic acids.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • Vitamin E: Sunflower oil is a rich source of Vitamin E, an antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage.
  • Unsaturated Fats: Contains beneficial unsaturated fats, including linoleic acid (omega-6) and/or oleic acid (omega-9), depending on the type.
  • Low in Saturated Fat: Generally low in saturated fat compared to some other oils.
  • Plant Sterols: Contains plant sterols, which may help lower cholesterol levels.

Storage:

  • Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
  • An airtight container is recommended to prevent oxidation and maintain freshness.
  • Keep the container dry to prevent the growth of bacteria or mold.

Shelf Life:

  • Unopened sunflower oil typically has a shelf life of 1-2 years when stored properly.
  • Once opened, the shelf life is generally around 6 months, but it can vary depending on storage conditions.
