Organic Cooking Oil, HIGH OLEIC Sunflower Oil, Unrefined

Oil Tree’s Organic Cooking Oil is made from a special “High Oleic” sunflower seed variety. This oil contains 80% Omega-9 (oleic acid).

Why is this important?
Plant oils rich in Omega-9 are the most stable against oxidation and are suitable for high-heat cooking, as their composition does not change under heat. In comparison, oils high in Omega-6 or Omega-3 fatty acids can form undesirable compounds when exposed to high temperatures. High Omega-9 content is also characteristic of olive oil, almond oil, avocado oil, and rapeseed oil.

Scientific studies show that adding Omega-9 fatty acids to your diet can:

• Help maintain healthy blood cholesterol levels

• Reduce insulin resistance in people with diabetes

• Increase energy levels and improve mood

• Support memory function

• Promote immune system activity

Cooking oil with a mild sunflower seed flavor is highly versatile in the kitchen and ideal for everyday meal preparation. It can be safely used for pan-frying, baking, grilling, deep-frying, or sautéing. This oil is also suitable for adding to bread, cookie, and other pastry doughs. Its neutral taste makes it perfect for preparing a wide variety of salads.
