The Bitter Truth About Refined Oils

In today’s fast-paced world, convenience often trumps health. Refined oils—advertised as "heart-healthy" and "light"—have become household staples. But what most people don’t realize is that refined oils are chemically processed, nutrient-depleted, and harmful in the long run.

At KachiGhaani.com, we specialize in cold-pressed oils that are the exact opposite of refined oils. Here’s why that matters.

 

🧪 What Are Refined Oils?

Refined oils are extracted using high heat, pressure, and industrial solvents like hexane. The oil is then deodorized, bleached, and chemically altered to make it look clean and smell neutral. This may extend shelf life—but at the cost of your health.

❌ Refining destroys natural vitamins
❌ Omega fatty acids are damaged
❌ Solvent residues may remain in the oil
❌ Linked to inflammation, cholesterol imbalance, and hormonal disruption

 

 

🛢️ What Happens During the Refining Process?

Refined oils undergo multiple destructive steps:

  1. Solvent Extraction – Hexane and other petrochemicals are used.
  2. Degumming – Natural gums (which are actually beneficial) are removed.
  3. Neutralization – Natural acids are chemically altered.
  4. Bleaching – Color is removed using chemical agents.
  5. Deodorizing – High heat destroys aroma and natural compounds.
  6. Preservative Addition – To artificially extend shelf life.

The result: A shiny, odorless, tasteless oil stripped of life-giving nutrients.

 

 

🧘 Why Cold-Pressed Oils Are Better – Naturally

  • ✅ Zero chemical intervention

  • ✅ Natural flavor and aroma

  • ✅ 100% Surety of Purity
