Crude Organic Sunflower Oil

Sunflower oil is derived from the seeds of the sunflower plant, and it is characterized by a remarkably neutral flavor and an almost translucent, mildly yellow hue. This versatile oil finds application in diverse sectors, encompassing the food industry, cosmetics, and even the fuel industry.

Its consumption has been associated with potential health benefits, including the reduction of cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the bloodstream, lowering risks of heart diseases and it elevates high-density lipoprotein (HDL), often referred to as "good cholesterol." Furthermore, sunflower oil serves as a rich natural source of vitamin E.

Product Highlights
  • Sunflower oil is used in the food, medicine, and skin industries. It has many health benefits because it's low in saturated fat and high in polyunsaturated fatty acids and monounsaturated fatty acids.
  • Due to this, sunflower consumption can help reduce cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood as well as heart diseases, it increases HDL, the "Good cholesterol", and it's also a great natural source of Vitamin E.
Characteristics
  • One of the important properties of sunflower oil is that the unsaturated fats it contains are well metabolized in the liver. This contributes to improving cholesterol profiles, increasing HDL (good cholesterol) levels.
  • It is also one of the richest oils in vitamin E (56mg/100g), this vitamin exerts an antioxidant action in the body since it retains 50% of the oxygen normally metabolized by cells and tissues, which helps to control and reduce heart and cells fatigue.
