Healthy, Safe Organic Seed Oil:-)
Organic OIL:
The BIG Difference Between *Organic High Oleic Sunflower Oil & *Conventional Non Organic Sunflower Oil-
The Difference In Farming Practices:
Organic High Oleic sunflower oil- is made from sunflowers that are grown without synthetic pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. This not only leads to healthier soil and a cleaner product but also contributes to sustainable farming practices that enhance biodiversity.
Conventional Sunflower Oil: comes from crops grown that are being treated with pesticides & chemicals leaving residues that affect human health and the environment.
The Difference In Processing Methods:
Organic High Oleic Sunflower Oil: is expeller pressed from the seed instead of using a harmful chemicals to extract it. This process preserves its natural nutrients and flavors.
Conventional Sunflower Oil: is chemically extracted from non organic seeds using a hexane gas solvent to chemically extract the sunflower oil from the seeds, adding the pottentially dangerous side effects of Hexane neurotoxicity, but also stripping away any health benefits from the oil and leading to the formation of trans fats, which are associated with an increased risk of heart disease and other health issues.
The Difference In Nutritional Value:
Organic High Oleic Sunflower Oil: When it comes to nutrition, organic high oleic sunflower oil has a higher content of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, particularly oleic acid, a monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid. These fats help improve cholesterol levels and support overall heart health.
Conventional Sunflower Oil: This oil is high in linoleic acid an omega-6 fatty acids. Excessive intake of omega-6 can contribute to inflammation in the body, especially when not balanced with omega-3 fatty acids.
The Difference on the Environment:
The Organic Sunflower Growing Method actively supports sustainable farming practices that protect the environment and promote biodiversity. Organic farming enhances soil health and reduces pollution,
The *Conventional Sunflower Growing Method leads to soil degradation and loss of biodiversity.
In summary, opting for organic high oleic sunflower oil means better health benefits due to its nutritional profile, a commitment to sustainability, and a cleaner, safer product. It’s a simple choice that positively impacts your health and the planet!

Balancing omega-3 and omega-6 intake is key to reducing inflammation and promoting long-term health.
*Conventional Sunflower Oil: Is the oil extracted from a non organic sunflower seed that is grown using both pesticides & herbacides. Conventional sunflower oil is chemically extracted from the sunflower seeds using a hexane solvent and contains chemical stablizers and preservatives to extend shelf life.
