No preservatives. No artificial colours. No added flavours. Nothing else.
Store your Kshira Organics Wood Pressed Groundnut Oil in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve its natural golden colour, nutty aroma, and nutritional integrity. Keep the cap tightly sealed after every use to prevent oxidation.
Due to its 100% natural, unrefined composition, a slight natural sediment may appear at the bottom of the bottle over time — this is completely normal and a reassuring sign of purity and the absence of chemical filtering. Simply give the bottle a gentle shake before use.
Kshira Organics Wood Pressed Groundnut Oil is one of India's most nutritionally complete and traditionally trusted cooking oils. Cold-pressing at low temperatures — in a wooden Kolhu — retains the full spectrum of nutrients, healthy fats, and bioactive compounds that commercial refining and high-heat extraction completely destroy.
Rich in monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) — particularly oleic acid — wood pressed groundnut oil supports healthy HDL (good) cholesterol levels, reduces LDL oxidation, and promotes long-term cardiovascular health. Recognised by nutritionists as one of the most heart-friendly oils for everyday Indian cooking.
Naturally rich in Vitamin E (tocopherols) and resveratrol — a potent antioxidant also found in red wine — cold-pressed groundnut oil helps neutralise free radicals, reduce oxidative stress, and protect cells from inflammation-related damage. Refining destroys both; cold-pressing preserves them fully.
With a smoke point of approximately 230°C (446°F), wood pressed groundnut oil is exceptionally stable at high cooking temperatures. It does not oxidise or release harmful free radicals during deep frying, tadka, or high-heat cooking — making it a safer and healthier choice than refined oils that degrade under heat.
The natural fatty acid profile of cold-pressed groundnut oil supports healthy bile secretion and fat digestion. Regular use as part of a balanced diet is associated with improved nutrient absorption, reduced digestive discomfort, and better overall gut function — consistent with traditional Indian dietary wisdom.
The Vitamin E and essential fatty acids in cold-pressed groundnut oil deeply nourish and moisturise the skin, support the skin's natural barrier, and help reduce dryness and inflammation. Used topically, it is a time-tested natural remedy for soft skin, cracked heels, and dry scalp.
Groundnut oil is a calorie-dense, nutrient-rich energy source that provides sustained fuel without blood sugar spikes. Its natural antioxidant content — preserved entirely through cold-pressing — actively supports the immune system and helps the body manage everyday inflammation.
Unlike refined and partially hydrogenated oils, wood pressed groundnut oil contains zero trans fats — the harmful byproduct of industrial oil processing linked to cardiovascular disease and metabolic disorders. What is pressed is what is bottled. Nothing more.
Use as your primary cooking oil for tadka, curries, sabzis, stir-fries, and sautéing. Its naturally mild, nutty flavour complements rather than overpowers — making it the ideal everyday oil for Gujarati, Rajasthani, Maharashtrian, and South Indian cuisine where groundnut oil is a kitchen essential.
Its high smoke point (~230°C) makes wood pressed groundnut oil the safest and most stable choice for deep frying, pakoras, puris, and bhujias. It holds temperature consistently and does not break down or turn rancid under sustained heat — unlike refined oils that degrade and release harmful compounds.
Use cold or at room temperature as a finishing oil or salad dressing base. The authentic nutty aroma of cold-pressed groundnut oil adds a rich, natural depth to chutneys, marinades, and raw preparations that refined oil simply cannot replicate.
Warm gently and apply to the scalp and hair lengths for deep conditioning and improved circulation. Use on dry skin, cracked heels, and rough elbows as a natural moisturiser. Its lightweight texture absorbs well without leaving a heavy residue — a trusted Ayurvedic remedy for generations.
Use for traditional gandusha (oil pulling) — swishing a tablespoon of oil in the mouth for 10–15 minutes on an empty stomach — an Ayurvedic practice associated with improved oral hygiene, reduced bacteria, and fresher breath. The natural, unrefined composition of cold-pressed groundnut oil makes it the recommended choice for this practice.
