What makes our oil cholesterol-free – behind the blend

Introduction

“Cholesterol-free oil” sounds great – but have you ever wondered *what really goes into making it?*

 

This week, we’re opening the bottle and taking you behind the scenes of our unique oil blend. You’ll learn what makes it heart-friendly, FSSAI-compliant, and full of flavour - without compromising on health.

 

The Basics: All Vegetable Oils Are Naturally Cholesterol-Free

 

Yes, it’s true. Oils from plants – like mustard, sunflower, soybean, rice bran, and palm – naturally **do not contain cholesterol** because cholesterol is only found in animal products.

But to be allowed to say “cholesterol-free” on the label, **FSSAI requires two conditions**:

– Less than 2 mg cholesterol per 100 ml

– Less than 0.1 g saturated fat per 100 ml

 

So, we take it a step further – not only zero cholesterol, but also **a smart balance of good fats.**

 

Behind Our Blend: What Makes It Special

Our blend combines carefully selected oils that are:

– Naturally cholesterol-free

– Low in saturated fat

– Rich in MUFA and PUFA – the heart-friendly fats

 

Typical base oils in our blend:

– Mustard Oil: High in MUFA, adds flavour & balance

– Sunflower Oil: Rich in PUFA, light in taste

– Soybean Oil: Balanced in MUFA and PUFA

– Rice Bran Oil: Contains natural oryzanol – which is known to support heart health when consumed as part of a balanced diet.

 

This blend allows us to offer a well-rounded oil that:

- Helps in maintaining heart health when consumed as part of a balanced diet.

– Performs well in Indian cooking

– Tastes light but rich

 

Why Blending Is Better

Each oil has its strengths. By blending, we balance:

– Fatty acid profiles

– Smoke points (for better cooking stability)

– Flavour and texture

We do not eliminate or discredit any traditional fats. Ghee, coconut oil, and butter are valuable in Indian kitchens and can be enjoyed in moderation. But for everyday cooking, a lighter oil blend can offer better balance.

 

Quality and Compliance

– Our blend meets all FSSAI cholesterol-free and saturated fat guidelines

– Every batch is tested for purity, shelf life, and nutritional values

– Our oil is fortified with Vitamin A & D as per FSSAI norms
