Ghee vs. Oil: Why Ghee is the Ultimate Superfood for Health

Are you using refined oils in your kitchen, thinking they’re healthier? Think again! While oils are widely used, they lack nutrients, contain harmful chemicals, and can cause serious health issues. On the other hand, ghee is a natural, time-tested superfood packed with essential nutrients and healing properties.

Let’s explore why ghee is better than oil for your overall health, weight loss, digestion, and even heart health.

1. Ghee vs. Oil: A Nutritional Face-Off

Nutrient	Ghee (Bilona Method)	Refined Oil
Fat Composition	Healthy saturated fats (SCFAs & MCFAs)	High in trans fats and unhealthy PUFA
Smoke Point	250°C (safe for high-heat cooking)	Low smoke point, oxidizes easily
Vitamins	A, D, E, K (fat-soluble)	No natural vitamins
Omega Balance	Balanced Omega-3 & Omega-6	High Omega-6, causes inflammation
Antioxidants	Rich in CLA & butyrate (anti-inflammatory)	No natural antioxidants
Chemical-Free?	100% natural, no processing	Processed with chemicals & solvents

🔸 Key takeaway: Ghee provides essential nutrients and is safe for cooking, while refined oils lose nutrients during processing and may turn toxic when heated.

2. The Truth About Adulteration & Chemicals in Oils

🚨 Did you know that over 60% of cooking oils on the market are adulterated?

Harmful Additives in Oils	Side Effects on Health
Hexane & Petroleum Derivatives	Affects liver & kidneys
Trans Fats	Increases risk of heart disease
Palm Oil Blends	Linked to obesity & diabetes
Synthetic Antioxidants (BHA, BHT)	Can cause cancer

How Ghee is Free from Adulteration

5. Why Our Gauras Ghee is Different: The Bilona Process

At Organojii, we follow the Vedic Bilona method, ensuring purity and nutrition.

Step-by-Step Process of Making Our Pure Ghee:

1️⃣ Grass-Fed Desi Cow Milk 🐄 – Only A2 milk from organically raised cows is used.
2️⃣ Curd Formation – The milk is naturally fermented into curd.
3️⃣ Bilona Hand-Churning – The curd is churned in an earthen pot to extract butter.
4️⃣ Slow Cooking on Firewood 🔥 – The butter is heated on low flame to retain nutrients.
5️⃣ Filtered & Packed – No chemicals, no preservatives—just pure golden ghee!

💡 Fun Fact: The by-product buttermilk is given back to our cows, improving their gut health and milk quality!
