Apraso’s cold-pressed sunflower oil is prized for its numerous uses and health benefits, thanks to its natural extraction process that preserves its nutritional integrity:

      1. Cooking and Culinary Uses:
        • High Smoke Point: Sunflower oil has a high smoke point, making it suitable for high-heat cooking methods such as frying, sautéing, and baking.
        • Neutral Flavor:  Its mild flavor makes it versatile for use in various cuisines and dishes without overpowering other ingredients.
      2. Skin and Hair Care:

        • Vitamin E: Sunflower oil is a good source of vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage by free radicals, thereby supporting overall health and immunity.
      5. Digestive Health:
        • Light and Easily Digestible: Its light texture and easy digestibility make sunflower oil a preferred choice for those with sensitive stomachs or digestive issues.
