FOOD WORD WISDOM

COLD-Pressed vs. EXPELLER-Pressed

When it comes to Oils, the impact on our Health can be Significant.

In this Blog, we will cover the🔑KEY differences between Cold-Pressed and Expeller-Pressed Oils and why choosing the right one Supports Glowing Skin, Mental Clarity, and Vibrant Living from the Inside Out!

COLD-Pressed Oils

COLD-Pressed Oils are Extracted using Mechanical Pressing Below Temperatures of around 120°F (some are even as low as 80°F).

This Gentle Process and the Low Temperature Protects Nutrients, Anti-Oxidants, Enzymes, and Healthy Fats that Nourish our Bodies and Support Cellular Regeneration.

Benefits of Cold-Pressed Oils:

✅ Preserve Natural Flavor and Aroma

✅ Naturally Extracted Without Heat Damage

✅ Free From Any Chemicals or, Anti-Foaming Agents
 
✅ Retain Essential Fatty Acids, Vitamins, and Anti-Oxidants

✅ Support Heart Health, Radiant Skin, Shiny Hair, and Mental Clarity

✅ They deliver Pure, Unaltered Nutrition

Negatives of Cold-Pressed Oils:

❌ Have a Shorter Self-Life
❌ Typically More Expensive (you get what you pay for)

Best Cold-Pressed Oils:

🟢 Olive Oil (for dressings and dips)

🥥 Coconut Oil (for smoothies and RAW treats)

🥑 Avocado Oil (in salad dressings)

🟤 Flaxseed Oil (refrigerated and drizzled over salads)

🌿 Hemp Oil (refrigerated and omega-rich oil for dressings)

NOTE:  If the Label doesn't Clearly say: Cold-Pressed, Unrefined, Organic, Leave it on the Shelf! 

Expeller-Pressed Oils

Expeller-Pressed Oils are also Mechanically Extracted however, at much Higher Temperatures, sometimes exceeding 200°F due to Friction during Pressing.

Even though they may sound natural, this Heat Destroys the Delicate Nutrients and Alters the Oil’s Molecular Structure.

Concerns with Expeller-Pressed Oils:

❌ Nutrient Loss due to High Heat Damage

❌ May Contain Trans Fats

❌ Oxidation and Potential Tancidity

❌ Often Refined or Bleached Afterward

❌ Can Contribute to Inflammation in the Body

❌ Contain Chemicals and Anti-Foaming Agents

❌ Longer Shelf-Live due to Preservatives

❌ Are Odorless and Tasteless

❌ Less Heart-Healthy

❌ Cost Less due to all of the above

Examples of Expeller-Pressed Oils: 

🌽
Canola Oil

🌻 SunFlower Oil

🥜 Peanut Oil

🍇 Grape Seed Oil

🟠Sesame Oil

NOTE: Olive Oil, Coconut, Avocado, Flaxseed, Hemp, Pumpkin, Almond, Walnut, and Macadamia Nut can all be Expeller-Pressed.

It's important to READ LABELS and SHOP for: Cold-Pressed, Unrefined, Organic.

🛑 Sneaky Labels to Watch Out For:

Companies often use Misleading terms.

Here are Red Flags:

🚩Mechanically Pressed (without temperature info)

🚩Naturally Pressed (vague and unregulated)

🚩Semi-Cold Pressed (usually involves heat exposure)

🚩Expeller-Pressed, Refined (double processing and nutrient loss)

If it doesn’t clearly say Cold-Pressed, Unrefined, Organic, Leave it on the Shelf!

Why Buying Cold-Press Quality Oils Matter

Our Skin is a Mirror of what’s happening Inside our Body.

COLD-Pressed Oils support Healthy Cell Membranes, Reduce Inflammation, and Boost Hydration — helping us GLOW Naturally!

They also Nourish our Brain, Promoting Mental Clarity and Focus and are Heart Healthy Fats.

EXPELLER-Pressed and Refined Oils, on the other hand, can lead to Oxidative Stress, Dull Skin, Breakouts, Sluggish Digestion, and Brain Hog.  They also do not Support Heart Health.

RAWmazing Tips for Buying the Best Oils:

✅ Always look for “Cold-Pressed, Unrefined, Organic” on the label.

✅ Whenever Possible Up-Level even More by buying "RAW, Extra-Virgin"

✅ Avoid clear bottles as Oils Oxidize in Light; Dark Glass is Best.

✅ Store Oils in a Cool, Dark Place; Refrigerate Flax and Hemp Oils.

✅ Check the Expiration Date and Buy Small Bottles for Freshness.

Bottom Line:

Oils can be POWERful Healers or Silent Saboteurs.

Choose to honor our Bodies with Pure, COLD-Pressed Oils that FUEL our Vibrant Living.

Our Skin will GLOW, our Energy will Rise, and our MINDset will stay Focused.

REMEMBER:

✅ COLD-Pressed = Pure and Fresh, Nature's Best

❌ EXPELLER-Pressed = Heat and Stress, Nutrients Less

Always Choose Quality Over Convenience – Our Health Deserves It!

However, we must know what we are doing. And if we want to get to our Optimum Shape correctly, we hire a Personal Trainer or Coach, to show us the proper way how to do our Workout so we can attain our Goal more Efficiently.

In order to Create the Lives we want, we must Exercise our MIND regularly by Monitoring, Creating, Directing and Controlling the Thoughts we want to Think.

This is attained in an Efficient and Effective manner by hiring a MINDset Shifter to Coach us to SHIFT our MINDset properly.
