In today’s wellness-driven world, more people are turning to natural oils for skincare, haircare, and healthy cooking. But while browsing the shelves or online stores, you might have wondered what’s the real difference between refined and wood pressed almond oil?
At Arth Agro Farms, we believe in transparency and purity. Our Wood Pressed Almond Oil is made using the traditional kachhi ghani process that retains nutrients, aroma, and natural goodness unlike refined oils that lose much of their value during processing.
Let’s break down what’s really inside your bottle and why choosing wood pressed almond oil is a smarter, healthier choice for your body and mind.
1. What Is Refined Almond Oil?
Refined almond oil is produced using industrial methods involving heat, chemicals, and solvents to extract maximum yield from almonds.
While this makes the process faster and cheaper, it destroys natural nutrients like Vitamin E, Omega fatty acids, and antioxidants that make almond oil beneficial in the first place.
The refining process also removes the natural fragrance and flavor, leaving behind a neutral, polished oil that may look clean but lacks authenticity and depth.
In short, refined almond oil is more about appearance and shelf life than genuine nutrition.
2. What Is Wood Pressed Almond Oil?
In contrast, Wood Pressed Almond Oil (also called Kachhi Ghani Badam Tel) is extracted by slowly crushing almonds in a wooden churner at low temperatures a traditional method that keeps nutrients intact.
At Arth Agro Farms, we use this time-honored process to ensure every drop of oil retains its natural aroma, vitamins, and fatty acids.
Because no heat or chemicals are involved, the oil preserves its golden color, rich flavor, and therapeutic properties that have been valued in Ayurveda for centuries.
It’s pure, authentic, and completely safe for skin, hair, and food use.
3. The Hidden Truth About Refining
Most consumers don’t realize that refining involves:
-
Bleaching to make the oil appear lighter
-
Deodorizing to remove natural scent
-
Solvent extraction using chemicals like hexane
-
High-heat treatment that destroys vitamins and enzymes
This process strips away the oil’s natural character and can even leave behind trace residues.
That’s why refined almond oils often feel lighter but don’t deliver long-term nourishment.
In contrast, Arth Agro Farms Wood Pressed Almond Oil is extracted gently ensuring you receive all-natural nutrients in their original form.
4. Nutritional Comparison: Natural Goodness Intact
When you compare refined vs wood pressed almond oil, the difference is clear:
-
Wood Pressed Almond Oil is rich in Vitamin , which helps fight free radicals, slows aging, and keeps skin soft.
-
It retains Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, essential for hair growth and heart health.
-
It contains antioxidants that improve immunity and reduce inflammation.
-
It’s completely chemical-free, making it safe for babies and sensitive skin.
Meanwhile, refined almond oil loses most of these nutrients during chemical treatment.
So, while both may look similar, only one truly nourishes and that’s wood pressed.
