WE HAVE OIL! We recently started carrying Algae oil and Olive Oil. Let's talk about why! Long read ahead...
The oils we cook with and prepare our food with are incredibly important to our overall health. They can either be inflammatory or anti-inflammatory and the oils at the store can vary greatly in quality.
Did you know a study conducted by UC Davis found that 82-89% of avocado oil and avocado oil-based products sold in the U.S were rancid or adulterated with cheaper seed oils. A follow-up study published in Applied Food Research tested 54 processed food items such as salad dressings, mayo, crackers and chips labeled as using solely avocado oil. That study found that 89% showed chemical profiles inconsistent with pure avocado oil. This is why we've made the switch to Algae Oil.
We're now carrying Algae oil by the Algae Cooking Club.
*Eco-Friendly made from micro-algae
*High Smoke Point of 535 degrees
*Completely neutral and tasteless profile
*RANCID RESISTANT due to significantly higher oxidative stability
To top it all off it's incredibly high in omega-9 fatty acids. 25% percent higher than avocado oil to be exact. Omega 9 fatty acids support cardiovascular health, blood sugar balance, improve insulin sensitivity, metabolic function and reduce inflammation.
NEXT..... Olive Oil: Full Disclosure, we are particularly passionate about our Olive Oil.
What makes olive oil so great of us? Well a couple of things: Rich omega 9 content, powerful antioxidants such as polyphenols and strong anti-inflammatory properties. The specific olives used in your olive oil determine every single one of those things.
Industry data suggests about 80-90% of olive oils on the U.S market have a total polyphenol content of 50-250mg/kg. Olive oils containing 300mg/kg or more of polyphenols represent a small minority of globally available oils that are considered exceptional and artisan. Polyphenols are powerful antioxidants that neutralize harmful free radicals at about 10 times the rate of Vitamin E.
Estimates also suggest about 80-90% of mass-market domestic and imported olive oil sold in the U.S is multi-origin, meaning olives from multiple countries and regions are mixed together by commercial bottlers. These oils often only list the regions the olives came from, but not the types used. Single origin or single country olive oils account for a very small percentage of oils on the U.S market. Different types of olives vary in nutritional quality affecting what the oil can be doing for you.
