Naturally Asked Questions

Is high-oleic sunflower oil gluten-free?

Absolutely! High-oleic sunflower oil is naturally gluten-free, making it a safe option for individuals with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease. It is a versatile cooking oil that can be used for frying, baking, and as a salad dressing without altering the taste of your food.

High-oleic sunflower oil vs. vegetable oil

High-oleic sunflower oil is a specific type of oil rich in monounsaturated fats, whereas vegetable oil is a generic term for oils derived from plant sources and can include a variety of oils such as soybean, canola, and corn oil. Vegetable oil is comparatively unstable when heated, only suitable for pan-frying (with oil being used only once) and not for deep frying when oil is used repeatedly. The health benefits and cooking stability of vegetable oil can vary depending on the type, making high-oleic sunflower oil a more reliable and healthier choice.

High-oleic sunflower oil vs. olive oil

Both high-oleic sunflower oil and olive oil are rich in monounsaturated fats and offer heart health benefits. However, high-oleic sunflower oil stands out for its versatility in cooking and neutral taste, allowing it to be used in a variety of dishes without altering or overpowering the foods’ original flavour. When compared to olive oil, high-oleic sunflower oil is a more adaptable option for different culinary applications, making it a valuable addition to any kitchen.

High-oleic sunflower oil vs. rapeseed oil

High-oleic sunflower oil and rapeseed oil are both heart-healthy options rich in unsaturated fats. However, high-oleic sunflower oil has a higher oleic acid content, contributing to its cooking stability and longer shelf life. It is also versatile in recipes and has a neutral flavour, making it suitable for various cooking methods. While rapeseed oil is low in saturated fat and contains omega-3 fatty acids, the adaptability and stability of high-oleic sunflower oil make it a preferable choice for many culinary needs.

How long does high-oleic sunflower oil last once opened?

High-oleic sunflower oil has a longer shelf life compared to regular sunflower oil due to its high oleic acid content, which makes it more stable. Once opened, it should be stored in a cool, dark place and ideally used within six months to a year for the best quality, although it may remain safe to use beyond this period if stored properly.

Which is better for high cholesterol, olive oil or sunflower oil?

An analysis of data from dozens of studies reveals that replacing saturated fat in the diet with unsaturated fat reduces low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Oleic acid in high-oleic sunflower oil has been found to lower blood pressure and cholesterol. Oleic acid has also been found to raise HDL (good) cholesterol, fight inflammation and fight the effects of free radicals in the body.
