Health Benefits

Oils, you can’t live with them?, you certainly can’t live without them. Oils are essential to good health, and if that’s the case, well, you’d want to put the best oils into your body. But oil’s oil you say? Not so fast! That’s why we at Yoda-UK are endeavoring to educate you to the best of our ability. That’s why our slogan is ‘Create Healthy Oils At Home’.

Not all oils are created equally. Yes, many of them use healthy ingredients, but it’s how they are extracted and what is used in the process of extraction. Take sunflower oil for example. Vast quantities of sunflowers are spun in a centrifuge with hexane, a by product of the petroleum industry; the maximum amount of oil is extracted then separated at the end leaving the sunflower oil tainted with hexane. It doesn’t seem so appealing all of a sudden and healthy! Well, I’ll let you decide.

It’s important to note, not all sunflower oil is extracted this way and good quality oils will say this on the label. It’s all down to how it’s marketed, but if you are concerned AND observant, you’ll look into it and read the label. So, there’s also the situation that the actual oil itself can long term end up toxic to your body. Take cottonseed oil for example. It contains natural ingredients that are beneficial, but it also contains a toxin called ‘Gossypol’ and yet the cottonseed oil is put into many edible products and cosmetics which means you could be poisoned consuming the oil and then absorbing through the skin.

So, as you can see, it’s very important to get educated and act on the information. This is why Yoda-UK offer the solution by encouraging you to create your own oils at home. You’ll have the knowledge that your oil will not only be fresh but also you’ll be getting all the benefits of the seed oils and the pulp can also be used in various other ways so nothing gets wasted.

Hopefully, as we journey through the blog together, you’ll get ideas and solutions to change your lifestyle for the better.

It’s always better, together.
