The high smoke point of ghee (485°F / 250°C) makes it ideal for deep frying, roasting, and sauteing.
Promotes digestive health
Consuming ghee benefits gut health due to its butyrate content. The short-chain and medium-chain fatty acids in ghee are considered good fats for your brain.
Rich in fat-soluble vitamins
Ghee is loaded with vitamins A, D, E, and K, which boost immunity, skin, vision, and bone health.
Lactose and casein-free
Ghee is considered an ideal cooking oil if you are lactose intolerant. There is less lactose and casein (a milk protein) in ghee.
Ghee is good for the heart
Although it is rich in saturated fats, which can increase the level of good cholesterol, the conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in Desi cow ghee may have anti-inflammatory effects, so eating ghee in moderation is considered good.
Support brain function
In Ayurveda, ghee is considered a desi tonic, believed to give mental clarity and enhance memory and concentration.
Balance vata and pita dosh
In Ayurveda cooking, ghee is considered pure or satvik, allowing for balancing doshas.
