Cold-Pressed vs. Expeller-Pressed Avocado Oil — What Do You Prefer?

 

If you’ve ever wondered about the difference between cold-pressed and expeller-pressed avocado oil, you’re not alone. I used to, too. Expeller-pressed uses heat from friction during extraction, which can reduce some of the oil’s delicate nutrients and flavor. Cold-pressed, on the other hand, is extracted without heat, preserving more of its natural antioxidants, creamy texture and rich taste. I always reach for the cold-pressed kind. It just feels closer to how nature intended.  Clean, flavorful and full of benefits.
