Ghee is a type of clarified butter made by simmering butter to remove the water and milk solids. This process leaves behind a pure, golden fat with a rich, nutty flavor and a high smoke point.
Key benefits of ghee include:
- Gut Health: It contains Butyric Acid, a short-chain fatty acid that helps nourish the cells lining the colon and supports intestinal health.
- High Smoke Point: Excellent for cooking at high heat (like sautéing and frying) as it is less likely to form free radicals compared to many other oils.
- Nutrient-Rich: A good source of fat-soluble vitamins, including A, E, and K, which support eye, skin, and bone health.
- Hypoallergenic: Since milk solids are removed, it contains only trace amounts of lactose and casein, making it generally safe for individuals with most dairy sensitivities.
- Aids Absorption: Traditionally used to enhance the absorption and utilization of nutrients from other foods.
