Living Oils are to common vegetable oil what sprouts are to seeds and nuts. Sprouts are already widely known as a nutritious living food.  In the life cycle of a plant, seeds and nuts are the time capsules of future generations of plants.  These tiny storehouses hold the blueprint and nutrients it needs to grow.  A seed can survive for many years in this dormant state, it’s nutrients locked away and protected from digestion by animals, for the purpose of distribution.  When the conditions are right, the seed awakens from its slumber and the preserved nutrients begin to transform into food.  This process is called germination and is the key difference between vegetable oils, as we have known them, and Living Oils.

Germinating the seeds prior to extracting the oil, provides a completely different oil, one which we have found to be smoother in taste, bursting with subtle flavors and more desirable to the body.  Like most raw foods, it has a shorter shelf life than its more preserved counterpart and should be refrigerated.

We have found sunflower seeds to yield one of the best Living Oils to bring out the flavors in raw and low temperature cooking, for use as a massage oil, as a skin ointment and to moisturize hair. We welcome your questions, comments and ideas!
