Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What makes walnut oil suitable for infant formula?
A: Our Infant Formula Grade Walnut Oil undergoes ultra-purification to ensure extremely low peroxide values and contaminants. It provides essential omega-3 ALA in a highly digestible form that meets strict international standards for infant nutrition.
Q2: How does refined walnut oil differ from organic walnut oil?
A: Refined walnut oil has a neutral flavor and higher smoke point, making it suitable for cooking. Organic walnut oil is cold-pressed to retain its natural nutty flavor and higher nutrient content, but has a lower smoke point and is best used unheated.
Q3: What is the optimal storage condition for walnut oil?
A: Store in airtight containers in cool, dark conditions (below 15°C). Refrigeration is recommended, especially for organic and infant grade variants, to prevent oxidation of the delicate omega-3 fatty acids.
Q4: Are your walnut oils allergen-free?
A: While our processing removes most proteins, walnut oil is derived from tree nuts and may not be suitable for individuals with walnut allergies. We recommend consulting with healthcare professionals for specific allergy concerns.
Q5: Why choose walnut oil over other omega-3 sources?
A: Walnut oil provides a unique 4:1 ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids, which is considered optimal for human health. It also contains valuable antioxidants and phytosterols not found in many other oil sources.
Q6: Can walnut oil be used for high-temperature cooking?
A: Our refined walnut oil can be used for medium-heat cooking (up to 200°C). For high-temperature cooking, we recommend using oils with higher smoke points and better thermal stability.
Q7: What certifications do you have for organic walnut oil?
A: Our Organic Walnut Oil carries both USDA Organic and EU Organic certifications, guaranteeing that no synthetic pesticides or fertilizers were used in cultivation and processing.
Q8: How quickly should walnut oil be consumed after opening?
A: For optimal quality, we recommend consuming within 3-4 months after opening, provided it's stored properly in refrigeration with minimal exposure to air and light.
Q9: Can I use walnut oil in cosmetic formulations?
A: Yes, walnut oil is excellent for cosmetics due to its high antioxidant content and good skin absorption. It's particularly suitable for anti-aging products, moisturizers, and hair care formulations.
Q10: Do you provide technical documentation for regulatory compliance?
A: Yes, we provide comprehensive technical documentation including Certificates of Analysis, fatty acid profiles, and regulatory compliance statements to support your product registration and labeling requirements.
