What is ghee?

Ghee is a traditional and sacred food and a staple of Ayurvedic medicine, an ancient tradition of medicine which prioritizes the healing powers of food. . It is essentially pure caramelized butter oil.

What are the health benefits of ghee?

Ghee made from cultured butter from the milk of grass-fed cows is exceptionally healthy! It is loaded with vitamins A, D, E, and K. It is also rich in butyric acid helpful for supporting healthy gut microbiomes & balanced gastrointestinal system. Ghee made from organic butter sourced from pasture-raised cows is also a natural source of conjugated linolenic acid (CLA), which is indicated to slow the progression of heart disease and some types of cancer. Ghee sourced from pastured cows additionally contains Omega 3 and Omega 9 fatty acids, which most people are generally deficient in. These fatty acids have been indicated as crucial to proper hydration, literally helping our cells to retain more water. Ghee is remarkably bioavailable, long prized for increasing nutrient absorption of fat-soluble vitamins and minerals from the foods and herbs with which it is paired. Actually able to pass through the lipid membranes of our cells, the nutrients that accompany foods and herbs cooked in, paired with, or infused into ghee can penetrate deeply into our bodies. For this reason, ghee has a long history of being used as a carrier oil (menstruum) for medicinal, herbal preparations. 

How long will Goddess Ghee remain shelf stable?

Once opened if ghee is sealed well and doesn't acquire moisture it will keep without refrigeration for 3 months. If it's kept sealed and refrigerated it will keep for up to a year. We recommend storing in cool, dark, & dry place in the kitchen- like a pantry or shelf and always use a clean, dry utensil.
