5 Health Benefits of Pure Cow Ghee

The first thing that comes to our minds when we think of cow ghee is decadence – hot fresh rotis slathered with ghee, various dals, and khichdi with a dollop of ghee adding to their visual appeal and the famous ‘ghee ka tadka’. Let’s not forget the winter goodies like halwas that are loaded with the richness of ghee. 

Today, places such as Wingreens World have made buying pure cow ghee online from their organic food and beverage collection a breeze. However, until a few years ago, pure cow ghee was made at home via a tedious process of skimming the cream off the milk for days, making butter from it, and then converting that to ghee. 

While some people believed ghee was heavy, over the years this image has diminished and the goodness of ghee has been brought to light. From an Indian staple, ghee gained the status of a global superfood due to its goodness and high nutrient value. People across the world have started having ghee empty stomach in the mornings, adding it to their coffee and it is a favourite among people who follow the Keto diet. 

Pure ghee is made of cow's milk and comprises omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamin A and has a special place beyond our kitchens, in hair care and beauty rituals too. Cow ghee that had once been side-lined by vegetable refined oils is now making a comeback due to the following health benefits:

Nutrient-rich: Cow ghee is a rich source of antioxidants and multiple vitamins - A, D, E & K which enable regular cellular function and growth. The antioxidants present in it prevent radical damage that causes cardiac illnesses and some types of cancer. When we include cow ghee in our diet, we enhance our nutritional requirements and protect ourselves from various diseases.

Provides warmth from within: Ghee is a key part of Indian winters. When you ingest ghee, you remain warm from within. This is the reason ghee is extensively used in winter food preparations such as pinnis, gajar ka halwa, panjeeri, and moong dal halwa. 

 Improves digestion: Cow ghee revitalizes digestive enzymes’ secretion that is required to break down food easily, thereby ensuring a healthy gut. Cow ghee gets metabolized fast making it easy for absorption by the body. It regularizes the bowel movement, thereby preventing constipation. 

 Supports bone health: Cow ghee is the most sought-after base to prepare any medicine in Ayurveda as it reaches the deepest human body tissues and provides nourishment. It also enhances the strength and density of bones, improving overall bone health. It provides relief from stiffness, joint pains by acting as a lubricant and also help alleviate arthritic symptoms. 

 Immunity booster:  Cow ghee being a rich source of antioxidants, acts as an immunity booster as it averts the free radicals from generating in our bodies. These free radicals cause chronic health disorders such as cardiac illnesses, inflammatory disorders, cataracts, and other diseases. Especially during times such as now when the world is going through a pandemic, our immunity is supremely important.
