"Cold pressed" refers to a method of extracting oil or juice from fruits, seeds, or nuts without using heat. This technique helps preserve the natural flavors, nutrients, and enzymes, resulting in a product that retains its original quality. Common examples include cold pressed olive oil and cold pressed juice.
The process involves crushing the raw materials and applying pressure to extract the liquid. Since no heat is involved, the risk of damaging sensitive compounds is minimized. This method is often preferred for its health benefits and is popular among those seeking natural and unprocessed food options.
