Eat Yourself Beautiful with New Zealand’s Emerald Nectar

They say you are what you eat. It follows then that if you want to be beautiful, you should eat beautiful food.

Avocado oil is the emerald nectar that will give you an enviable effervescent glow – from the inside out.

The most nutritionally complete fruit in the world, avocados have long been recognised as an important food source.

Originally from Mexico, there is evidence of them having been used by man for thousands of years BC.

But it is only in recent years that their exceptional nutritional properties have been harnessed and condensed into an accessible everyday product that can be used by anyone, at any time of the year.

Full of the micro-nutrients, vitamins and antioxidants of fresh avocados, Grove Avocado Oil is 100% natural, with no cholesterol or trans fats and only low levels of saturated fats.

In fact it has less saturated fat (13.4%) than olive oil (17.3%) and rice bran oil (17.6%).

And because it is made from New Zealand avocados, it is the healthiest avocado oil in the world.

Avocados contain the plant sterol, beta sitosterol, which is proven to lower cholesterol absorption. As a result of the cooler climate and slower growing rate, New Zealand avocados have higher levels of beta-sitosterol than those grown in warmer countries.

Avocado oil also is also a natural source of Vitamin E and Omega 3 and 6, making it a staple ingredient for a diet that leaves you looking and feeling great.

And avocado oil has the highest smoke point of any extra virgin oil - 271 degrees Celsius (compared to rice bran oil at 254 degrees Celsius and olive oil at 216 degrees Celsius). This means it remains stable during high temperature cooking methods, such as frying, roasting and barbecuing.

New Zealand’s leading avocado oil manufacturer, Grove Avocado Oil first introduced avocado oil suitable for cooking in 2000.

Using state-of-the-art Flotwegg pressing equipment, the oil is gently extracted from the avocados, all the while maintaining low temperatures to minimize potential oxidation of the oil.

Completely pure, it is neither refined, bleached, not deodorised.

But, perhaps best of all, Grove Avocado Oil has a flavour and aroma that is unique to the Bay of Plenty microclimate in which it is produced.

Nutty, buttery, grassy. In dips, marinades, dressings or sauces, it is irresistible.

It’s no wonder its health preserving and culinary qualities have made it a popular cooking ingredient in homes and prestigious restaurants around the world.

What better way to enhance your health and your complexion by enjoying a culinary sensation?
