Like any other cold pressed oils, safflower oil finds both culinary and cosmetic uses worldwide. Funnily enough, it is considered as a cheaper substitute for saffron and is frequently used in traditional Mexican cuisine. The oil is derived from safflower- a drought resistant and low moisture consuming plant that is perfect for regions with low or unpredictable rainfalls. (In India, these areas include the states of Maharashtra, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh).
Also, its high concentration of fats are best for your daily cooking needs as compared to commercially used refined oils such as sunflower. And the best part ! It is every bit as healthy as the more marketed olive oil and canola oil but is cheaper than these two “hip” alternatives. Shopforchange is proud to provide Safflower oil that passes nutritional tests to substantiate our claims and are open to independent verification.

Compared to the other oils, it can be safely used at higher temperatures if you are planning to deep fry, pan frying, or baking.
We recommend that you do not expose the oil to air too long while cooking or reuse the oil for cooking as this causes oxidation. The recommended dietary intake for healthy adults is 6 to 7 tablespoons. Note: Safflower oil has no effect on weight gain due to its high calorie count per tablespoon. (120 calories per tablespoon). Calories are calories, regardless of source or intake.
However, what it will do is increase the satiation and cause you to consume less food subsequently. Use it in moderation for the occasional snacks on your cheat day but don't go overboard.
Like other oils, safflower oil can be used for skin care. A quick look at any skincare product you use will inevitably contain safflower oil or its extracts. The oil can be used to treat acne ( using a face mask of safflower oil and honey) and mild eczema (safflower oil prevents flaking of skin).

Safflower oil has high levels of Linoleic acid and has the highest concentration of mono and poly-unsaturated fat content of all oils (89 grams out of 100 grams of oil) - the good fats you want for your family’s health and a low percentage of saturated (“bad”) fats, containing only 9 gram out of 100 grams, based on lab tests on Shopforchange’s safflower oil (1).

Unfortunately, popular consumer narrative has demonised the safflower oil. Nutrition studies have shown that regular usage of safflower oil can improve cardiovascular health, reduce blood clotting that can lead to heart attacks and strokes. Usage of safflower oil is also associated with improved insulin production and may protect against Type 2 diabetes and associated risk factors (2).
