According to Dr. Sudhakar Mhaskar from Marico's Research & Development Center; "This new blend incorporates the nutritive goodness of Kardi Oil & Rice Bran Oil into one. This leads to balanced fat
composition which leads to a superior MUFA/PUFA ratio which significantly enhances the oils ability to maintain a healthy level of total, LDL & HDL cholesterol in the body."
Kardi Oil is high PUFA oil & contains linoleic fatty acids (Omega-6). Dietary PUFA is well researched
and is known to have positive effects on diverse physiological processes such as
regulation of plasma lipid levels, cardio-vascular & immune functions.
Rice Bran Oil has been found to be extremely healthy oil on account of its un-saponifiable content,
which contains tocotrienols, tocopherols and oryanols, which are known to reduce the serum cholester
ol and triglycerides.
The formulation is fortified with Vitamin E which is well known and potent antioxidant.
New Saffola is a blend consisting of Safflower Oil (60%) & Rice Bran Oil (40%), fortified with Vitamin E.
