FAQ

Is this walnut oil safe for people with tree nut allergies?

No. Walnuts are a tree nut, and this cold-pressed oil retains natural walnut proteins. Anyone with a tree nut allergy should avoid this product and consult an allergist before considering any walnut-derived oil, whether for cooking or topical use.

Why does this walnut oil need refrigeration when other Kaizer oils don't?

This oil has an exceptionally high polyunsaturated fat content (70.4% PUFA), driven by linoleic acid (52.6%) and linolenic acid (10.4%). Polyunsaturated fats oxidize more readily than the monounsaturated fats found in oils like almond or olive oil, which is why refrigeration for occasional use helps preserve freshness and prevent rancidity.

Is walnut oil a good source of omega-3?

Yes. At 10.4% linolenic acid (omega-3), this walnut oil has one of the higher omega-3 concentrations in the Kaizer range, making it one of the more distinctive plant-based sources of omega-3 fatty acids alongside its higher omega-6 content.

Why does walnut oil have such a low smoke point (160°C) compared to other cold-pressed oils?

Walnut oil's low smoke point is a natural result of its high polyunsaturated fat content, which is more heat-sensitive than the fat profiles found in oils like almond (230°C) or avocado (270°C). This is why walnut oil is best suited to cold or gentle cooking applications rather than high-heat frying.
