01 Nutrition density: why E
Oil is fat and nothing else: 100 g fat per 100 g, with 0 g protein, 0 g fibre, 0 g sugar and no minerals. With no protein source in the list, the protein tier is the lowest, so nothing earns credit.
No vitamins are declared on the panel, so the vitamin E named on the back of the pack adds nothing to the grade.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why B
The list is one ingredient, sunflower seed oil, with no additives, no hydrogenated fat and no palm oil. That leaves the ingredient grade high, and no label promise on the panel costs points.
The one gap is that no percentage is declared for the oil. The trans fat figure of 0 g is accepted because no hydrogenated fat is listed.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

- Saturated fat
- 11.5 g
- Trans fat
- 0 g
03 Load risk: why 4
Energy is the biggest driver: 900 kcal per 100 g, 126 kcal per tablespoon. Saturated fat adds to it at 11.5 g per 100 g, more than twice the 5 g high line, and 1.61 g per tablespoon.
Sugar, sodium and trans fat are all 0, so they play no part. The risk number of 4 comes down to how concentrated the fat is.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Anveshan Cold Pressed Sunflower Oil live up to its claims?
The single-oil, no-palm-oil and high-PUFA claims hold at 58 g polyunsaturated fat per 100 g. The vitamin E and heart-remedy wording goes beyond what the panel shows.
- Product nameHolds
“Traditionally cold-pressed, wood-pressed”
The list is sunflower seed oil alone, with no additives, which fits a pressed oil. The pressing method itself is the maker's statement and cannot be read from the panel.
- On the packHolds
“High PUFA”
The panel shows 8.12 g polyunsaturated fat in a 14 g tablespoon, about 58 g per 100 g. Saturated fat is 11.5 g per 100 g.
- On the packBe careful
“Retains Vitamin E, phytosterols, antioxidants”
No vitamin or phytosterol amount is declared on the panel, so the claim cannot be checked from the numbers.
- On the packHolds
“No Palm Oil”
The only ingredient listed is sunflower seed oil.
- Retail listingBe careful
“Natural remedy for all your heart problems”
The retailer page makes this claim, and the pack does not. The panel shows 126 kcal and 1.61 g saturated fat per tablespoon, and a cooking oil is not a remedy.

What to know about Anveshan Cold Pressed Sunflower Oil
One ingredient, all fat: 126 kcal a tablespoon
Anveshan Cold Pressed Sunflower Oil is a 1 L bottle (909 g) with one ingredient: sunflower seed oil, labelled free from argemone oil. The pack says it is wood-pressed by farmers in Karnataka from mid-oleic sunflower seeds, and it is aimed at people who want a minimally processed everyday cooking oil. No percentage is declared, since the list is the oil alone.
What you get is a plain fat. One tablespoon (14 g) has 126 kcal, 14 g fat and 1.61 g saturated fat. Per 100 g that is 900 kcal, 100 g fat and 11.5 g saturated fat, split into about 30 g monounsaturated and 58 g polyunsaturated fat. There is no sugar, sodium, protein or fibre, and trans fat is declared as 0 g.
The name and the pack are mostly about how the oil is made, and the ingredient list backs the single-oil part. The vitamin E and heart-health talk goes further than the panel does, since no vitamins are declared. CleanPlate scores it EB4.

Recipes with Anveshan Cold Pressed Sunflower Oil
Use it where the mild flavour helps: a tadka, a stir-fry or a drizzle. Each tablespoon adds 126 kcal, so measure it.
Dal tadka
Heat a measured spoon of oil for the tempering, since each tablespoon adds 126 kcal and the oil carries the flavour.
Stir-fried vegetables
Use the mild-tasting oil for a quick stir-fry and measure it, because the vegetables bring the fibre that the oil lacks.
Salad drizzle
A light drizzle over a salad adds flavour, and its 58 g polyunsaturated fat per 100 g makes up most of the fat.
