Sekkadi Wood-Pressed Oils: Ancestral Wisdom for Modern Wellness
At Sekkadi, we believe that the most advanced nutrition isn’t found in a lab—it’s found in our heritage. We’ve revived the traditional Vaagai Marachekku (wooden press) method to bring you 100% artisanal, wood-pressed oils. By rejecting industrial heat and chemical solvents, we preserve the "living" nutrients and raw antioxidants of premium country seeds, delivering pure, uncorrupted health to your table.
Revitalize Your Daily Pantry
The foundation of a healthy lifestyle starts with the fats you cook with every day. Swap out nutrient-stripped, refined oils for Sekkadi’s living, wholesome staples:
Pure Wood-Pressed Groundnut Oil: The ultimate everyday culinary partner, prized for its high-heat stability and rich, traditional aroma.
Pure Wood-Pressed Coconut Oil: A versatile superfood for clean dietary energy, and a natural, deep-conditioning treatment for skin and hair.

The Vaagai Marachekku: A 100% Zero-Heat Promise
Commercial oil extraction relies on high-speed steel machinery and petrochemicals like hexane, creating extreme heat that destroys a seed's vital vitamins.
Sekkadi does things differently. Our wooden press naturally absorbs friction, ensuring a genuine zero-heat extraction. Following ancient alchemy, we crush our seeds alongside pure Karupatti (palm jaggery). This prevents oxidation naturally and locks in a robust profile of minerals and Vitamins D, E, and K.
Targeted Healing with Gingelly Oil
Incorporating Sekkadi Gingelly Oil into your daily routine offers whole-body support:
Heart & Metabolic Health: Packed with 82% unsaturated fatty acids, it supports healthy cholesterol management and blood sugar stability.
Mood & Stress Relief: Naturally rich in the amino acid tyrosine, which fuels the production of Serotonin—helping you naturally manage stress and find balance.
Joint & Muscle Care: Loaded with organic zinc and copper, it is the premier choice for Abhyanga massage to soothe inflammation and lubricate stiff joints.
Oral Detoxification: The gold standard for Gandusha (oil pulling). Swishing a tablespoon daily draws out bacteria, promoting stronger gums and a cleaner mouth.
100% Transparent Nutrition
Because our oils skip the industrial refining process, they remain a dense, functional superfood. A standard 100-gram serving of our pure Gingelly oil yields 899 kcal of clean energy:
45g Heart-Healthy Monounsaturated Fats
38g Essential Polyunsaturated Fats
0g Trans Fats & 0g Dietary Cholesterol
Why the Sediment? If you notice a cloudy layer at the bottom of your bottle, celebrate it! That sediment is the ultimate proof of authenticity—the raw micronutrients that commercial refineries strip away.
