Ghee for Weight Loss
Ghee is butter that has been clarified in an easy process, eliminating the hard-to-digest, cholesterol-forming milk solids.
Ghee for Deficiency
Ghee is one of the most important medicines in Ayurveda because it is easy to digest and
ojas building. Rich with the power of ojas, ghee is excellent for building strong, hearty tissue. Consuming ghee helps the body to become more tender and nourishes depleted tissue. Ghee is a rasayana (tonic) for sexual organs and an aphrodisiac. This superfood reaffirms the healing power of fats to skeptics. For instance, a little bit of fats calms the liver when it is deficient, and comforts the nervous system by supporting the myelin sheath.
Ghee for Cleansing
Ghee is useful in cleansing and in the detoxifying process of panchakarma because it pulls fat-soluble toxins into circulation. It also improves fat metabolism. Ghee in the duodenum reduces acid secretion, aiding hyper-acidic related digestive disorders.

buying & preparation
Buy organic ghee only. Ghee is highly concentrated and thus also concentrates toxins if made from impure ingredients. You can make your own
homemade ghee or purchase it from most health food and Indian grocery stores. The water is boiled out of ghee, so it doesn't need to be refrigerated. To care for ghee, avoid putting dirty utensils into the ghee. Even a droplet of water could cause mold to form. Since the water has been boiled out of the ghee, it doesn't need to be refrigerated.

cooking
From cookies to mashed potatoes, cook healthier by substituting ghee for butter in any recipe. The French are known for toasting clarified butter, giving their desserts a nutty aroma. Ghee is versatile because it absorbs the flavors and qualities of ingredients cooked with it. It is a wonderful cooking oil because it has a high smoke point - up to 458 F. Ghee changes from a solid to a liquid depending upon the ambient temperature. When measuring ghee always measure in liquid form because the volume changes significantly.

Dear John, Is it better to cook with ghee or to add in the end of cooking? I toss the spaces on dry pan and than cook with water or steaming. Does cooking in ghee cause weight gain?

Fats are required in your diet. As a fat, ghee can help you gain weight, but is much lighter than other fats, such as butter. You can cook with ghee or add it after cooking - the effect is equivalent. I usually fry the spices in the ghee, instead of dry roasting them.
