While a significant amount of ghee made and sold in India is made from buffalo milk butter, only ghee made from cow’s butter (must be grassfed!) has religious significance. On a broad level, grassfed ghee is said to encourage fat metabolism and weight loss due to the high levels of Tonalin CLA, supports stable moods and consistent energy levels, and boosts the body’s natural defenses against harmful bacteria. Ghee is also loaded with essential items like butyric acid, an essential component to a healthy digestive tract.
