Yumify A2 Sahiwal Bilona Ghee vs Regular Homemade Ghee: What’s the Difference and Why It Matters
For generations, ghee has held a special place in Indian kitchens — not just as a cooking ingredient but as a sacred food in rituals, ayurvedic medicines, and home remedies. While most of us grew up relishing homemade ghee made from malai (cream), there’s been a growing conversation around Bilona Ghee — a traditional, nutrient-rich, and medicinally valuable variety of ghee.
So what makes Yumify A2 Sahiwal Bilona Ghee different from the regular homemade ghee you prepare in your kitchen? Is it really worth the hype? Let’s explore.
🌿 What is Bilona Ghee?
Bilona ghee is made using an ancient, time-honored method where curd is churned using a wooden beater called a bilona, to separate out butter, which is then gently simmered on a slow flame to produce ghee. This traditional hand-churned technique preserves the purity and nutrient value of ghee far better than modern, mass-produced or shortcut homemade versions.
Even today, in places where ayurvedic practices and traditional diets are followed, bilona ghee is highly prized for its health benefits, healing properties, and superior taste.
🥛 What is Regular Homemade Ghee?
Regular ghee made at home usually involves collecting malai (cream) from milk over several days, then slow-cooking it until the water evaporates and milk solids separate, leaving behind golden ghee. While still healthy and flavorful, this method skips the fermentation (curdling) and churning process that transforms milk’s natural properties into a more bioavailable and therapeutic form.
🐄 What Makes Yumify A2 Sahiwal Bilona Ghee Special?
At Yumify, we take the process a step further by using A2 milk from purebred Sahiwal cows — an indigenous Indian cow breed known for producing highly digestible, nutrient-rich A2 beta-casein protein milk.
Key highlights:
- 100% grass-fed, free-range Sahiwal cows
- No chemicals, preservatives, or additives
- Hand-churned using the bilona method
- Slow-cooked on cow dung fire or low flame for enhanced flavor
- Stored in eco-friendly, food-grade glass jars
This process ensures every spoonful of Yumify A2 Sahiwal Bilona Ghee is packed with bioavailable nutrients, good fats, and medicinal benefits as per ayurvedic tradition.

✨ Health Benefits of Yumify A2 Sahiwal Bilona Ghee
Let’s talk about why this ghee isn’t just another kitchen staple but a true superfood:
✅ 1️⃣ Aids Weight Loss
Bilona ghee is rich in conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) which helps reduce belly fat, regulate metabolism, and balance cholesterol levels. Contrary to popular belief, good fats like this help burn stubborn fat when consumed in moderation.
✅ 2️⃣ Boosts Immunity
A2 bilona ghee is packed with antioxidants, vitamins A, D, E, and K that strengthen your immune system and help fight infections, improve skin health, and support vision.
✅ 3️⃣ Improves Digestion
As per Ayurveda, ghee made via the bilona method kindles the digestive fire (Agni) without aggravating Pitta dosha. It lubricates the intestines, helps absorb fat-soluble nutrients, and soothes inflammation.
✅ 4️⃣ Anti-Cancer Properties
The presence of CLA in bilona ghee is known to have anti-carcinogenic properties. It helps suppress the growth of cancerous tumors and enhances the body’s natural defense mechanism.
✅ 5️⃣ Strengthens Bones & Teeth
Rich in vitamin K2, bilona ghee helps in calcium absorption, keeping bones and teeth stronger, and reducing risks of osteoporosis or dental issues.
