Quick Reference Table: Best Storage Practices

Storage Factor Recommendation Why It Matters
Container Airtight glass or stainless steel, vacuum pouch Blocks air and moisture
Temperature Cool (15–25°C / 59–77°F), away from heat Slows nutrient loss
Light Dark cupboard/pantry, amber or opaque containers Prevents fading & breakdown
Moisture Absolute dryness; desiccant in humid climates Stops clumping & spoilage
Usage Dry utensils only, reseal after each use Prevents contamination
Shelf Life 6–12 months (label purchase/open date) Ensures peak potency
