Argan oil is food for your skin. Similar to your body’s inherent need for nourishment, your skin must be replenished and fed in order to keep it healthy. Your skin is constantly being deprived of the nutrients needed to maintain its necessary levels of collagen due to age and environmental stress. Argan oil is a natural solution to defend the skin against premature aging and UV exposure.
This innovative product is used in the preparation of delicate, healthy dishes. Culinary argan oil is renowned for its documented health properties. This impressive oil not only appeals to the body through its desired cooking agents, but through its overall health benefits as well. Argan oil can be used as a balanced dietary supply while also protecting the body against cardiovascular disease and inflammatory disorders. Recent clinical studies have shown argan to be an effective means for lowering cholesterol. Create incredible meals that feed the body’s nutritional needs and promote a heart-healthy lifestyle with our culinary argan oil.
Argan oil is exceedingly rich in naturally occurring antioxidants and essential fatty acids, and contains remarkably high levels of vitamin E. Argan oil contains Squalene, a unique and rare component which is suggested to protect against skin cancer. This amazing inventory of active ingredients provides your skin and body with the nutrients it needs to maintain its healthy radiance.
Argan oil is traditionally used for skin, nail, and hair care, cooking, massage and healing. Its chemical composition highlights the interest of many laboratories to use it in their best selling products. The remarkable properties of Argan oil evaluated by numerous laboratories are: restoration of the skin water-lipid layer and an increase of nutrients in the skin cell, stimulation of intracellular oxygen, neutralization of free radicals, and protection of the conjunctive tissue.
Argan oil is 80% unsaturated, comprised of seven essential fatty acids. The most abundant of which are Omega 9 (Oleic acid) and Omega 6 (Linoleic acid). Omega 6 is the most sought after of the poly-unsaturated essential fatty acids. Essential fatty acids protect cellular integrity and affect cell fluidity, helping to prevent loss of moisture from the skin. These essential fatty acids play a vital role in the formation of prostaglandin; a natural anti-inflamatory, that reduces pain, swelling, and inflammation, while also stimulating blood circulation. This vital component makes argan oil ideal for massaging stiff arthritic joints and aching muscles.
Argan oil is exceptionally rich in natural Tocopherols (vitamin E) as well as high molecular weight proteins. The vitamin E found in our oils contributes to the steady development of all bodily systems, protects fat soluble vitamins, and is a powerful anti-oxidant. The abundance of high molecular weight proteins found in our product construct a network of molecules that develops an instant and visible tightening effect.
Our culinary argan oil is a heart-healthy product that promotes sustainable lifestyles while offering a light and delectable taste. In recent clinical trials, the consumption of argan oil has shown to lower cholesterol and reduce cardiovascular risk factors thus defending against the onset of atherosclerosis. The extremely high levels of essential fatty acids and the anti-oxidant effect of vitamin E, sterols, and polyphenols found in our oils are accountable for protecting your heart while endorsing healthy lifestyles.
Essential Fatty Acids are necessary fats that humans cannot synthesize and must be obtained through diet or skin treatments such as Argan Oils. They are building compounds the body needs to manufacture and repair cell membranes, enabling the cells to obtain optimum nutrition and expel harmful waste products. They are necessary for regulating healthy skin and premature aging. These acids perform an important role in the lipid management of the epidermis, sebum production, and are required for the formation of prostaglandin. They all have water-binding, moisturizing and antioxidant properties.
Carotenoids are a class of natural fat-soluble pigments found in plants that serve to protect eyes and skin from UV radiation and free radical damage; to help maintain our immune system; to promote healthy skin and inhibit the growth of cancer cells. They have been shown to lower the risk of arthritis. The class of carotenoids detected in Argan Oils is xanthophylls. They function as an antioxidant and after absorption from food are converted to form vitamin A in the small intestine and stored in the liver. Carotenoids also protect the arteries and heart. Their antioxidant properties help inhibit the oxidation of LDL cholesterol, the “bad cholesterol”, which can lead to build up of plaque in the arteries.
Polyphenols or polyphenolic compounds are natural components of a wide variety of plants and are also known as secondary plant metabolites. They are a group of chemical substances characterized by the presence of more than one phenol unit or building block per molecule. These active compounds are known for their antiseptic, antioxidant, and anti-aging properties. They enhance immune response, enhance cell-to-cell communication, repair DNA damage caused by smoking and other toxic exposures and assist the body to detoxify carcinogens through the activation of the body’s immune system.
Ferulic Acid is the most abundant phenolic compound found in Argan Oils. This antioxidant helps prevent damage caused by ultraviolet light. Exposure to ultraviolet light actually increases the antioxidant potency of ferulic acid. It is often added as an ingredient of anti-aging supplements. Studies have shown that ferulic acid can decrease blood glucose levels and can be of help to diabetes patients. It seems to protect against many types of caner, bone degeneration and menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes. Like many other antioxidants, ferulic acid reduces the level of cholesterol and triglyceride, thereby reducing the risk of heart disease.
Squalene is a nutrient-rich oil. It is a fat-soluble antioxidant with the unique ability to anchor itself to the body’s cell membrane. It can deactivate the free radical known as a singlet oxygen, the free radical that is generated by exposure to the sun’s UV radiation, and can also absorb and bind fat-soluble toxins, helping to excrete them from the body. Squalene is involved in the process of cell growth. It is able to penetrate deeper and more readily than most other oils. Its compatibility with skin lipids can be attributed to the fact that human sebum, the skin’s own moisturizer, is comprised of 25% squalene. It is a natural bactericide and healer. It has been shown to have possible effects in the management of dermatitis and skin cancer.
Sterols (Phytosterols) are a class of lipid-like compounds that helps to prevent skin aging by improving skin metabolism and reducing inflammation. They promote excellent moisture retention and penetrate quickly. They are vital to the structural integrity of the cell membrane. They work in harmony with human skin because the chemical structure of plant sterols and human sterols is very similar. In the skin, human sterols are the main component of its outermost layer and play a fundamental role in aiding and maintaining optimal skin barrier function. Two of the families of sterols found in Argan oil, schottenol and spinasterol, are known for their anticancer properties and are rarely found in vegetable oils. Additionally, sterols are known to block cholesterol absorption sites in the human intestine thus helping to reduce the overall amount absorbed in the body.
Vitamin E (Tocopherol) is a fat-soluble vitamin. It is a powerful antioxidant and excellent free-radical scavenger. Vitamin E protects essential fatty acids and vitamin A levels in the body. It accumulates in the epidermis and forms a barrier against moisture evaporation from the skin. Vitamin E prevents cellular aging due to oxidation, aids in bringing nourishment to cells, and decreases inflammation and strengthens capillary walls. It has been shown to significantly help in the reduction of scarring from wounds and the appearance of stretch marks. Vitamin E’s antioxidant properties help to prevent oxidation of LDL cholesterol, the so called “bad cholesterol”. This may lower the risk of heart disease and stroke. Research has suggested a link between vitamin E and the prevention of certain cancers and degenerative diseases.
