Woodpressed Black Kalonji Oil

Product Details

Made from 100% premium apricot kernels.

The Apricot Oil is extracted from premium quality apricot kernels, using a wooden mortar and pestle machine applying wooden pressure. The temperature is kept below 50 degrees C and RPM less than 10 to avoid any heat generation. Whatever minimal heat is generated, is absorbed by the wooden pestle and not transferred to the oil. This helps the oil to retain its natural flavor, aroma, and nutritional profile. The oil is allowed to stand for two days to let the sediments settle down.

The obtained oil is thick, opaque, aromatic, and as natural as it can be. It is free from any chemical or heat treatment or any preservatives, unlike refined oils.

Nutrients : Oleic acid and gamma linoleic acid, Vitamin E, A K & C

By supporting joint health and reducing inflammation, apricot oil can play a role in preventing or managing arthritis symptoms.

2. Helps in Treating Asthma
The anti-inflammatory properties of apricot oil can be beneficial for individuals with asthma.

Additionally, apricot oil's antioxidant content supports overall lung health and may help reduce the frequency and severity of asthma attacks.

3. Produce new skin cell & radiates skin
Apricot oil is rich in vitamins A and E, which are essential for skin health. Vitamin A promotes the production of new skin cells, improving skin texture and tone. Vitamin E, an antioxidant, nourishes and softens the skin while protecting it from environmental damage. Regular application of apricot oil can help achieve a radiant, glowing complexion by enhancing skin cell regeneration and overall skin hydration.

4. Repairs Signs of Aging 
The antioxidants in apricot oil, including vitamins A and E, combat free radicals and oxidative stress that contribute to skin aging. By neutralizing these harmful molecules, apricot oil helps to repair existing signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles. Its protective properties also shield the skin from further damage, maintaining a youthful appearance and supporting skin elasticity.

5. Improves hair health
Apricot oil is an excellent moisturizer for the scalp due to its high fatty acid content. It alleviates excess dryness and flakiness, which can lead to hair fall. The oil’s nutrients strengthen hair follicles, improve circulation to the scalp, and provide essential vitamins for healthy hair growth. Regular use of apricot oil helps reduce hair fall, promote stronger and thicker hair, and maintain overall scalp health.

Wood-pressed apricot oil offers a range of benefits, from supporting joint and respiratory health to enhancing skin and hair care. Its rich content of antioxidants and essential fatty acids makes it a valuable addition to a holistic health and beauty regimen.
