Argan Oil comes from the nuts of the Argan tree
(Argania spinosa).This tree is unfamiliar for different folks because it grows
simply in the South Western neighbourhood of Morocco in an vicinity masking
700,000-800,000 hectares. A very good for your health oil is developed by
crushing the nuts of the Argan tree. The remaining portion is used for uses
like cattle feed and for warming.For centuries, Berber female of this
neighborhood have produced argan oil which was used for their consumption and
conventional Moroccan medicine.
Due to its various
medicinal,cosmetic and other wide-ranging properties, argan oil is
evincing a lot of questions among the living abroad residents. The argan tree
is very tolerant in nature and thus can outlast for nearly 200 years. This tree
has adapted itself perfectly to the dry and thirsty weather of the South
Western regions of Morocco. The roots of the Argan tree in order to search for
water go deep in the soil so as to stop soil eroding, keep the soil intact and
inhibits the enlargement of the desert. Argan tree plays a indispensable part
in maintaining the bionomical counterbalance and the economic situation of the
inhabitants. UNESCO added the Argan tree to the World Heritage List in 1999.
In less than a 100
years, more than a third of the argan woods has vanished. The fruits of the
Argan tree are green. They appear like an olive but are bigger and rounder.
Inside, there is a rigid shell nut which represents roughly one quarter of the
flesh fruit weight. The Organic Argan Oil is extracted from
the kernels which are formed within the nut. The making of this oil is a rough
and grueling operation which was until recently completely realized by hand.
The manual scheme consisted in first, extracting the nut of the fruit then
smashed the hard nut's shell to accumulate the kernels. These were roasted by modest
warming and once cooled, ground in a stone rotary quern. A dough is then formed
by mixing the roasted kernels with water. This dough is used to withdraw oil
manually.
Recently preset presses
have been introduced to obtain argan oil. The programmed presses
have reduced the measure of time to extract 1 liter of oil by a considerable
area. The duty of abrasion and extraction is done by the preset presses on the
roasted kernels. The amount of the obtained oil has increased somewhat
substantially by adding no water to the dough and the oil can be stored for an
prolonged time period. The mechanism which eats away a important portion of
time, cracking the nuts is still completed by the human hand. Neither solvent
nor warmth is used for this oil extraction. The extracted Moroccan Argan oil
tastes like nuts and has a darker color than olives.
Produced from the nuts
of the Morrocan Argan tree (Argania spinosa,) argan oil has
many benefits for health and beauty.The Berbers have used it for centuries for
both food and cosmetic purposes, and they call the Argan tree the "Tree of
Life" because of its role in their culture. Sheep, goats and camels eat
the leaves and nuts; they feed cattle the "press-cakes" remaining
after extracting the oil from the nuts; they use the nut shells as fuel; the
Berbers eat the oil from the roasted nuts in their food; and oil from the raw
nuts protects their skin and hair from the harsh conditions of the local
environment.
Argan oil is rich in vitamin E, carotene, phenols
and phenolic acid and has high levels of the essential fatty acids oleic acid
and linoleic acid, as well as several others. It is a natural antioxidant and
anti-inflammatory, and contains two unique plant sterols (schottenol and
spinasterol) not found in other oils. In addition, it is highly moisturizing
and absorbs quickly, making it ideal for hair and skin care.
Argan Oil
for Hair
Argan oil moisturises, strengthens, and smoothes the
hair. It is an excellent choice for use in hot oil treatments. Two or three
drops applied to your brush or comb instead of a hair gel will provide control
and reduce frizziness without the drying effect of the alcohol normally found
in styling products. In fact, it will moisturise and protect your hair from the
daily "insults" of blow-drying, curling or straightening your hair,
as well as combating sun- and pollution-damage.
Research has also
suggested that Argan oil promotes hair growth and prevents hair loss. The Omega
3 and Omega 9 fatty acids penetrate the hair shaft delivering the required
nutrients for stimulating the growth of new hair.
Bio argan Oil For Skin
Argan oil is wonderful for skin care for treating
acne, psoriasis, eczema, stretch marks and brittle nails. It is especially
helpful for mature or dry skin because of the high levels of Squalene it
contains. The natural oil our body produces is composed of 25% squalene, making
Argan oil more easily absorbed than most other oils. It deactivates the free
radical (known as "singlet oxygen") created by exposing the skin to
ultraviolet light, which helps to protect from skin cancer and absorbs and
binds fat soluble toxins, helping to excrete them from the body.
Bioargan Oil For Health
The high levels of
polyphenols in Argan oil give it anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiseptic, anti-allergenic,
and anti-aging properties. They help to repair DNA damage caused by exposure to
cigarette smoke and other toxins, help to detoxify carcinogens by enhancing the
immune response, and promote cell-to-cell communication. The carotene protects the
heart and circulatory system by inhibiting the oxidation of LDL cholesterol,
and the ferrulic acid in the oil reduces cholesterol and triglycerides.
Argan oil is fantastic for our everyday health and
beauty and it would be wise to have a bottle handy.
One of the products I
have tried for my hair and liked so far was Bioargan from Argania Tree. You
