How is prunus persica kernel oil made?
The production of peach kernel oil begins with the harvesting of peaches. After the fruits are harvested, the pits are carefully removed and dried. The process involves extracting the oil from the pits, which is usually done by cold pressing. Cold pressing preserves the nutrients and flavors, which contributes to the high quality of the oil. After pressing, the oil can be further filtered to remove any impurities and improve clarity. This results in a clear, golden yellow oil that is rich in valuable components and has a long shelf life, which is essential for use in various industries.
The function of peach kernel oil
Peach kernel oil is known for its powerful effects on the skin and hair. Its high content of unsaturated fatty acids, such as oleic and linoleic acids, makes it an excellent moisturizer. These fatty acids help to strengthen the skin barrier, making it better able to retain moisture. Peach kernel oil also contains a significant amount of vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin from damaging free radicals and slows down the aging process. The oil also helps to relieve inflammation and irritation, making it ideal for those with sensitive skin or skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.
