macadamia oil
Macadamia often used to produce an oil that is valued throughout the world. Only cold pressing of nuts is practiced, as a result of which valuable palmitic acid is preserved in its original form. Palmitic acid cannot be produced by the human body. In addition to this valuable component, macadamia oil contains the entire chemical composition of the nut itself.
Beneficial features
Macadamia oil, more than any other nut-derived oil, falls under the definition of "a storehouse of nutrients." There are significantly more monounsaturated fats in this oil than in olive oil of very high quality. Cell membranes lose their ability to absorb omega-3 acids without oleic acid, which is exactly what is found in Australian walnut oil.
Macadamia oil is rich in:
- fats: in 1 tsp. - 14 gr.;
- vitamins: A, B, PP, E;
- essential fatty acids: in 1 tsp. - 11 gr.;
- minerals: magnesium, selenium, zinc, iron and calcium.
A balanced ratio of Omega-3 and Omega-6 allows macadamia oil to be one of the main favorites for those who want to eat right, as well as for preventive and therapeutic purposes for cardiovascular diseases, diseases of the joints, muscles and even cancer.
It is recommended to take 1 tsp orally. macadamia oil daily.
Monounsaturated acids make the body more receptive to nutrients and vitamins from the A group.
