What is Raspberry Seed Oil?
Raspberry seed oil is an oil pressed from the seeds of the raspberry and this oil contains a whopping 83% essential fatty acids. The oil is therefore thick and chewy in consistency and has a reddish-brown color.
Common red raspberries are grown all over the world, and a very large percentage of the berries are pressed into juice. Raspberry seeds, which actually make up a full 10% of the weight of the berry, become just a by-product of the juicing process. It's amazing how one man's trash can become another man's treasure :)
What does raspberry seed oil help with?
The oil has a high content of vitamins C and A, which helps reduce the harmful effects of free radicals in the skin, while also providing great moisture.
Raspberry seed oil is a natural antioxidant and protects against free radicals. Polyphenolic compounds from raspberry seeds are effective antioxidants. It also has superior anti-inflammatory properties compared to other well-known oils such as avocado oil, hazelnut oil and wheat germ oil.
The fatty acids in raspberry seed oil reduce the effects of stress on the skin and can help with eczema, rashes and psoriasis.
