kiwi seed oil

back to ingredient overview

Cold pressed kiwi seed oil contains over 60% alpha linolenic acid; an essential omega 3 fatty acid which helps our skin retain moisture and prevents drying and scaling. The body also uses the fatty acids to help maintain the proper wall flexibility of cells and restore the proper cholesterol /triglyceride ratio. This keeps our cell membranes soft and pliable, facilitating receptors in the membrane to work to bring vital compounds to regulate the cell and to provide easy entry for oxygen and nutrients and an efficient exit for carbon dioxide and wastes. It is a classic anti aging iand an important dermatitis formulation ingredient.

It is also rich in phytonutrients, minerals (potassium and magnesium) and vitamins C & E. The Omega 3 content of Kiwi Seed Oil makes it a useful ingredient in the treatment of dry skin problems and therefore it should be considered for any formulation for healing dry, damaged skin.
