Ingredients and optimal storage of argan oil?
Its ingredients make the argan oil so valuable for our health. Argan oil, which is extracted from the fruit of the argan tree, contains a unique combination of few saturated and many unsaturated fatty acids, the vitamin E complex and plant sterols. In a bottle of 100 ml of argan oil, 4 out of 5 fats are unsaturated. Polyphenols, linoleic acid, carotenoids, triterpenoids and phytosterols ensure that our skin remains healthy and well supplied with blood and supports the healing process of skin diseases or injuries. While argan oil is only becoming better known here in Germany, in Morocco it has been considered a natural alpine weapon and elixir of life for a very long time.
Storage of healthy argan oil
Since the argan oil is healthy, delicious but also expensive, the optimal storage is very important. Light and air lead to chemical reactions of the argan oil, so that it can become acidic and no longer usable. Experts recommend for the argan oil a dark, dry and cool storage in the refrigerator (to a maximum of 10 ° C). In this way, the argan oil remains in the desired state. Since the production of the argan oil is particularly complex and the resource of the argan oil is limited, the relatively high price is really justified. When buying the argan oil for household, you should make sure that you get 100% pure and cold-pressed argan oil. I can give you this Argan oil from ArgaVital* recommend, because I know the manufacturer personally and know how environmentally friendly the argan oil is produced here.

The argan oil will make your hair visibly shinier and noticeably more elastic. It is simply a great natural remedy for the hair.

Where does the healthy argan oil actually come from?
The argan tree grows exclusively in the southwest of Morocco and nowhere else on the planet. The area of the argan tree is only about 820,000 hectares and is the origin of argan oil. To protect the plant and this unique area, more than 20 million argan trees are protected and were added to the list of biosphere reserves in 1998. In Morocco, as mentioned, argan oil has been considered an elixir of life for many millennia. The increasing demand for argan oil finances the people in the region. However, one must not forget that the production of argan oil from the argan kernels is a very labor-intensive task and the local people earn relatively little from this natural treasure.
