Sunflower oil

Carefully manufactured sunflower oil is a great oil due to its high share in unsaturated fatty acids (linoleic acid) and its high vitamin E content. It supports the healing of skin problems from the inside e.g. with dry skin or greasy skin with a tendency to develop acne. An irritated, eczema prone skin condition will improve as cell regeneration is stimulated. The high vitamin E content supports the regulating effect of the linoleic acid. It is an important cell protection agent which protects the cell membranes against aggressive, chemical compound, so called radicals. Sunflower oil is also perfectly suited to be used in skin care products. Source: Pflanzenöle (Qualität, Anwendung Wirkung von Ruth v. Braunschweig) (plant oils – quality, application, effect)
