WHAT IS PERILLA OIL?
Cold-pressed Perilla seed oil is extracted from the seeds of the herb Perilla and it is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids. The content of α-linolenic acid in perilla seed oil is as much as 60% which is much higher than other plant-based oils. α-Linolenic acid is an essential fatty acid for brain and nerve activity but it is not synthesized naturally in the human body. α-Linolenic acid is metabolized into EPA/DHA in the human body which is a nutrient for brain cells and neurons. The multiple health effects of α-linolenic acid include: lower blood cholesterol levels, improve immune response, delay the process of aging, and improve working memory. Therefore α-linolenic acid is considered to be the "gold for the brain in plants” in nutrition.
Also, perilla seed oil is rich in linoleic acid, palmitic acid, oleic acid, and other unsaturated fatty acids and trace elements, providing essential fatty acids for the human body.
Why Cold Pressed?
Cold press compacts seeds between two plates, grinding the seeds at low heat to slowly release their natural oils. Conventional extraction of oils uses high heat to extract the highest amount of oils but in the process kills off valuable minerals and nutrients present in the seeds. We cold-press our ingredients to preserve as much nutritional value as possible to provide the best ingredients possible.
