Its biochemical components are all considered for their beneficial effects on health. ARGAN OIL VIRGIN is rich in essential unsaturated fatty acids like Oleic and Linoleic. Its biochemical analysis can be compared with that of Olive Oil; however, Argan Oil is richer in Linoleic (Omega 6) and Tocopherol which are the most important features. Essential fatty acids have a very important biological roll in help to avoid early ageing and the loss of skin elasticity. Linoleic Fatty Acid is one of the most wanted polyunsaturated essential fatty acids. It represents one third of the total composition of Argan virgin oil. Tocopherols, including Vitamin E ( -tocopherol), are the second most important components of ARGAN OIL VIRGIN: **0 mg/kg (against **0 mg/kg for Olive oil). Vitamin E also may delay the cellular ageing by its action on the reduction of the membrane susceptibility against oxidation.
