Sunflower oil: benefits
Although sunflower oil is high in fat, its benefits are many. Some of the advantages that we will see will be for the skin, hair and health. Are you ready to know these benefits?
Cardiovascular benefits
It is one of the most beneficial oils for health, since they reduce the possibility of suffering from cardiovascular diseases and help us to the correct functioning of our organs. This is because it can be up to 80% monounsaturated fat. In addition, it also contains polyunsaturated fats, which is very important in the proper functioning of our heart, and large amounts of choline and phenolic acid.
Reduce the cholesterol
This oil is low in saturated fat and contains phytosterols. What is this? Well, a component that blocks the absorption of cholesterol in the intestines while protecting the heart. In this way, it helps reduce total cholesterol levels.
Beneficial for the skin
This type of oil has great properties that help the skin to:
- Retain moisture.
- Improve the ability to retain hydration, for dry skin.
- In the case of sensitive skin, it can be used as a make-up remover as it does not irritate or damage the dermis.
On the other hand, it reduces the probability of infections or pimples by 14%. In addition, it is rich in vitamins A, C and D and in carotenoids and waxes that are effective against acne.
Prevents frizz and softens hair
Here we leave you another option for using sunflower oil, for your hair! Because it has a light texture, it softens and provides a soft and delicate shine to the hair, while fighting frizz, dryness and breakage. In short, we could use it as a natural conditioner.
On the other hand, sunflower seed oil is rich in gamma alpha linolenic acid (GLA). This component is vital to prevent hair thinning, being used for the treatment of hair loss. And do you know the best of all? It does not smell!
