Characteristics
A novelty in our portfolio of edible oils is avocado oil produced in the region Limpopo in South Africa. Avocado fruits are grown under the stringent supervision from the seeds up to the ripe fruits, which are then manually collected.
Thanks to its high smoke point (250 °C), it has universal application, e.g. for baking, frying and even grilling. The oil can also be used for salads and marinades. Avocado oil is a healthy and tasty alternative to everyday preparation of meals.
The oil is noted for its typical golden-yellow colour with a touch of green and a delicate nutty flavour.
Avocado oil is rich in minerals, polyunsaturated fatty acids (α-linolenic and linoleic) and monounsaturated fatty acids reducing the LDL cholesterol level. The avocado oil contains a large quantity of vitamin E, which inhibits rancidification of unsaturated fatty acids and, together with omega-3 and omega-6, has strong antioxidant properties. It protects vessels, which become stronger and more flexible and can then react more effectively to changes of blood pressure. Regular consumption of the oil can reduce risks of onset of thrombosis. Oleic acid assists in prevention of absorption of cholesterol and triglycerids into the blood circulation. The avocado oil also reduces occurrence of tooth plaque and strengthens the gums.
Vitamins A, D and E, contained in the avocado oil, contribute to regeneration of skin cells. Vitamins A and E have strong antibacterial and healing properties in incised wounds or acne. The avocado oil has positive effects in case of prostatic problems.
