Product Description
Medicinal value
In terms of medicinal use, avocado oil can inhibit nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), exerting anti-inflammatory effects. The triterpenoid alcohol cinnamic acid esters and acetic esters in avocado oil have anti-inflammatory and cancer-preventing properties. Avocado oil is effective in treating inflammation (such as arthritis). Compared with petrolatum and lanolin, avocado oil has numerous advantages as a medicinal excipient, especially for the production of ointments, creams, and emulsions. At the same time, avocado oil also has the function of promoting the release of drugs and facilitating their absorption by the skin.
