sunflower oil is a very valuable oil and must not be brought from far away. It grows in our immediate surroundings!
The sunflower is originally from North America and was cultivated as early as three to four thousand years ago by the natives, long before the discovery of America. With the English pioneers, they probably came to Europe and is now one of the most important oil suppliers.
Unfortunately I have often felt that the sunflower oil is a little the "lobby" is missing, for example, the olive oil. Many people do not know how many valuable unsaturated Fatty acids especially linoleic acid, are contained in sunflower oil. Also know it from a high vitamin E content. In my seminars, I have to even find that most participants did not smell like a cold-pressed sunflower oil and tastes. Usually it is bought in transparent plastic bottles in the discount stores for a few cents. These are but a refined product! (more about that soon in this blog)
linoleic acid is a double-unsaturated fatty acid, this has a positive effect on the skin and the mucous membrane of the intestine. It provides a clear arteries and a balanced cholesterol levels.
Vitamin E is generally a good Cell-protective agent.
as cooking oil, it is particularly valuable when there are still mixed with vegetable oils, which oleic acid (monounsaturated) and alpha-linolenic acid mix (such as olive oil, rapeseed oil, linseed oil, etc.). It supports the function of the intestine and the immune system, promotes healing from within the various skin problems, as it exerts on the cell renewal of the skin has a positive influence.
For skin care, it is mixed with vegetable oils that are slightly longer shelf life, such as jojoba oil, shea butter, coconut oil, etc.
also for use as Ölziehkur is an excellent basis:
100 ml sunflower oil
3 drops peppermint (Mentha piperita)
ct 2 drops of thyme. linlalool (Thymus vulgaris)
3 drops Manuka (Leptospermum scoparium)
this morning, take a tablespoon in the mouth, about 2 - 3 minutes, rinse vigorously and pass between the teeth. Then spit out and rinse your mouth thoroughly. Brush your teeth carefully. ! In no case should the oil be swallowed!
