IUPAC name: (5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z)-Icosa-5,8,11,14-tetraenoic acid

Molar mass: 304.474g

Arachidonic acid (AA, sometimes ARA) is a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid 20:4(ω-6), or 20:4(5,8,11,14).
Arachidonic Acid is structurally related to the saturated arachidic acid found in cupuaçu butter.
Arachidonic Acid is name derives from the New Latin word arachis (peanut), but it is important to note that peanut oil does not contain any arachidonic acid.

Arachidonic acid is also a precursor to anandamide.
Some arachidonic acid is converted into hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs) and epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) by epoxygenase.
The production of Arachidonic acid and its actions in the body are collectively known as the "arachidonic acid cascade"; see essential fatty acid interactions and the enzyme and metabolite linkages given in the previous paragraph for more details.

Arachidonic acid in the body
Muscle growth:
Arachidonic acid promotes the repair and growth of skeletal muscle tissue via conversion to prostaglandin PGF2alpha during and following physical exercise.
PGF2alpha promotes muscle protein synthesis by signaling through the Akt/mTOR pathway, similar to leucine, β-hydroxy β-methylbutyric acid (HMB), and phosphatidic acids.

Brain:
Arachidonic acid is one of the most abundant fatty acids in the brain, and is present in similar quantities to docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The two account for about 20% of its fatty-acid content.
Like DHA, neurological health is reliant upon sufficient levels of arachidonic acid.
Among other things, arachidonic acid helps to maintain hippocampal cell membrane fluidity.
Arachidonic acid also helps protect the brain from oxidative stress by activating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma.
Arachidonic acid also activates syntaxin-3 (STX-3), a protein involved in the growth and repair of neurons.

Arachidonic acid is also involved in early neurological development.
In one study, infants (18 months) given supplemental arachidonic acid for 17 weeks demonstrated significant improvements in intelligence, as measured by the Mental Development Index.
This effect is further enhanced by the simultaneous supplementation of Arachidonic acid with DHA.

In adults, the disturbed metabolism of Arachidonic acid may contribute to neuropsychiatric disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and bipolar disorder.
There is evidence of significant alterations in the conversion of arachidonic acid to other bioactive molecules (overexpression or disturbances in the AA enzyme cascade) in these conditions.

Alzheimer's disease:
Studies on arachidonic acid and the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease have shown mixed results, with one study of and its metabolites that suggests they are associated with the onset of Alzheimer's disease, whereas another study suggests that the supplementation of arachidonic acid during the early stages of this disease may be effective in reducing symptoms and slowing the disease progress.
Additional studies on arachidonic acid supplementation for Alzheimer's patients are needed.
Another study indicates that air pollution is the source of inflammation and arachidonic acid metabolites promote the inflammation to signal the immune system of the cell damage.

Bodybuilding supplement:
Arachidonic acid is marketed as an anabolic bodybuilding supplement in a variety of products.
Supplementation of arachidonic acid (1,500 mg/day for eight weeks) has been shown to increase lean body mass, strength, and anaerobic power in experienced resistance-trained men.
This was demonstrated in a placebo-controlled study at the University of Tampa.
Thirty men (aged 20.4 ± 2.1 years) took arachidonic acid or a placebo for eight weeks, and participated in a controlled resistance-training program. After eight weeks, lean body mass (LBM) had increased significantly, and to a greater extent, in the AA group (1.62 kg) vs. placebo (0.09 kg) (p<0.05). The change in muscle thickness was also greater in the AA group (.47 cm) than placebo (.25 cm) (p<0.05). Wingate anaerobic power increased to a greater extent in AA group as well (723.01 to 800.66 W) vs. placebo (738.75 to 766.51 W). Lastly, the change in total strength was significantly greater in the AA group (109.92 lbs.) compared to placebo (75.78 lbs.). These results suggest that AA supplementation can positively augment adaptations in strength and skeletal muscle hypertrophy in resistance-trained men.

An earlier clinical study examining the effects of 1,000 mg/day of arachidonic acid for 50 days found supplementation to enhance anaerobic capacity and performance in exercising men.
During this study, a significant group–time interaction effect was observed in Wingate relative peak power (AA: 1.2 ± 0.5; P: -0.2 ± 0.2 W•kg-1, p=0.015). Statistical trends were also seen in bench press 1RM (AA: 11.0 ± 6.2; P: 8.0 ± 8.0 kg, p=0.20), Wingate average power (AA:37.9 ± 10.0; P: 17.0 ± 24.0 W, p=0.16), and Wingate total work (AA: 1292 ± 1206; P: 510 ± 1249 J, p=0.087). AA supplementation during resistance training promoted significant increases in relative peak power with other performance-related variables approaching significance.
These findings support the use of AA as an ergogenic.

Chemistry of Arachidonic acid:
In chemical structure, arachidonic acid is a carboxylic acid with a 20-carbon chain and four cis-double bonds; the first double bond is located at the sixth carbon from the omega end.
Some chemistry sources define 'arachidonic acid' to designate any of the eicosatetraenoic acids.
However, almost all writings in biology, medicine, and nutrition limit the term to all cis-5,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid.

Biology of Arachidonic acid:
Arachidonic acid is a polyunsaturated fatty acid present in the phospholipids (especially phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, and phosphatidylinositides) of membranes of the body's cells, and is abundant in the brain, muscles, and liver.
Skeletal muscle is an especially active site of arachidonic acid retention, accounting for roughly 10-20% of the phospholipid fatty acid content typically.

Conditionally essential fatty acid:
Arachidonic acid in the human body usually comes from dietary animal sources (meat, eggs).
Arachidonic acid is not one of the essential fatty acids.
However, Arachidonic acid does become essential if a deficiency in linoleic acid exists or if an inability to convert linoleic acid to arachidonic acid occurs.

Some mammals lack the ability or have a very limited capacity to convert linoleic acid to arachidonic acid, making it an essential part of their diets.
Since linoleic acid consumption does not seem to affect levels of arachidonic acid in plasma/serum or erythrocytes, it is uncertain if humans can in fact convert linoleic acid to arachidonic acid.
Since little or no arachidonic acid is found in common plants, such animals are obligate carnivores; the cat is a common example of having the inability to desaturate essential fatty acids.
A commercial source of arachidonic acid has been derived, however, from the fungus Mortierella alpina.

Eicosanoid synthesis of Arachidonic acid:
Arachidonic acid is freed from phospholipid by hydrolysis, catalyzed by the phospholipase A2 (PLA2).
Arachidonic acid for signaling purposes appears to be derived by the action of group IVA cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2, 85 kDa), whereas inflammatory arachidonic acid is generated by the action of a low-molecular-weight secretory PLA2 (sPLA2, 14-18 kDa).
Arachidonic acid is a precursor to a wide range of eicosanoids:

The enzymes cyclooxygenase-1 and -2 (i.e. prostaglandin G/H synthase 1 and 2 {PTGS1 and PTGS2}) convert arachidonic acid to prostaglandin G2 and prostaglandin H2, which in turn may be converted to various prostaglandins, to prostacyclin, to thromboxanes, and to the 17-carbon product of thromboxane metabolism of prostaglandin G2/H2, 12-Hydroxyheptadecatrienoic acid (12-HHT).
The enzyme 5-lipoxygenase catalyzes the oxidation of arachidonic acid to 5hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HPETE), which in turn converts to various leukotrienes (i.e., leukotriene B4, leukotriene C4, leukotriene D4, and leukotriene E4 as well as to 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) which may then be further metabolized to 5-HETE's more potent 5-keto analog, 5-oxo-eicosatetraenoic acid (5-oxo-ETE) (also see 5-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid.
The enzymes 15-lipoxygenase-1 (ALOX15 and 15-lipoxygenase-2 (ALOX15B catalyzes the oxidation of arachidonic acid to 15-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15-HPETE), which may then be further converted to 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15-HETE) and lipoxins; 15-Lipoxygenase-1 may also further metabolize 15-HPETE to eoxins in a pathway analogous to (and presumably using the same enzymes as used in) the pathway which metabolizes 5-HPETE to leukotrienes.
The enzyme 12-lipoxygenase (ALOX12) catalyzes oxidation of arachidonic acid to 12-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HPETE), which may then be metabolized to 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) and to hepoxilins.

Dietary arachidonic acid and inflammation:
Increased consumption of arachidonic acid will not cause inflammation during normal metabolic conditions unless lipid peroxidation products are mixed in.
Arachidonic acid is metabolized to both proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory eicosanoids during and after the inflammatory response, respectively.
Arachidonic acid is also metabolized to inflammatory and anti-inflammatory eicosanoids during and after physical activity to promote growth.

Chronic inflammation from exogenous toxins and excessive exercise should not be confused with acute inflammation from exercise and sufficient rest that is required by the inflammatory response to promote the repair and growth of the micro tears of tissues.
Some studies giving between 840 mg and 2,000 mg per day to healthy individuals for up to 50 days have shown no increases in inflammation or related metabolic activities.
Others show that increased arachidonic acid levels are actually associated with reduced pro-inflammatory IL-6 and IL-1 levels and increased anti-inflammatory tumor necrosis factor-beta.
This may result in a reduction in systemic inflammation.

Arachidonic acid does still play a central role in inflammation related to injury and many diseased states.
How it is metabolized in the body dictates its inflammatory or anti-inflammatory activity.
Individuals suffering from joint pains or active inflammatory disease may find that increased arachidonic acid consumption exacerbates symptoms, presumably because it is being more readily converted to inflammatory compounds.[medical citation needed] Likewise, high arachidonic acid consumption is not advised for individuals with a history of inflammatory disease, or who are in compromised health.
Of note, while Arachidonic acid supplementation does not appear to have proinflammatory effects in healthy individuals, it may counter the anti-inflammatory effects of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation.

Health effects of arachidonic acid supplementation
Arachidonic acid supplementation in daily doses of 1,000–1,500 mg for 50 days has been well tolerated during several clinical studies, with no significant side effects reported.
All common markers of health, including kidney and liver function, serum lipids, immunity, and platelet aggregation appear to be unaffected with this level and duration of use.
Furthermore, higher concentrations of AA in muscle tissue may be correlated with improved insulin sensitivity.
Arachidonic acid supplementation of the diets of healthy adults appears to offer no toxicity or significant safety risk.

While studies looking at arachidonic acid supplementation in sedentary subjects have failed to find changes in resting inflammatory markers in doses up to 1,500 mg daily, strength-trained subjects may respond differently.
One study reported a significant reduction in resting inflammation (via marker IL-6) in young men supplementing 1,000 mg/day of arachidonic acid for 50 days in combination with resistance training.
This suggests that rather being pro-inflammatory, supplementation of Arachidonic acid while undergoing resistance training may actually improve the regulation of systemic inflammation.

A meta-analysis looking for associations between heart disease risk and individual fatty acids reported a significantly reduced risk of heart disease with higher levels of EPA and DHA (omega-3 fats), as well as the omega-6 arachidonic acid.
A scientific advisory from the American Heart Association has also favorably evaluated the health impact of dietary omega-6 fats, including arachidonic acid.
The group does not recommend limiting this essential fatty acid. In fact, the paper recommends individuals follow a diet that consists of at least 5–10% of calories coming from omega-6 fats, including arachidonic acid.
Arachidonic acid suggests dietary AA is not a risk factor for heart disease, and may play a role in maintaining optimal metabolism and reduced heart disease risk.
Maintaining sufficient intake levels of both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, therefore, is recommended for optimal health.

Arachidonic acid is not carcinogenic, and studies show dietary level is not associated (positively or negatively) with risk of cancers.
Arachidonic acid remains integral to the inflammatory and cell growth process, however, which is disturbed in many types of disease including cancer.
Therefore, the safety of arachidonic acid supplementation in patients suffering from cancer, inflammatory, or other diseased states is unknown, and supplementation is not recommended.

Arachidonic acid is an icosa-5,8,11,14-tetraenoic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid and a long-chain fatty acid. It is a conjugate acid of an arachidonate. It derives from a hydride of a (5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z)-icosa-5,8,11,14-tetraene.

Arachidonic acid is an essential fatty acid and a precursor in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes.
The stimulation of specific cell-surface receptors activates phospholipase A2 leading to the release of arachidonic acid from the cell membrane.

Arachidonic acid also increases the uptake of glutamatic acid through enhancement of the EAAT2 subtype of glutamate transporter.
Arachidonic acid also enhances activation of potassium channels such as TREK-1 and TRAAK.

Various pathways using Arachidonic acid (AA) as the initial substrate are composed of dioxygenases that carry out a complex reaction involving abstraction of selected hydrogens and insertion of molecular oxygen.
Two major classes of enzymes, cyclooxygenases (COX) and lipoxygenases (LOX), are recognized for their prominent role in generating a number of important biological mediators.
Among these, prostaglandins (PGs) and leukotrienes (LTs) are widely studied given their recognized role in human disease conditions as well as physiological and/or pathophysiological activities.
Of these biological actions, one of the most significant is the major role played by eicosanoids in inflammation, where they contribute to all of the clinical symptoms associated with the inflammatory condition, namely, pain, redness, and swelling.
The ever-growing number of molecules derived from AA includes other families such as lipoxins (LXs), hepoxilins, hepoxides, monohydroxyeicosatretraenoic acids (HETEs), dihydroxyeicosatretraenoic acids, and their hydroperoxy precursors. Whereas synthesis of most of these mediators involves the non-heme iron catalytic center typical of cyclo- and lipoxygenases, hepoxilins and hepoxides originate via heme proteins such as hematin and cytochrome P450.

Arachidonic acid is an essential fatty acid, which is consumed in small amounts in our regular diets.
Arachidonic acid is considered an "essential" fatty acid because it is an absolute requirement for the proper functioning for the human body.
Essential fatty acids (EFA's) are polyunsaturated fatty acids that the body cannot synthesize and therefore must obtain from the diet.
There are two families of EFAs: omega-6 and omega-3.

The most important omega-6 fatty acids are linoleic Acid (LA), gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), dihomogamma-linolenic acid (DGLA), and Arachidonic acid (AA).
The most important omega-3 fatty acids are alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).
Omega-3 fatty acids can be found in fish and certain plant oils.

Linoleic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid, can be found primarily in seeds, nuts, grains and legumes.
Linoleic acid can be converted into arachidonic acid.
Arachidonic acid can be found mainly in the fatty parts of meats and fish (largely red meat), so vegetarians usually have lower levels of arachidonic acid in the body than those with omnivorous diets.
There is a great deal of controversy about arachidonic acid.

Arachidonic Acid is an essential fatty acid, which is consumed in small amounts in our regular diets.
Arachidonic acid is considered an "essential" fatty acid because it is an absolute requirement for the proper functioning for the human body.
Arachidonic Acid can be found mainly in the fatty parts of meats and fish (largely red meat), so vegetarians usually have lower levels of arachidonic acid in the body than those with omnivorous diets.
Arachidonic Acid is important because the human body uses it as a starting material in the synthesis of two kinds of essential substances, the prostaglandins and the leukotrienes, both of which are also unsaturated carboxylic acids.
Arachidonic Acid is a polyunsaturated fatty acid consisting of a chain of 20 carbon atoms with 4 cis (Z) double bonds at positions 5, 8, 11 and 14. Since the first double bond, with respect to the methyl end, is located at carbon 6, the molecule belongs to the group of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids or omega-6 fatty acids.

Some information says that arachidonic acid can cause health problems and other sources say it is needed to aid in muscle growth.
Arachidonic acid is vital to the operation of the prostaglandin system. Prostaglandins are part of a class of substances called eicosanoids.
Eicosanoids influence numerous metabolic activities including platelet aggregation (blood clotting), inflammation, hemorrhages, vasoconstriction and vasodilation, blood pressure, and immune function.
The eicosanoids contain twenty carbons and include the prostaglandins (PG), prostacyclins (PGI2), thromboxanes (TX), leukotrienes (LT), and hydroxy acids.
There are bad (pro-inflammatory) and good eicosanoids (anti-inflammatory) and they compete with each other.
Two prostaglandins arachidonic acid is the substrate to are PGE2 and PGF2a.

The first one is generally thought to be bad while the second is thought to be good.
Studies point to PGF2a, specifically, as being the prostaglandin most closely tied to increase skeletal muscle protein synthesis.
Skeletal muscle tissue has no capacity to actually store prostaglandins, so the only local source for PGF2a is the arachidonic acid that is retained in the outer phospholipids layer of each cell.
Arachidonic acid is the stretching of muscle fibers during intense physical exercise that causes arachidonic acid to be released and metabolized to active prostaglandins.
Arachidonic acid is actually the chemical messenger first released by your muscles during intense weight training, controlling the core physiological response to exercise and regulating the intensity of all growth signals to follow.
Also, anytime you have tissue injury, inflammation is involved in healing the wound.
Some prostaglandins have pro-inflammatory affects.

The fact is, if you work out, you have tissue injury - micro trauma to the muscle tissue.
As your delayed onset muscle soreness will tell you, inflammation is involved in the healing of this micro trauma.
Furthermore, in both animal and human studies it has been shown that exercise lowers the content of arachidnoic acid in skeletal muscle tissue.
Therefore, there has been talk of arachidonic acid supplementation.
The omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acid families form different eicosanoids with different activities.

They compete with one another for the enzyme (PLA2) that catalyzes the release of the essential fatty acids from the cell membrane.
Also, they compete for cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase, the enzymes necessary for eicosanoid synthesis.
A proper balance of these fatty acids in the diet is therefore important for the maintenance of good health.
An increase in the consumption of one family will reduce the synthesis of eicosanoids derived from the other family, which will ultimately have an effect on overall health.
According to many sources, humans evolved on a 1:1 dietary ratio of omega-6 to omega-3.

With today's typical "Western" dietary habits the average person consumes a dietary ratio of between 25 and 40 to 1 omega-6 to omega-3.
This highly imbalanced ratio is due to the dramatic increase in consumption of omega-6 fatty acids in vegetable oils, which contain linoleic acid, and meat and shellfish, which contain arachidonic acid.
At the same time, we are consuming less of the omega-3 fatty acids.
Since the omega-6 compete with the omega-3 fatty acids for incorporation into cell membranes and subsequent metabolism, high intake of the omega-6 fatty acids will result in an increased production of unhealthy eicosanoids derived from arachidonic acid.
Omega-3 fatty acids produce eicosanoids that are anti-inflammatory.

These eicosanoids help support normal blood pressure by relaxing the arteries and blood vessels and decreasing blood lipids.
They also decrease blood-clotting factors.
Omega-6 fatty acids can produce both anti-inflammatory and/or inflammatory and vasoconstricting eicosanoids.
Omega-6 can be good for you if you take them in the right amount with omega-3.

Omega-3 can counteract the pro-inflammatory effects of omega-6 fatty acids.
When omega-3 and omega-6 are in balance, they are both very good but when omega-6 is in excess, they become bad.
For that reason, it is essential to have a proper balance of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids.
A healthy ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 ranges from 1:1 to 1:3.
Now that arachidonic acid supplements are on the market, athletes need to be aware that there needs to be a balance of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids in their diet.

Supplementation is acceptable only if you are consuming enough omega-3 fatty acids to balance with the added omega-6 fatty acid (arachidonic acid) from the supplement.
You have a choice to make.
If your primary concern is muscular gain supplementing arachidonic acid could help as long as you are consuming enough omega-3 to balance your diet.
However, if you suffer from one of the many inflammatory conditions that plague many people who exercise (tendonitis, bursitis, arthritis, etc.) then you should probably stay away from it since it can be pro-inflammatory.
Furthermore, if you suffer from diabetes, asthma, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, are pregnant, or are suffering from any inflammatory disease you should not supplement arachidonic acid in your diet.
Just remember if you are going to take arachidonic acid supplements you should have a healthy ratio of omega-6 to omega 3.

In addition, Argan oil can penetrate deep into your hair cells to offer deep conditioning for split ends and frizzy hair.

Another reason argan oil is good for hair is its abundant content of fatty acids and vitamins D and E.
The trio does wonders for your hair by moisturising your scalp and reducing seasonal dryness.
Additionally, Argan oil helps your body get rid of free radicals and reduces inflammation that causes dandruff.


4) Protects your hair from the intense heat
Use argan oil for hair benefits when you use it regularly, as it gives plenty of nutrients and protects your hair from further damage.
As per the study, Argan oils high in linoleic, oleic, and palmitic acids offer a protective layer to the hair that enhances combing force and guards against breakage during heat style.


5) Promotes hair growth
Due to high vitamin C, using argan oil for hair growth strengthens new hair follicles.
In addition, Argan oil increases your hair volume and combats the effects of hair thinning.

Thus Argan oil reduces frequent and excessive hair loss.

Moroccan ladies have used argan oil to shield their skin from sun damage for ages.
As per a study, argan oil benefits hair due to antioxidant properties that ward off sun-induced free radical damage to the skin.
This benefit also applies to the hair, protecting it from UV light damage such as dryness.


10) Get black hair
Massage with pure argan oil is energising and incredibly rich in vitamin E, both of which help to replenish hair melanin and grow darker hair.
Argan oil contains antioxidants and vitamin E, which can repair all hair damage.
You can prevent grey hair by applying argan oil.
Argan oil also serves as a natural hair dye when coupled with herbal powders like Amla, Reetha, and Ashwagandha.


11) Promotes hair elasticity
This oil can increase the hydration and suppleness of hair and shield strands from harm that can result in split ends and breakage.
Thus, argan oil is one of the best solutions to increase hair elasticity.

Argan oil for frizzy hair:
Your hair are generally the first thing to take in all the extra moisture in the air when it is humid.
As a result, the hair swells as the water penetrates beneath your cuticle, giving each strand an untamed, frizzy appearance.

Most frizz-fighting solutions contain silicones, which may grow up on your hair and cause it to become heavy or dry.
However, argan oil's hydrophobic, or water-repelling, qualities are just one of its many great qualities.
Thus, a small amount of argan oil can manage frizz by acting as a barrier to keep out extra moisture.
Therefore, using argan oil for frizzy hair helps you get soft, shiny, smooth and non-frizzy hair.



HOW TO CHOOSE ARGAN OIL FOR HAIR CARE REGIMEN?
When looking for the best argan oil for your hair, you should do thoughtful research and consider those factors.
Here is what you should remember when choosing the best argan oil for hair.

*Check for its ingredients: While looking for the best argan oil for hair, offline or online, pay close attention to its ingredients.
Choose an oil containing pure argan seeds and other essential oils, such as castor and avocado oils.

*Look for natural and non-toxic ingredients: Ensure that argan oil solely contains natural substances and is free from dangerous toxic compounds.
*Go for cold-pressed argan oil: Another essential aspect is that cold-pressed argan seeds give the highest quality argan oil.
So buy argan oil produced using the cold-pressing method in a controlled setting.



HAIR TYPE CONSIDERATIONS OF ARGAN OIL:
When it comes to using argan oil for hair, it suits most hair types.
However, depending on your hair concerns, you might need to apply it differently or use a different type of argan oil.
On thick, curly, or considerably coloured hair, use full-strength argan oil.

If you do not use it carefully, full-strength argan oil might make your hair greasy or thin; if you have fine or oily hair.
If you can't use pure oil, look for products containing argan oil as an alternative.
A blended or lightweight version of argan oil is ideal for most hair types.
Apply the argan oil lightly, keeping it away from your scalp and focusing on your hair's ends for best results.



HOW TO USE ARGAN OIL FOR HAIR GROWTH?
So, now you know what argan oil uses for hair, let's see how to get these benefits.
There are distinctive ways to get the most out of argan oil.
Here are the best ones to use argan oil for your hair concerns:

*As hair conditioner and shampoo:
Switch to argan oil-infused conditioner and shampoo instead of your standard products for deep moisture and protection.
In addition, with argan oil shampoos and conditioners devoid of dyes, silicones, parabens, and sulphates, your hair receives nourishment from the argan oil.

*A leave-on conditioner or hair mask:
By using an argan oil-infused hair mask, hair can fully benefit and absorb all the vitamins.
In addition, argan oil can be used as a leave-on conditioner instead of your regular conditioner to lessen hair breakage after combing and styling.

*Hair oil:
Use argan oil like any other hair oil, and then, if you need a little bit of more moisture, protection, or frizz control, apply it to damp or dry hair.

*Scalp treatment:
Argan oil is an excellent way to help gently soothe and moisturise your scalp.
To get rid of dandruff, irritation, or general itching, massage Argan oil into the roots of your hair and scalp.

*Best argan oil for hair:
While you add argan oil to your hair care routine, ensure it is high quality and pure argan oil.
Even though Argan oil may cost a bit more, you get value for your money because a little goes a long way.
Here’re things to look for in the best argan oil for your hair.

Best argan oil for hair is always 100% pure organic and packaged for cosmetic usage with no added ingredients.
Best argan oil for cosmetic purposes should be odourless, whatsoever.
As argan oil used in cooking has a nutty aroma, and lower-quality argan oil may smell strongly of rancidity.

Best argan oil for hair should be sold and kept in a dark-coloured glass bottle to preserve its benefits.
There are no guidelines to follow for the proper use of argan oil.
Most manufacturers advise dabbing a few drops onto the skin or massaging Argan oil into the scalp when applied topically before combing through hair.



ARGAN OIL SKIN BENEFITS:

1. Boosts elasticity

2. Hydrates skin to prevent dry and flaky skin

3. Prevents and reduces stretch marks: the skin regeneration and repair qualities of argan oil help to reduce inflammation, increase skin's elasticity and minimise the appearance and texture of stretch marks.

4. Prevents & minimises sun spots: argan oil contains a physical filter against UV light which therefore helps to prevent sun damage, and its skin repair qualities, including vitamin E help to fade sun spots resulting in happy, glowing skin (note, it should not be used as a substitute for SPF).

5. Controls oily skin: argan oil’s anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties can treat oily skin and acne.
Argan oil regulates sebum production so your skin is hydrated and won't begin to overproduce, this is especially useful if you already have oily skin.

6. Reduces breakouts: reducing sebum production helps to prevent clogged pores that Argan oil can lead to breakouts.

7. Helps other products absorb into your skin: argan oil is ultra-hydrating and aids exfoliation meaning there isn't a barrier of skin cells for skin care products to act through and they can easily be absorbed into the skin

8. Prevents wrinkles: due to Argan oil's highly nourishing and sun protective qualities, skin ageing caused by dry skin and sun damage is reduced.
Argan oil’s high vitamin E load helps strengthen the skin’s barrier, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

9. Protect hair from heat damage: argan oil’s abundance of vitamin E and fatty acids can protect the hair and scalp from damage from styling tools such as straighteners and hair dryers.
Rub a small amount into wet or dry hair before use.



IS ARGAN OIL GOOD FOR FACE?
ARGAN OIL FOR ACNE
An amazing argan oil skin benefit is that it’s very beneficial if you suffer with acne as it helps to reduce acne scarring.
Argan oil does this by promoting natural skin regeneration, hydration, and elasticity.

When you buy store bought acne remedies, they often contain ingredients that strip the skin of Argan oil's natural oils causing dry skin to take its place and then sebum production increases tenfold to supplement the lost oils.
This then leads to clogged pores, and further breakouts and scarring.

This is where argan oil for acne comes into play.
Argan oil soothes and reduces inflammation that comes along with acne breakouts, which helps to control sebum production and reduce further clogged pores, as well as promoting self-exfoliation - allowing your pores to breathe.

In terms of helping to reduce existing acne scarring, the Vitamin E Argan oil contains promotes natural skin repair and antioxidants that work to repair and heal damaged skin.



WONDERING WHY MOROCCAN ARGAN OIL IS SO BENEFICIAL FOR YOUR HAIR AND SKIN?
Simply look at its compounds — Argan oil contains:
*vitamin A
*vitamin E
*antioxidants
*omega-6 fatty acids
*linoleic acid

Research displays that when applied to skin, argan oil benefits include easing inflammation while moisturizing the skin.
When applied externally, trocopherol from the vitamin E helps to boost cell production while promoting healthy skin and hair.
This is exactly why cosmetic companies are including Argan oil in their high-end anti-aging, hair and skin care products.



PRODUCTION OF ARGAN OIL:
After the first sales in the US of the cosmetic product in 2003, demand soared and production increased.
In 2012 the Moroccan government planned for increased production, then around 2,500 tonnes, to 4,000 tonnes by 2020.

It was found that stocks of argan oil were being diluted with oils such as sunflower, as the extraction process for pure argan oil can be difficult, and is costly.
In 2012, the Moroccan government started to randomly pull argan shipments and test for purity before exporting.

By 2020, production had greatly increased, especially after studies had suggested health benefits.
Almost all of the oil is sourced in Morocco, and is forecast to reach 19,623 US tons (17,802 tonnes) in 2022, up from 4,836 (4387 tonnes) in 2014; in value terms, US$1.79 billion (£1.4 billion).

The area of producing the oil is expanding: in 2020 it had started near the city of Agadir, 175 kilometres (109 mi) south of the traditional argan-producing area of Essaouira, and is due to expand north.

40 kilograms (88 lb) of dried argan fruit produces only one litre of oil.
Mechanically extracted oil production has started, with the industrial scale driving down prices, impacting the small co-operatives, where work is mostly done by Berber women in the traditional, labour-intensive way.

Mechanically produced oil can cost as little as US$22 a litre, less than half the cost of oil made by the cooperatives.
This can have a great social impact.
However, the huge cosmetics company L'Oréal has pledged to source all of its argan oil from the small co-operatives that sign up to the principles of fair trade.



EXTRACTION OF ARGAN OIL:
The argan nut contains one to three oil-rich argan kernels.
Extraction yields from 30% to 50% of the oil in the kernels, depending on the method.
It takes about 40 kilograms (88 lb) of dried argan fruit to produce only one litre of oil.

Extraction is key to the production process.
To extract the kernels, workers first dry argan fruit in the open air and then remove the fleshy pulp.
Some producers remove the flesh mechanically without drying the fruit.

Moroccans usually use the flesh as animal feed.
A tradition in some areas of Morocco allows goats to climb argan trees to feed freely on the fruits.
The kernels are then later retrieved from the goat droppings, considerably reducing the labour involved in extraction at the expense of some potential gustatory aversion.

In modern practice, the peels are removed by hand.
Workers gently roast kernels they will use to make culinary argan oil.
After the argan kernels cool, workers grind and press them.

The brown-coloured mash expels pure, unfiltered argan oil.
Finally, they decant unfiltered argan oil into vessels.
The remaining press cake is protein-rich and frequently used as cattle feed.



ENVIRONMENTAL, ARGAN OIL:
The argan tree provides food, shelter and protection from desertification.
The trees' deep roots help prevent desert encroachment.
The canopy of argan trees also provides shade for other agricultural products, and the leaves and fruit provide feed for animals.

The argan tree also helps landscape stability, helping to prevent soil erosion, providing shade for pasture grasses, and helping to replenish aquifers.
Producing argan oil has helped to protect argan trees from being cut down.
In addition, regeneration of the Arganeraie has also been carried out: in 2009 an operation to plant 4,300 argan plants was launched in Meskala in the province of Essaouira.

The Réseau des Associations de la Réserve de Biosphère Arganeraie (Network of Associations of the Argan Biosphere Reserve, RARBA) was founded in 2002 with the aim of ensuring sustainable development in the Arganeraie.
RARBA has been involved with several major projects, including the Moroccan national antidesertification programme (Programme National de Lutte contre la desertification, PAN/LCD).

The project involved local populations and helped with improvements to basic infrastructure, management of natural resources, revenue-generating activities (including argan oil production), capacity reinforcement, and others.



SOCIAL, ARGAN OIL:
The production of argan oil has always had a socioeconomic function. At present, its production supports about 2.2 million people in the main argan oil–producing region, the Arganeraie.
Much of the argan oil produced today is made by a number of women's co-operatives.

Co-sponsored by the Social Development Agency with the support of the European Union, the UCFA (Union des Cooperatives des Femmes de l’Arganeraie) is the largest union of argan oil co-operatives in Morocco.
It comprises 22 co-operatives that are found in other parts of the region.

As of 2020, there were around 300 small firms, mostly co-operatives, in the area about 25 kilometres (16 mi) inland from Essaouira, on the Atlantic coast.
The women who harvest the seeds are mostly of the Berber ethnic group, with traditional skills dating from generations ago.
Employment in the co-operatives provides women with an income, which many have used to fund education for themselves or their children.

It has also provided them with a degree of autonomy in a traditionally male-dominated society and has helped many become more aware of their rights.
The success of the argan co-operatives has also encouraged other producers of agricultural products to adopt the co-operative model.

The establishment of the co-operatives has been aided by support from within Morocco, notably the Foundation Mohamed VI pour la Recherche et la Sauvegarde de l’Arganier (Mohammed VI Foundation for Research and Protection of the Argan Tree), and from international organisations, including Canada's International Development Research Centre and the European Commission.



ARGAN OIL BENEFITS FOR HEALTHY SKIN AND HAIR:
Argan oil comes from argan trees that are native to Morocco.
Argan oil can benefit the skin and hair in several ways, such as hydrating and cleansing.

-Argan oil benefits for skin:
Some of the benefits of argan oil for the skin include:
*Hydration:
Argan oil may improve skin hydration by restoring the skin’s barrier function and retaining moisture.

*Elasticity:
Research suggests that argan oil can improve skin elasticity, which may help reduce the appearance of stretch marks
*Wound healing:
Animal studies have shown that argan oil may help treat second-degree burn wounds.


-Argan oil benefits for hair:
Currently, there is not enough clinical evidence to suggest argan oil has specific benefits for hair.

However, anecdotally people may use argan oil for the following:
*adding lighter moisture that does not weigh hair down
*improving hair elasticity and manageability
*preventing hair breakage
*enhancing hair shine
*minimizing frizz



HOW TO USE ARGAN OIL?
There are several different ways to use argan oil.
People can apply Argan oil directly to their skin or hair.
A person should start with a small amount of Argan oil to ensure they do not weigh down hair or overload the skin.

However, if a person has particularly dry skin on certain body areas, such as their heels and elbows, they may wish to use slightly more Argan oil to rehydrate these areas.
If a person uses skincare or hair care products that contain argan oil, they should follow the manufacturer’s guidelines.



IS ARGAN OIL SAFE TO CONSUME?
Some people use argan oil for cooking, so it is safe to consume.
However, a person should only purchase and use argan oil that companies have made specifically for use in food if they intend to consume it.



ARGAN OIL DRY SKIN CARE:
Argan oil is extremely moisturising and so particularly suitable for dry skin.
You can use Argan oil on your face, but also on your hands and cuticles, for example.
Argan oil absorbs deeply into the skin without leaving a greasy film.

Argan oil’s omega fatty acids, vitamin E, and linoleic acids, all of which work to hydrate your skin and soften dry patches.
Either use it daily on your face, or rub an argan oil, or an argan oil-based cream, into dry areas such as your elbows or around the eyes.



ARGAN OIL FOR FACE APPLICATION
HOW TO USE ARGAN OIL FOR FACE: 5 EASY STEPS
Wash your face with cold water using a gentle face wash to make sure your face is clean before applying anything else to it.
Pat your face dry (don't rub as this can irritate your skin) and leave your skin slightly damp, but not wet.

Apply 2-3 drops of argan oil to your face and gently massage in using circular motions ensuring that you're spreading it evening around your face.
Leave to absorb into your skin for 5 minutes (the longer you can leave it the better)
Repeat this process once a day and watch your skin flourish

Argan Oil: Health Benefits, Nutrition, and Uses
Argan oil is best known as an additive to hair and skin products, but its uses go beyond cosmetic.
Argan oil has a sweet, nutty flavor that’s perfect for a wide variety of foods.
Argan Oil’s also known as one of the rarest culinary oils in the world.

Argan oil comes from the argan tree, which is native to Morocco.
The fruit is peeled away and the seeds are dried, roasted, and pressed to extract the oil.
The final result is a smooth, delicious oil that’s become popular around the world for its flavor and health benefits.



HEALTH BENEFITS OF ARGAN OIL:
The fats and antioxidants in argan oil can help your body stay healthier.
The high concentration of vitamin E in argan oil makes it effective at boosting the immune system.
Argan oil also helps your body maintain and repair your eyes and skin.

Other health benefits of argan oil include:
*Cholesterol Control:
The fatty acids in argan oil can help boost your levels of “good” cholesterol and lower “bad”cholesterol, potentially reducing your risk of heart disease.

*Cancer-Fighting Properties:
Some early studies show that argan oil compounds may slow cancer growth and increase cancer cell death.

*Anti-Aging:
Applying argan oil to your skin can help support skin health and elasticity.
This results in skin that is slower to sag or wrinkle, preventing common signs of aging.

*Wound Healing:
The same properties that make argan oil helpful for keeping skin looking young may also help wounds heal.
The antioxidants found in argan oil can help reduce inflammation.
One early study showed that burns heal faster when argan oil is regularly applied, but human trials still need to be done before argan oil can be officially prescribed.



WHERE DOES ARGAN OIL COME FROM?
Argan oil is obtained by pressing the kernels of the fruit of the argan tree.
The argan tree is a tree in the Sapotaceae family, mainly grown in Morocco.
It is a very tough tree thanks to its roots that draw water from more than 30 metres underground.

Its oval-shaped fruit, as big as a walnut, contains in its pulp a very hard-shelled stone containing two to three seeds called almonds.
The fruit is harvested and the oil produced in a traditional way.
The cores are crushed by hand to extract the kernels without damaging them.

These are crushed in a traditional mill and then cold-pressed.
10 hours of work and 30 kg of fruit produce 1 litre of tradtionally crafted oil.
The argan oil we use comes from a network of cooperatives in the Targanine economic interest group in Morocco.

In 2014, the six cooperatives in this network obtained certifications including Ecocert Organic, Fair for Life or Protected Geographical Indication (PGI).
Argan is grown in the southwest of Morocco and is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, vitamin E and has a high antioxidant capabilities which work to deeply moisturize the skin and soften dry patches.

Argan oil is a natural oil for use in cosmetic products.
Argan oil can be used processed warm (<60ºC) or cold and is incorporated into the oil phase of a cosmetic formulation.
In skin care Argan oil is intended to be used in emulsions for face or body care, or in oils or serums.
Recommended usage rate is 1-3%.



12 BENEFITS AND USES OF ARGAN OIL:
Argan oil can both be consumed and applied to the skin, hair, or nails.
Argan oil may support heart health and reduce signs of aging.
Here are 12 ways to use and benefit from this versatile oil.

Argan oil has been a culinary staple in Morocco for centuries — not only because of its subtle, nutty flavor but also its wide array of potential health benefits.
This naturally occurring plant oil, Argan oil, is derived from the kernels of the fruit of the argan tree.
Although native to Morocco, argan oil is now used across the globe for a variety of culinary, cosmetic and medicinal applications.


1. Contains Essential Nutrients
Argan oil is primarily comprised of fatty acids and a variety of phenolic compounds.
The majority of the fat content of argan oil comes from oleic and linoleic acid.

Approximately 29–36% of the fatty acid content of argan oil comes from linoleic acid, or omega-6, making it a good source of this essential nutrient.
Oleic acid, though not essential, makes up 43–49% of the fatty acid composition of argan oil and is also a very healthy fat.
Found in olive oil as well, oleic acid is renowned for its positive impact on heart health.

Additionally, argan oil is a rich source of vitamin E, which is required for healthy skin, hair and eyes.
This vitamin also has powerful antioxidant properties


2. Has Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Properties
The various phenolic compounds in argan oil are likely responsible for most of its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capacities.
Argan oil is rich in vitamin E, or tocopherol, a fat-soluble vitamin that serves as a potent antioxidant to reduce the damaging effects of free radicals.
Other compounds present in argan oil, such as CoQ10, melatonin and plant sterols, also play a role in its antioxidant capacity.

Additionally, some research indicates that argan oil can also be applied directly to your skin to reduce inflammation caused by injuries or infections.
Although these results are encouraging, more research is needed to understand how argan oil can be used medicinally in humans to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress.


3. May Boost Heart Health
Argan oil is a rich source of oleic acid, which is a monounsaturated, omega-9 fat.
Oleic acid is also present in several other foods, including avocado and olive oils, and is often credited with heart-protective effects.

One small human study noted that argan oil was comparable to olive oil in its capacity to reduce heart disease risk through its impact on antioxidant levels in the blood.
In another small human study, a higher intake of argan oil was associated with lower levels of “bad” LDL cholesterol and higher blood levels of antioxidants.

In a study on heart disease risk in 40 healthy people, those who consumed 15 grams of argan oil daily for 30 days experienced a 16% and 20% reduction in “bad” LDL and triglyceride levels, respectively.
Although these results are promising, larger studies are necessary to better understand how argan oil may support heart health in humans.


4. May Have Benefits for Diabetes
Some early animal research indicates argan oil may help prevent diabetes.

These studies largely attributed these benefits to the antioxidant content of the oil.
However, such results do not necessarily imply that the same effects would be seen in humans.
Therefore, human research is needed.


5. May Have Anticancer Effects
Argan oil may slow the growth and reproduction of certain cancer cells.
One test-tube study applied polyphenolic compounds from argan oil to prostate cancer cells.
The extract inhibited cancer cell growth by 50% compared to the control group.

In another test-tube study, a pharmaceutical-grade mixture of argan oil and vitamin E increased the rate of cell death on breast and colon cancer cell samples.
Although this preliminary research is intriguing, more research is needed to determine whether argan oil could be used to treat cancer in humans.


6. May Reduce Signs of Skin Aging
Argan oil has quickly become a popular ingredient for many skin care products.
Some research suggests that dietary intake of argan oil may help slow the aging process by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress.

Argan oil may also support repair and maintenance of healthy skin when applied directly to your skin, thus reducing visual signs of aging.
Some human studies show argan oil — both ingested and administered directly — to be effective for increasing skin elasticity and hydration in postmenopausal women.


7. May Treat Some Skin Conditions
Argan oil has been a popular home remedy for treating inflammatory skin conditions for decades — especially in North Africa, where argan trees originate.
Although there’s limited scientific evidence supporting argan oil’s ability to treat specific skin infections, it is still frequently used for this purpose.
However, current research indicates that argan oil does contain several antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds, which may be why it seems to treat skin tissue.


8. May Promote Wound Healing
Argan oil may accelerate the wound healing process.
Although this data doesn’t prove anything with certainty, it does indicate a possible role for argan oil in wound healing and tissue repair.


9. May Moisturize Skin and Hair
The oleic and linoleic acids that make up the majority of argan oil’s fat content are vital nutrients for maintaining healthy skin and hair.
Argan oil is often directly administered to skin and hair but may also be effective when ingested.

In one study, both oral and topical applications of argan oil improved the moisture content of the skin in postmenopausal women.
Although there isn’t any research on the specific use of argan oil for hair health, some studies indicate that other plant oils with a comparable nutritional profile may reduce split ends and other types of hair damage


10. Often Used to Treat and Prevent Stretch Marks
Argan oil is frequently used to prevent and reduce stretch marks, although no research has been conducted to prove its efficacy.
In fact, there is no strong evidence that any kind of topical treatment is an effective tool for stretch mark reduction.
However, research does indicate that argan oil may help reduce inflammation and improve the elasticity of skin — which could be why so many people report success in using it for stretch marks


11. Sometimes Used to Treat Acne
Some sources claim argan oil to be an effective treatment for acne, although no rigorous scientific research supports this.
That said, argan oil’s antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds may support reduced redness and irritation of the skin caused by acne.

Argan oil also may contribute to skin hydration, which is important for acne prevention.
Whether argan oil is effective in treating your acne likely depends on its cause.
If you struggle with dry skin or general irritation, argan oil may provide a solution.
However, if your acne is caused by hormones, argan oil will not likely provide significant relief.


12. Easy to Add to Your Routine
As argan oil has become increasingly popular, it’s easier than ever to add it to your health and beauty routine.
Argan oil is widely available in most major grocery stores, drug stores and online retailers.



ARGAN OIL FOR SKIN:
Argan oil is usually used topically in its pure form — but also frequently included in cosmetic products like lotions and skin creams.
While Argan oil can be applied directly to your skin, it may be best to start with a very small amount to ensure that you won’t have any adverse reactions.



ARGAN OIL FOR HAIR:
You can apply argan oil directly to damp or dry hair to improve moisture, reduce breakage, or reduce frizz.
Argan oil is also sometimes included in shampoos or conditioners.
If Argan oil’s your first time using it, start with a small amount to see how your hair responds.
If you have naturally oily roots, apply argan only to the ends of your hair to avoid greasy-looking hair.



ARGAN OIL FOR COOKING:
If you’re interested in using argan oil with food, look for varieties specifically marketed for cooking, or make sure you’re buying 100% pure argan oil.
Argan oil marketed for cosmetic purposes may be mixed with other ingredients that you shouldn’t ingest.
Traditionally, argan oil is used for dipping bread or drizzling on couscous or vegetables.
Argan oil can also be lightly heated, but it is not appropriate for high-heat dishes as it can easily burn.



SKIN AND HAIR BENEFITS OF ARGAN OIL:
Chances are, you’ve probably seen argan oil while browsing the beauty aisle at the drug store.
And it’s for a good reason, too.
The honey-colored oil, Argan oil, which derives from a plant native to Morocco, seems to do it all — like keeping your skin moisturized and your hair silky smooth.
You may be familiar with what social media influencers have said about Argan oil, but what’s the actual science behind and health benefits of using this so-called “liquid gold”?



BENEFITS OF ARGAN OIL:
While it comes from a tiny kernel, argan oil packs a punch with what it can do for you.
The fatty acids in Argan oil, like linoleic and oleic acids, are very hydrating.
Argan oil also contains vitamin E and antioxidants that can prevent breakage and damage from free radicals.

Here’s how argan oil can be beneficial for your hair and skin:

*Minimizes frizz
Everyone wants silky, smooth hair — minus the greasy residue.
That’s why argan oil has become such a trendy choice for many: It adds a hydrating boost to calm frizz, while staying light on your strands.
Argan oil adds lighter moisture that won’t weigh hair down, while also promoting your hair’s overall health.
Although it won’t make those pesky split-ends go away, a quick run through of argan oil on the tips of your hair can mask the appearance of them.


*Protects against heat and styling damage:
You may depend on your trusty straightener and hair dryer, but Argan oil’s important to have a shield against any intense styling you’re doing.
It turns out, argan oil can be a natural remedy for that.
Argan oils add a protective layer to the hair and help strengthen hair that’s been damaged by too much heat or chemicals.
A 2013 study even found that argan oil improved the quality of hair that was intensely colored or dyed.


*Hydrates your skin:
Especially if you’re prone to dry skin, Argan oil can give it some much-needed moisture, thanks to its vitamin E and fatty acids.
Research shows argan oil protects the skin’s barrier and improves overall texture.
Plus, if you’re struggling with eczema, psoriasis or chronic dry skin, argan oil may be your saving grace.

Argan oil can be used to help dry, sensitive skin for those looking for more natural remedies,.
But it’s important that there’s no added fragrances or preservatives in Argan oil because those can make things like eczema worse.
While it may add a hydration boost to your skin, Argan oil won’t have much effect on things like acne scars or stretch marks.


*May help treat wounds:
Applying argan oil may also benefit any mild scrapes and scratches.
A 2017 review suggests that since argan oil has anti-inflammatory properties, it may help with irritated burns and wounds.


*May help with anti-aging:
Could argan oil be the “Fountain of Youth,” too?
More research needs to be done to know for sure.
But some studies suggest that this oil may have some anti-aging properties by increasing the elasticity of the skin.



BENEFITS OF ARGAN OIL:
Here are argan oil benefits and ways that you can incorporate this all-natural oil into your daily beauty regimen.
1. Nighttime Moisturizer
Argan oil absorbs quickly and does not leave an oily residue.
After cleansing your skin with an all-natural cleanser, pour a single drop into your palm to warm.

Apply Argan oil in a circular motion to your face and neck.
In the winter months, or in dryer climates, you may need a second drop but remember to use sparingly.
Argan oil is gentle and safe to use around your eyes.
Apply one drop of Argan oil to your face, using a tapping motion, from the bridge of your nose to your temple and back again.

Then apply a drop beneath your eyes with the same gentle tapping.
The vitamin A and vitamin E can help to reduce fine wrinkles and keep this delicate area moisturized.
Plus, a 2015 study indicates that argan oil benefits also includes its anti-aging effects.


2. Skin Toner
Skin toning is an important step in your skin care routine and argan oil acts as an all-natural skin toner.
Argan oil works to fight acne, age spots and sun damage — leaving you with a more even skin tone.
To make your own skin toner with argan, follow these instructions:
pour 1 cup of boiling water over a green tea bag and let steep for 7–10 minutes,
remove the tea bag and allow to come to room temperature,
add a drop or two of your favorite essential oil (orange, lemon or tea tree are great) and 2–4 drops of argan oil and seal combination in a jar
use morning and night after cleansing and before moisturizing.


3. Exfoliant
Do-it-yourself exfoliators are not difficult to make and are significantly less expensive than what you can purchase in the store.
To experience the pure argan oil benefits while exfoliating, just do this:
mix 1 tablespoon of brown sugar with a couple of drops of argan in your hand,
rub into your face in a circular motion for two to four minutes
pay special attention to acne-prone areas and areas that are dry
rinse with warm water and pat dry,

Regular exfoliation helps to remove dead skin cells and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while giving you a younger, fresher complexion.
With the aid of the brown sugar, argan’s nutrients are more readily absorbed into your skin.
Use this exfoliator for more than just your face.
If you have dry elbows or heels (or during an at-home pedicure), mix up a bit more to massage the dry and dead skin away.


4. Acne Remedy
Great news for anyone who is suffering from acne — organic argan oil has been proven to reduce sebum levels in individuals with oily skin.
Women who have never had acne before are finding in that in their 30s and 40s this pesky condition arises, and it is often difficult to treat.
Chemical creams can be expensive and, in the long run, truly do more harm than good.

Argan oil’s essential fatty acids help to reduce inflammation caused by acne (not to mention rashes, infections and bug bites) while helping to soothe damaged skin cells.
If you are using argan oil as your moisturizer, but are still fighting acne, consider adding it to your list of home remedies for acne.
Place a drop in the palm of your hand and lightly dab a bit extra into problem areas.

To fight stubborn or persistent white heads, be sure to make the toner above, using a couple of drops of tea tree oil.
Research suggests that tea tree oil may complement these argan oil benefits beautifully with its rich antioxidant content and inherent antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties.
Together, they can help fight stubborn acne while reducing the inflammation and scarring.



SHOULD I USE ARGAN OIL ON MY SCALP?
You may have heard that argan oil can be beneficial for keeping your scalp moisturized.
While Argan oil is good for your hair it may not be the best choice for your scalp — especially if you have oilier hair.
The reason?
These kinds of oils can promote seborrheic dermatitis (aka, dandruff) if overused.
This happens when there is an overgrowth of the normal yeast of the scalp.



WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN BUYING ARGAN OIL:
Next time you’re in your local beauty store, here’s how to know what type of argan oil is best.
Try to get pure argan oil (usually in a dark glass bottle) to get the most benefit out of it.
This is because certain brands of argan oil have excessive amounts of fragrances and chemicals that can be irritating to your skin and hair.

Hearing all the benefits, you may be wondering:
Should I bathe in this stuff or what?
Like with any beauty product — natural or otherwise — try a little bit at first to see how your body reacts.

It’s best to try it on a small area before applying Argan oil to a larger area on the skin or hair.
While there’s no need to buy argan oil by the case, there are definitely plenty of reasons to keep it handy in your skin care cabinet.
Whether you want to calm your frizzy hair or give your skin some moisture, Argan oil can help in more ways than one.



ARGAN OIL HAIR BENEFITS:
*Condition hair:
Since argan oil is so moisturizing, it serves as a great conditioner or mask for your hair.
“Argan oil’s molecules are smaller than other oils, so it’s easier to penetrate the hair cuticles, which will make hair softer and more manageable with less tangles and dryness.

*Soothe an itchy scalp:
“For those who suffer from flakes and dandruff, argan oil provides anti-inflammatory benefits and will not clog pores, which can lead to damaged hair follicles.
To use argan oil as more of a treatment, she suggests taking a few drops and gently massaging into the scalp, stimulating the blood circulation.
Ideally, leave on overnight before rinsing out in the morning.

*Prevent heat damage:
The vitamin E and fatty acids in argan oil actually protect the hair and scalp from heat damage caused by styling tools.
To protect your hair while blow drying, straightening, or curling, applying a couple of drops of plain argan oil to wet or dry hair before and after styling.

*Boost shine:
Unlike other bases for hair oils, like coconut and olive oil, argan oil is easily absorbed into the hair strand, so it doesn’t leave a greasy residue unless you overdo it.
Thanks to the fact that it is rich in fatty acids, Argan oil helps bring shine and luster back into the hair without weighing it down and causing buildup.
To use, apply Argan oil a few drops to wet hair before styling.
On dry hair, apply Argan oil a small amount, focusing on the ends.

*Reduce frizz
Rivera likes to use a few drops of argan oil on wet strands prior to styling to hydrate and prep hair.
If there is still a bit of frizz, take a drop and rub well into your hands, then work into dry hair, starting and focusing at the ends,.
As an added bonus, using a little Argan oil on the ends of your hair may help reduce the appearance of split ends.

*Add sun protection
Argan oil works like a high-quality scalp sunscreen for your hair, neutralizing free radicals (unstable molecules that tend to wreak havoc in your body) enhanced by the natural environment and sun.

The antioxidants found in argan oil are especially beneficial for color-treated hair to prevent loss of pigment and extend the life of your color.
An easy way to introduce using argan oil as a sun protectant it is by adding one to two drops and lightly running your fingers through your hair after styling or just adding it to the ends.

*Encourage hair growth
“Because of the phenols found in argan oil, which are very stimulating to the scalp, it can help to promote new hair growth.
The best way to reap these benefits is in tandem with a hair loss treatment.
She recommends massaging the oil into your scalp for several minutes a day to stimulate blood flow and open the pores.



ARGAN OIL SKIN BENEFITS:
Add moisture
Argan oil provides a major boost of hydration to the skin, thanks to its high quantities of vitamin E.
Vitamin E also helps strengthen the skin’s barrier so Argan oil’s able retain more hydration.
To help seal in hydration, he recommends applying a few drops of 100 percent pure argan oil to your daily moisturizer, an easy step to include in your daily skincare routine.

*Reduce wrinkles
Because it’s so nourishing, argan oil may also help your skin appear more youthful.
When we talk about thinning of the skin as we get older, we lose both collagen (the building blocks of skin) and the elasticity (the skin’s ability to snap back after being stretched), which leads to tissue paper-like wrinkling of the skin.
When used topically, argan oil has been found to improve elasticity of the skin in postmenopausal women.

*Wound Healing
The same properties that make argan oil helpful for keeping skin looking young may also help heal your wounds.
Argan oil is full of antioxidants, which can help reduce inflammation.

*Brighten skin and fade dark spots
If you suffer from hyperpigmentation, or brown spots on the skin caused by hormones, aging, or years of sun exposure, argan oil may help improve and brighten your skin tone.
Argan oil contains tocopherols (vitamin E compounds) that can inhibit the production of excess pigment from melasma or scars.



WHERE DOES ARGAN OIL COME FROM?
Argan trees grow and tenaciously survive in semi-desert areas of the Mediterranean.
The deep roots and small leaves of the argan tree allow it to resist winds and water loss, resulting in a nut with a unique oil profile.
Pure argan oil is a rare and precious oil that is harvested and extracted from the nut of the argan tree.

For centuries, women across the Mediterranean have used argan oil in their beauty regimen for vibrant, healthy-looking skin and hair.
Moroccanoil only sources the highest quality argan oil originating from argan trees grown in their native region.
The argan oil used in all our hair products and skin products is manufactured by a cold-press process.



WHY USE ARGAN OIL?
Thanks to a uniquely high concentration of antioxidants, tocopherols (Vitamin E), and essential fatty acids such as oleic acid and linoleic acid, argan oil has multiple nourishing benefits for hair and skin.
Our argan oil-infused products make it simple and luxurious to harness these glow-boosting properties and make them part of your daily routine.

Argan oil is considered a relatively international product exported from Morocco, although different companies in Europe and North America distribute argan oil around the globe.
Argan oil is non-refined vegetable oil, of the more well-known “virgin oil” type, is produced from the argan tree [Argania spinosa (L.) Skeels].

The argan tree is deemed to be an important forest species from both social and economic standpoints.
Argan oil has rapidly emerged as an important product able to bring more income to the local population.
In addition, Argan oil also has important environmental implications, owing to its ability to stand against desert progression.

Currently, argan oil is mainly produced by women's cooperatives in Morocco using a semi-industrial mechanical extraction process.
This allows the production of high-quality argan oil.
Depending on the method used to prepare argan kernels, two types of argan oil can be obtained: food or cosmetic grade.

Cosmetic argan oil is prepared from unroasted kernels, whereas food argan oil is achieved by cold pressing kernels roasted for a few minutes.
Previously, the same food argan oil was prepared exclusively by women according to a laborious ancestral process.
Extraction technology has been evolved to obtain high-quality argan oil at a large scale.

The extraction process and several accompanying parameters can influence the quality, stability, and purity of argan oil.
In view of this, the present review discusses different aspects related to argan oil chemical composition along with its nutritional and cosmetic values.
Similarly, it details different processes used to prepare argan oil, as well as its quality control, oxidative stability, and authenticity assessment.



IS ARGAN OIL GOOD FOR HAIR?
Argan oil works its magic on the hair in a number of ways.
Argan oil’s rich in beneficial ingredients, including fatty acids and Vitamin E that make it a great ingredient to use on hair and skin.

BENEFITS OF ARGAN OIL FOR HAIR:
Both Hughes and Fitzsimons agree that much of argan oil's magic stems from its composition: It's rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
If you're looking to make hair softer and more manageable (aren't we all?), this can be your go-to oil as Argan oil has a slew of benefits, according to experts.

*Hydrates and softens:
Argan oil is an age-old beauty secret that has many uses, namely helping to hydrate and soften the hair.
Increases hair elasticity:
With its high content of antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and vitamin E, the benefits of argan oil naturally help to increase hair's elasticity and consistently restore shine to dull, lifeless hair.

*Prevents breakage:
Fitzsimons agrees with the power of argan oil, adding that the vitamin E it contains is crucial to the health of our hair, as he says its rich antioxidant properties help neutralize hair damage from free radicals and other elements.
Whether we realize it or not, we put our hair through a lot of damage with everyday pollution, chemical treatments, and hot tools.
Vitamin E—which argan oil is high in—helps keep your follicles free from damage all while helping to prevent splitting and breakage.

*Protects hair from mechanical stress:
Blake says that argan oil "helps protect hair from mechanical stress" which means it stays looking healthy.
The composition of argan oil may help to keep your hair healthy, even with hair styling and using the hair dryer and curling iron.
Increases shine:
Argan oil promotes shine, smoothness and definition.
It also helps protect hair from mechanical stress (hair styling) and coloring.



HAIR TYPE CONSIDERATIONS OF ARGAN OIL:
Argan oil can generally be used on most hair types, however you may need to apply it differently or use a different type of argan oil depending on your needs.
Full strength argan oil is ideal on thick, curly or heavily colored hair.

If you have fine hair or hair that tends to get oily, full strength argan oil can weigh your hair down if you don’t apply it sparingly.
You can also look for products with argan oil instead of the pure oil.
A blended or light weight version is ideal on most types of hair
Use a light touch when applying argan oil and focus it on the ends of your hair and away from your scalp.



HOW TO USE ARGAN OIL FOR HAIR:
Depending on what your needs are, there are a number of ways to experience the goodness argan oil provides.
I would recommend Argan oil as a conditioner or as a styling product on the mid lengths and ends of your hair.
Some argan oils are a bit heavy, so look for ones that have been blended to make a perfect combination.


*Use as a nourishing conditioner:
Argan oil is rich in nutrients and vitamins such as vitamins A, C, and E; antioxidants; linoleic acid; and omega-6 fatty acids.
Because of this, Argan oil's a great ingredient for conditioning.
The combination of all these super-nourishing ingredients leaves the hair strands softer, shinier, more manageable, and frizz-free.


*Use as a protective spray:
When working on clients, I have to really make sure that their hair is in peak condition, so I look for ingredients like silk proteins to make sure the hair is as protected as possible while I'm using hot tools.
I like argan oil as an ingredient in heat protection products because it's very nourishing and conditioning for the hair, and it provides great slip that makes styling easier.


*Use as a hydrating hair mask:
An argan oil hair mask is amazing particularly if you have damaged hair.
The vitamin E in the oil helps smooth frayed hair shafts and seal split ends while the omega fatty acids work to strengthen your hair.
Leave it on for 15 to 30 minutes to reap Argan oil's full benefits .


*Use as a shine-inducing hair oil:
High-quality oil-infused, Argan oil, products are essential to maintaining shiny, healthy hair because hair oils are made to penetrate into your strands (as opposed to serums, which usually sit on the surface of the strands).
Use Argan oil if your strands are seriously parched.


*Use as an effective styling product:
Argan oil provides excellent shine to the strands and has major anti-frizz benefits.
For those with textured hair, Argan oil can be used to help define the curls.


*Use as a relieving scalp treatment:
Because argan oil is rich in antioxidants, it's an effective scalp treatment.
Argan oil can help reduce the scalp inflammation that leads to dandruff, itchiness, and other scalp issues.

To note though, Argan oil's important not to leave any kind of oil on the scalp for a prolonged period of time, as the potency might lead to scalp sensitivity and inflammation over time.
20-30 minutes should be plenty of time to absorb the benefits.

Structure of Arkopal N 090:
The first two digits indicate the approximate number of molecules of ethylene oxide forming the hydrophilic polyglycolether chains.
The third digit indicates the concentration of the products (0 = approximately 100 % active ingredient).

Characteristics of Arkopal N 090:
Both the physico-chemical and processing characteristics of the Arkopal N grades depend largely on the ratio of hydrophobic molecules (nonylphenol) to the hydrophilic – i.e. water solubilizing – polyglycolether chain (number of ethylene oxide molecules).

Compatibility of Arkopal N 090:
Being nonionic, the Arkopal N grades are compatible with all other nonionic, anionic or cationic substances.
Electrolytes, for example neutral salts, alkalis and – to a lesser extent – acids, reduce the water solubility of the Arkopal N grades and may lead to their salting out, especially at high concentrations and temperatures.
Decomposition of the products does not occur.
For solutions containing high amounts of electrolytes, Arkopal N grades with long polyglycolether chains may be used since, being more hydrophilic, they are not so easily salted out.

Stability of Arkopal N 090:
The Arkopal N grades have excellent resistance to compounds that cause hard water, to metal salts, including those of heavy metals, acids, alkalis, reductive agents and oxidative agents based on peroxide.
With regard to oxidative agents giving off chlorine, the stability, as in the case of all polyglycolether derivatives, is limited to the use of dilute solutions.
The preparation of highly concentrated mixtures of oxidative or reductive agents and polyglycolether derivatives is not possible.

Solubility of Arkopal N 090:
a) in water:
The solubility in water increases with the length of the polyglycolether chain.
Arkopal N 040 is practically water insoluble.
Arkopal N 060, on the other hand, gives cloudy solutions.
The other Arkopal N grades form clear, aqueous solutions at 20 °C.

Dilution of the Arkopal N grades with water initially results in a significant increase in viscosity.
With the mean ethoxilation stages (Arkopal N 080 to Arkopal N 150), this increase in viscosity leads, in certain concentration ranges (45-70 %) to the formation of fairly stiff gels that are not readily diluted with cold water.
To avoid this gel formation, dilution and dissolving are best carried out by stirring the Arkopal N grades into warm or hot water.

Gel formation can also be overcome by the addition of alcohols, glycols and other solubilizing agents as well as by additions of salt.
Stable dilutions of Arkopal N 060, which gives cloudy solutions with water, cannot be prepared with water alone with less than 40 % active substance.
By using solubilizing agents, for example isopropyl alcohol, glycols or suitable anionic compounds, it is, however, possible to obtain clear, stable dilutions at low concentrations.

b) in organic solvents and oils:
In non-aqueous media, the solubility of the Arkopal N grades also depends on the degree of ethoxilation.
In aliphatic hydrocarbons, the solubility quickly decreases with increasing length of the polyglycolether chain.
In mineral oil, petroleum and paraffinic hydrocarbons, therefore, only the slightly hydrophilic products Arkopal N 040 and Arkopal N 060 are soluble.
In aromatic hydrocarbons, in alcohols, ketones and similar polar solvents, and in chlorinated hydrocarbons all Arkopal N grades are soluble.

Physico-chemical data of Arkopal N 090:

Cloud point of Arkopal N 090:
In contrast to the anionic compounds, the water solubility of the nonionic Arkopal N grades decreases with increasing temperature.
Aqueous solutions that are clear at room temperature become cloudy as soon as the temperature is raised to the so-called cloud point.
The cloud point increases with the length of the polyglycolether chain and with the different Arkopal N grades.

Products with a high degree of ethoxilation, such as Arkopal N 230 and Arkopal N 300 do not show a cloud point in water up to boiling point.
By the addition of salts, such as sodium chloride, it is possible to depress the cloud point so that its determination is possible.
Clouding is a reversible physical process; the solutions clear as they cool.

The action of the Arkopal N grades is not adversely influenced, with a few exceptions, by the cloud point.
They can, therefore, in most cases be used even at temperatures above cloud point.
The cloud point is determined in water, 25 % aqueous butyldiglycol solution and in 10 % sodium chloride solution.
Butyldiglycol serves as solubilizer and permits the determination of cloud points of products with low degree of ethoxilation which are either insoluble in water or give cloudy solutions.

Surface-active characteristics of Arkopal N 090:
Like solubility, surface-active characteristics vary with the degree of ethoxilation.

a) Surface tension:
The maximum reduction in surface tension is achieved with Arkopal N 060. As the degree of ethoxilation increases, so the action on the surface tension of water is reduced.

b) Dispersing action:
The values for lime-soap dispersion power established according to DIN 53903 indicate the excellent dispersing action of the Arkopal N grades.
They have, however, only limited application for other materials to be dispersed.

c) Wetting action:
The wetting action of the Arkopal N grades also greatly depends on the degree of ethoxilation.
The most effective grades are Arkopal N 090 and Arkopal N 100.

d) Foaming power:
Being ethylene oxide derivatives, the Arkopal N grades are characterized by moderate to low foaming action.
Their foaming increases with the degree of ethoxilation but at no time reaches the foaming of other anionic compounds such as the alkylsulphates, alkylarylsulfonates etc.

e) Emulsifying action:
The excellent emulsifying action of a number of Arkopal N grades allows the preparation of stable emulsions.
The selection of the most suitable degree of ethoxilation depends on the type of oil or organic solvent to be emulsified and on any other components that may be dissolved in the oil or solvent.

The following Arkopal N grades are the most suitable for the various oils and solvents:
Arkopal N 040 to Arkopal N 060 for mineral oils, petroleum and similar aliphatic hydrocarbons.
Arkopal N 080 to Arkopal N 130 for aromatic hydrocarbons.
Arkopal N 090 to Arkopal N 150 for chlorinated hydrocarbons
Arkopal N 230 and Arkopal N 300 for fatty acids (olein) and waxes.

By combining various Arkopal N grades, emulsifier mixtures for particular conditions can easily be prepared.
Mixtures of products whose degrees of ethoxilation vary greatly are frequently particularly effective.
Combinations with anionic or cationic products are also possible and are of advantage in many cases.

ARNICA OIL Can Arnica Oil Make My Hair Healthy and Shiny? Benefits Precautions How to use it Where to buy Other essential oils Summary We include products we think are useful for our readers. If you buy through links on this page, we may earn a small commission. Here’s our process. Arnica oil is a flowering herb native to cold, rocky regions like Siberia and Eastern Europe. It’s sometimes called “the mountain daisy” because the yellow-orange blooms resemble common daisies. For centuries, arnica oil has been used as a homeopathic treatment for skin, scalp, and hair conditions. The distilled extract of arnica oil is toxic to ingest, but when arnica oil is diluted or applied topically, it may help with a range of health conditions. Most of what we know about how arnica oil heals and helps your hair look shiny is anecdotal. Keep reading to find out what we know about using arnica oil for hair. Arnica oil for hair benefits Arnica oil has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. Some research has confirmed that arnica can lower pain caused by inflammation and decrease the healing time for inflamed bruising on your skin. Since arnica oil can reduce inflammation, while at the same time clearing away built-up oils and killing bacteria on the scalp, many believe it can help treat hair and scalp conditions. However, most of what we know about how this works and whether it’s effective is anecdotal. Arnica oil for hair loss The strands of hair that you can see on your head are mostly collections of dead cells. You can extend the life of your hair by strengthening the proteins in your hair strands, as well as improving the health of the hair follicle itself. Topical arnica oil application may clear sebum oil and other debris on your scalp that can block hair follicles. It may also reduce inflammation that causes itching and irritation and leads to hair loss. More research is needed to study these potential benefits. Dandruff treatment Arnica oil is a popular holistic treatment for dandruff. Dandruff (seborrheic dermatitis) is caused by scalp irritation, dry skin, or a fungal infection. Applying arnica oil may improve your scalp’s texture and relieve symptoms of itching and inflammation, according to anecdotal evidence. Split ends Those who swear by arnica oil for hair believe that arnica oil has the power to strengthen the hair strand from root to tip. By coating the hair strand with arnica oil, you may be able to infuse your hair strands with healthy proteins that will decrease the appearance of split ends. However, there is little evidence for this besides anecdotal information. Premature graying Prematurely graying hair is difficult to prevent. The timing of your hair going gray is mostly based on genetic and environmental factors. However, preserving the overall health of your hair and strengthening your hair follicles can extend the lifecycle of your hair strands. By increasing the lifespan of the hair strands with arnica oil, it may be possible to fend off grays that are showing up early. Arnica oil side effects While the topical use of arnica oil is safe for most people, there are some possible side effects. People who have a ragweed allergy may experience an allergic reaction from using arnica oil. Symptoms of this kind of allergy can include: hives itching runny nose inflamed sinuses headache difficulty breathing If you notice any of those symptoms after applying Arnica oil to hair or scalp, discontinue use and wash it off immediately. When ingested, Arnica oil can also increase your heart rate and inflate your blood pressure. You should never ingest Arnica oil oil. Arnica oil is not safe for women who are pregnant. In fact, it has been used as a homeopathic way to induce abortions. It’s also not approved for breastfeeding mothers and even caused complications in one newborn whose mother ingested Arnica oil. How to use arnica oil for hair Arnica oil can be applied topically as a treatment for hair and scalp conditions. Arnica oil can be used as an ingredient in shampoos, conditioners, and leave-in treatments. Diffusing arnica oil isn’t effective for treating hair. You can buy arnica oil and make your own leave-in hair treatment or hair mask, or buy products that contain the ingredient. To make your own, you’ll need to mix arnica oil with a carrier oil, such as coconut oil or almond oil. You can mix two to three drops of arnica oil with every 8 to 10 drops of carrier oil to create a mixture to coat your scalp. Leave this hair mask on for no more than 15 minutes before rinsing thoroughly with lukewarm water. You may also want to keep some of the mixture on hand for when you style your hair. Run the oil through the full strands of your hair to repair split ends and tame flyaways. If you’d prefer to purchase products that contain arnica oil for your hair, you’ll notice that it’s often combined with some other ingredients. Calendula, shea butter, grapeseed oil, sage, and rosemary are all natural ingredients that also claim to support a healthy scalp and hair. Where to buy arnica oil for hair You can purchase arnica oil most health food stores, as well as some grocery stores. Products containing arnica oil, such as dandruff shampoos and cream rinses, can be found at some beauty supply stores and online. Remember that the statements about Arnica oil’s efficacy have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration, and your success with this ingredient may vary. If you’re interested in trying arnica oil for your hair, check out these products online. Alternative essential oils for hair If you’re interested in trying essential oils for hair, there are other types of oils with more clinical research to support their use. Other essential oils to use for healthy, shiny hair include: lavender oil cedarwood oil rosemary oil tea tree oil peppermint oil Takeaway Arnica oil has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. These properties lead some people to believe it is effective as a treatment for dandruff and a way to make your hair look and feel healthier. There isn’t much research to support these claims.

NOTE : These aromatherapy oils are only for external use Arnica oil is an herb that grows mainly in Siberia and central Europe, as well as temperate climates in North America. The flowers of the plant are used in medicine. Arnica oil is most commonly used for pain caused by osteoarthritis, sore throat, surgery, and other conditions. Arnica oil is also used for bleeding, bruising, swelling after surgery, and other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses. Arnica oil can also be unsafe when taken by mouth. In foods, Arnica oil is a flavor ingredient in beverages, frozen dairy desserts, candy, baked goods, gelatins, and puddings. In manufacturing, Arnica oil is used in hair tonics and anti-dandruff preparations. The oil is used in perfumes and cosmetics. How does it work ? The active chemicals in Arnica oil may reduce swelling, decrease pain, and act as antibiotics. Arnica oil is a safe ingredient for most people, but you should test it on your scalp before applying it to your entire head. Never ingest arnica oil. Possibly Effective for Osteoarthritis. Early research shows that using an Arnica oil gel product (A. Vogel Arnica oil Gel, Bioforce AG) twice daily for 3 weeks reduces pain and stiffness and improves function in people with osteoarthritis in the hand or knee. Other research shows that using the same gel works as well as the painkiller ibuprofen in reducing pain and improving function in the hands. Possibly Ineffective for Reducing pain, swelling, and complications of wisdom tooth removal. In most research, taking Arnica oil by mouth does not seem to reduce pain, swelling, or complications after wisdom tooth removal. One early study suggests that taking six doses of homeopathic Arnica oil 30C might reduce pain, but not bleeding. Insufficient Evidence for Bleeding. Early research suggests that placing 5 drops of a homeopathic Arnica oil preparation under the tongue three times per day might reduce blood loss following surgery for breast cancer. But problems with the design of this study limit the reliability of these results. Bruises. Most research shows that taking homeopathic Arnica oil by mouth or applying Arnica oil to the skin does not reduce bruising after surgery. But several conflicting studies shows benefit. Vision problems due to diabetes. Early research shows that taking homeopathic Arnica oil by mouth for 6 months reduces vision problems in people with vision loss due to diabetes. Muscle soreness after exercise. Most research shows that taking homeopathic preparations of Arnica oil by mouth does not prevent muscle soreness after exercise. It's unclear if applying Arnica oil to the skin after exercise prevents muscle soreness. Some research shows benefit. But other research shows that applying Arnica oil to the skin can worsen muscle pain after exercise. Swelling after surgery. The effects of Arnica oil on swelling when applied to the skin after surgery is unclear. Some research shows a slight benefit. But other research shows that applying Arnica oil doesn't reduce swelling after surgery. Pain after surgery. Most research shows that taking homeopathic Arnica oil by mouth slightly reduces pain after surgery. In some cases, homeopathic Arnica oil has been used together with an Arnica oil ointment from 72 hours after surgery for 2 weeks. But not all research has been positive. Stroke. Early research shows that taking one tablet of homeopathic Arnica oil 30C under the tongue every 2 hours for six doses does not benefit people who have had a stroke. Acne. Chapped lips. Insect bites. Painful, swollen veins near the surface of the skin. Sore throats. Other conditions. More evidence is needed to rate the effectiveness of Arnica oil for these uses. Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Don't take Arnica oil by mouth or apply to the skin if you are pregnant or breast-feeding. It is considered LIKELY UNSAFE. Allergy to ragweed and related plants: Arnica oil may cause an allergic reaction in people who are sensitive to the Asteraceae/Compositae family. Members of this family include ragweed, chrysanthemums, marigolds, daisies, and many others. If you have allergies, be sure to check with your healthcare provider before applying it to your skin. Do not take Arnica oil by mouth. Broken skin: Don't apply Arnica oil to damaged or broken skin. Too much could be absorbed. Digestion problems: Arnica oil can irritate the digestive system. Don't take it if you have irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), ulcers, Crohn's disease, or other stomach or intestinal conditions. Fast heart rate: Arnica oil might increase your heart rate. Don't take Arnica oil if you have a fast heart rate. High blood pressure: Arnica oil might increase blood pressure. Don't take Arnica oil if you have high blood pressure. Surgery: Arnica oil might cause extra bleeding during and after surgery. Stop using it at least 2 weeks before a scheduled surgery. Arnica Oil Review: Be the first to review Arnica Oil Arnica Oil Arnica Oil is a, stabilized, oil soluble, extract of Arnica oil montana flowers in Sunflower Seed Oil. A powerhouse of skin healing actives, Arnica Oil, Arnica montana, has been used for thousands of years to treat everything from muscle and joint pain, to osteoarthritis, to damaged skin. The extract of Arnica oil is well known for it's ability to treat traumatized, and injured, muscle tissues, and skin, due to a complex of natural lactone compounds, and helenalin, which give the herb powerful anti-inflammatory, and anti-swelling, activity. These compounds are shown to improve peripheral circulation, reduce swelling and inflammation, and trigger the immune response. A great choice for any work out or, post work out, treatments, and massage, products as well as for any inflammatory skin treatments. Arnica oil Oil, Arnica oil montana, and pain relief was studied, by UMMC, on patients suffering from mild, to moderate, Osteoarthritis. In those that applied a Arnica oil Gel, to the affected area, twice daily, a significant reduction in pain, and increased function, was seen after only three weeks of use. "Rheumatology International" found that comparable results were obtained using an Ibuprofen, vs. Arnica oil, gel, in a study treating Osteoarthritis of the hands. Arnica Oil, Arnica oil montana, and inflammation was studied, also by UMMC, which concluded that topical Arnica oil was effective in treating bruises, insect bites, and other inflammatory, and swelling, conditions such as post operative, sprains, and fractures indicating its effectiveness in topical application as an anti-inflammatory. Arnica Oil, Arnica oil montana, has a long history of use in inflammatory, and damaged, skin conditions where the healing is improved through increased circulation, and anti-bacterial activity. Arnica oil is even used in herbal treatments for dandruff. Arnica oil is a well known herbal remedy for bruises, sprains and muscles strains. It’s surprisingly effective, as well as easy to make at home. An Arnica oil infused oil also quickly converts to a convenient and easy to apply Arnica oil salve.

Vermont is a rural state, but it’s also a place where just about everyone loves to get outside one way or another. Whether it’s skiing in the winter or just about everything else in the summer, someone’s always overdoing it and in need of a little TLC. I’d learned in massage school that arnica oil is unparalleled as a treatment for sore muscles, sprains, strains, and bruises. I was regularly purchasing small bottles of arnica oil from Weleda, and while my clients love it, my DIY spirit had other ideas. Why not grow Arnica oil in our herb garden and make my own arnica oil? GROWING ARNICA FOR HOMEMADE ARNICA OIL Arnica oil (Arnica oil Montana) is a small perennial herb in the sunflower family. It’s native to Europe but rare in the wild, largely due to overharvesting. It prefers nutrient-poor soil, which limits competition and allows this tenacious little herb to thrive. We had just put in a new garden bed, and it had heavy clay soil and almost no organic matter. Arnica oil loved it! The first year we planted just three small plants from transplants, and even though I harvested most the flowers, the one of two I missed self-seeded. The following year I had more than 100 plants in just a tiny area, and I was able to harvest literally gallons of Arnica oil blossoms for homemade arnica oil. Growing Arnica oil flowers in the herb garden for homemade Arnica oil infused oil HARVESTING ARNICA FOR OIL While the plants are easy to grow, harvesting and preserving the blossoms is a bit tricky. Arnica oil should never be taken internally, and the first time I harvested the blossoms barehanded I got a good lesson. The medicinal compounds in the blossoms taste horrible, and when I stopped mid-harvest to pick a few strawberries from a nearby bed I was sorry. I spent the next 5 minutes spitting, after just incidental contact between my Arnica oil covered fingers and my tongue. Arnica oil isn’t nearly that potent, and I’ve never had an issue with bad-tasting residue on my hands after doing massage work. It washes off quickly, with just a bit of soap and water. The second problem with harvesting fresh Arnica oil is that the blossoms are very short-lived. They love to self-seed, and once picked those little blossoms will turn into fluffy seed bombs in under 24 hours. If you’re going to store them, the blossoms need to be dried very quickly to prevent degradation and keep them from rapidly converting to seed pod fluffs (think dandelion seed heads). Harvesting Arnica oil flowers into a mason jar to make homemade arnica oil Harvesting Arnica oil flowers into a mason jar to make homemade arnica oil. INFUSING ARNICA OIL Generally, I use dried herbs to make herbal infused oils. Since Arnica oil doesn’t dry well at home, I had a lot of trouble making this work. I couldn’t get the blossoms to dry fast enough, and they almost always turned into fluffy little seed heads well before they’d dried thoroughly. (I now have an Excaliber dehydrator, and I’m hoping to try it with our next Arnica oil crop for better drying.) While you can just buy commercially dried Arnica oil blossoms for making arnica oil, they’re around $40 per pound. Since Arnica oil is so easy to grow, I was set on using our own homegrown blossoms. That means making a herbal infused oil with fresh blossoms, extracted within hours of harvest. Fresh blossoms placed in oil need a bit of warmth to help drive off excess moisture, and about an hour in a double boiler on very low accomplishes this nicely. Ideally, the water should be around 170 degrees for 4 to 8 hours. The blossoms dry quickly within the oil, and the excess moisture evaporates out of the top of the open arnica oil jar. (Keep the lids off the jars so that water can evaporate.) It’s important to make sure the water in the double boiler is low so that it won’t come too far up the sides of the jars and get into the oil. A crockpot set on “low” or “keep warm” usually works well, just check it periodically to ensure it’s not getting too hot. Place a towel at the bottom of the crockpot to keep the jars out of direct contact with the heat source, and then add water to the pot so that it goes about 1/3 of the way up the sides of the herb/oil-filled jars. After about 4-8 hours infusing, turn off the heat and allow the arnica oil to infuse for another 24 to 48 hours before straining out the herb mixture. Making Arnica Oil by Infusing Arnica oil Blossoms in a carrier oil. CHOOSING A CARRIER OIL Since arnica oil is only used topically, you’ll want to select an oil that fits well with your skincare and health goals. I often use olive oil for the most versatility, since it’s not likely to trigger any allergies. Sweet almond oil is a better choice, as it’s more nourishing for skin, but if you’re using it on clients in a massage practice there’s always the potential for nut allergies. An even better option is jojoba oil, which is especially nourishing to the skin and non-staining to clothing/sheets. The downside is it can be expensive. A little bit goes a long way though, and jojoba oil was the main oil I used in my day to day massage practice. A single 16-ounce bottle would last through about 50 full-body massages, so it’s worth the extra investment in my mind. (Especially since arnica oil is usually reserved for spot treatments rather than full-body massage work.) Keep in mind that Weleda’s version is about $5 per ounce, or roughly 3 times the price of jojoba oil…and there’s is made with relatively inexpensive sunflower oil. USING ARNICA OIL So once you’ve made your own homemade arnica oil, how do you use it? Applying oils can be a bit tricky, and sometimes messy if you’re just working out of a jar. A simple pump bottle, ideally amber colored to block light, is the best way to store your arnica oil. That’ll allow you to squeeze out just a tiny pea-sized amount so you can apply the therapeutic oil without mess. Generally, arnica oil is applied 2-4 times per day to the affected area to reduce bruising after an injury, or to treat muscle soreness after injury or exercise. As with any new herbal remedy, be sure to spot check on a small patch of skin to check for allergies. When it’s just for my own use, I’ll often make a simple Arnica oil salve by mixing 8 ounces of arnica oil with 1 ounce of beeswax pistils in a double boiler. I then pour the resulting Arnica oil salve into small salve tins for easy storage. When packed fully with flowers, a pint mason jar will yield about 8 ounces of arnica oil after infusion. Once the beeswax is added, that in turn yields about 6 salve tins full of homemade Arnica oil slave. A salve is basically a beeswax thickened Arnica oil cream that’s easy to apply. The only downside of an arnica salve is that it’s applied with the fingers, and double-dipping is a big “no-no” in a professional massage practice. I still make it for my own use at home though, since it’s much more convenient than simple arnica oil. Homemade Arnica oil salve BENEFITS OF ARNICA OIL So does arnica oil work? That one’s a bit trickier to pin down. Some studies show that it’s only about as effective as a placebo, while others have shown impressive results with reduced pain and inflammation. One study found that topical arnica oil was just as effective as Ibuprofin as a treatment for hand osteoarthritis, but with a lower potential for side effects. Another study found similar results when patients applied Arnica oil twice daily to treat knee osteoarthritis. Both of these studies were not controlled against placebo, which leaves open the possibility of a placebo effect at work. A study by the British Association of Dermatologists found that arnica oil had a significant impact on bruise healing, and it worked markedly better than placebo. They used a laser to create multiple small standardized bruises on volunteers and then rated the healing after 2 weeks. Bruises treated with arnica oil healed 20% better according to their dermatologist’s rating system, and just about as fast as common traditional (non-herbal) medicine bruise treatments. Another randomized placebo-controlled trial found that arnica oil significantly reduced muscle pain in runners if applied every few hours throughout the day for 72 hours after a standardized run. In treating athletes in my practice, as well as treating myself after injuries, I’ve always had great success. Placebo or not, Arnica oil always has a place in my medicine cabinet.
