Extended data:

The content of unsaturated fatty acids in tea oil is as high as 90%, which is the highest in edible oil at present. Unsaturated fatty acids contained in edible oil are indispensable substances for human body. However, this unsaturated fatty acid cannot be synthesized by itself in the human body and must be supplied through food. When the supply of unsaturated fatty acids is sufficient, people's skin will be tender and moist, and their hair will be black and shiny; On the contrary, if the body lacks unsaturated fatty acids, it will become rough skin and hair loss.

Another remarkable advantage of tea oil is its high smoke point. The smoke point of tea oil is 200-2 15℃, while that of common edible oil is only about 100℃. In this way, when the tea oil is fried at high temperature, the oil fume is condensed less, which will not produce choking oil fume and will not condense and adhere to the kitchen wall.

Generally, cooking oil contains a lot of carcinogens in the fume produced during use, which will lead to lung cancer if inhaled into the lungs. Ladies have worked hard in the kitchen for many years, and the more fumes they inhale, the more likely they are to get lung cancer. From this point of view, regular consumption of tea oil can greatly reduce the possibility of cancer.

Tea oil is a rare woody plant oil, and its unsaturated fatty acid content is higher than that of peanut oil, soybean oil and other herbal oils (the unsaturated fatty acid content of tea oil is as high as 90%). It is easy to be absorbed by human body after eating, and can also promote the absorption of fat-soluble fiber and trace elements such as calcium, iron and zinc.

Rich unsaturated fatty acids can reduce the concentration of cholesterol in blood, prevent arteriosclerosis, and inhibit and prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and hypertension.

Tea oil does not contain aflatoxin, which can cause human cancer. Long-term consumption has a certain preventive effect on diseases such as hypertension and heart disease, and is especially suitable for middle-aged and elderly people. According to the experiment of the National Medical Center of the United States, tea oil has a certain effect on lowering cholesterol and resisting cancer, and is called "longevity oil" internationally.

Unsaturated fatty acids are called "cosmetic acids", and the content of unsaturated fatty acids in tea oil is the highest among edible oils at present. Medical evidence shows that it is important to take enough unsaturated fatty acids every day to moisturize skin and black hair.
