Kalahari Melon Seed Oil, the skin and hair wonder:

1. Health-Promoting Traits of Oil Constituents

KMSO is light-coloured and rich in essential fatty acids. Besides fatty acids, KMSO also contains sterols, diglycerides, monoglycerides and phospholipids. The oil is used in cooking, baking, and cosmetics. The stable shelf life of Kalahari Melon Seed Oil makes it a suitable emollient. KMSO contains high amounts of PUFAs, with linoleic and oleic acids as the primary acids. Some biological applications maintained their demand as a remedy for biological complications. The seed oil has an anthelmintic action which is better than that of pumpkin seed oil.

2. Anti-ageing Effects

KMSO is a powerful antioxidant when applied topically on the skin. It provides antioxidant support to the skin cells. The Kalahari Melon Seed Oil mops up the free radicals – one key reason that induced damage to the cells to accelerate ageing along with UV radiation. In the presence of our KMSO’s nutrients, the skin cells react better to deal with free radicals and oxidising agents in the environment. Kalahari Melon Seed Oil contains a significant amount of vitamin E. When applied topically or ingested, vitamin E gets absorbed into our system. Vitamin E improves the functioning of the immune system. Using this oil on the skin enhances the ability of our skin to neutralise free radicals before they damage the collagen matrix.

3. Hepatoprotective Potential (liver protection)

When ingested, KMSO reduces blood ALT and AST levels; their high levels damage the liver. Moreover, KMSO contains palmitic, stearic, and oleic acids, considered essential to the body. Literature shows that these fatty acids help lower LDL cholesterol and increase HDL/good cholesterol. KMSO also contains vitamins B and arginine, which is crucial to release nitric oxide in the body. Therefore, KMSO might lower liver damage induced by toxic substances.

4. KMSO for Skin and Hair (including lips and beards)

KMSO is suitable for oily skin. It reduces skin oil (sebum) on the skin by dissolving it away. This fact is helpful for skin, especially in conditions aggravated by excessive oil production, such as acne. It prevents clogging of hair follicles and thus prevents folliculitis-like conditions. KMSO is also helpful for people with dry, irritated skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. KMSO forms a pleasant-smelling ingredient in hair care formulations. When applied directly to the scalp and washed out, it reduces oiliness on the scalp and hair. KMSO reduces excessive curliness in hair and provides nutrition. It can be used as a hot oil treatment to achieve smooth, shiny, but much less greasy hair.
