The Argania spinosa, known as Argan, is a perennial, woody tree of the Sapotaceae family that originates exclusively from southwestern Morocco. Argan is known as "liquid gold" mainly for the oil extracted from its fruits, which is particularly rich in bioactive compounds with beneficial properties for both health and skin and hair care.
Botanical description:
- Family: Sapotaceae
- Genus: Argania
- Kind: Argania spinosa
- Height: The tree can reach up to 8-10 meters in height.
- Fruit: The fruit is small and oval, containing a hard core that encloses 1-3 seeds from which the oil is extracted.
Chemical composition
Argan oil is mainly composed of fatty acids:
Fatty acids | Percentage |
---|---|
Oleic | 42.8% |
Linoleic | 36.8% |
Palmitic | 12.0% |
Stearic acid | 6.0% |
Linolenic acid | <0.5% |
Argan oil contains tocopherols (vitamin E), phenols, carotenes, squalene and fatty acids (80% unsaturated). The main natural phenols in argan oil are caffeic acid, oleuropein, vanillic acid, tyrosol, catechol, resorcinol, epicatechin and catechin.
Depending on the extraction method, argan oil may be more resistant to oxidation than olive oil.
