Alternative Ageing - the natural way to hold back the years - Suzi Grant

"Argan oil is one of my very favourite “speciality” oils to make a starter or a salad that little bit different. It is extracted from the Moroccan Argan nut tree and has been used by the Berber women for centuries to serve for breakfast, with freshly baked bread, sprinkled on salads and vegetables or tajines and cous cous. It has a delicious, rich, nutty flavour and is being heralded by chefs like Antony Worrall Thompson as new ‘trendy’ oil.

Health-wise Argan oil is superb; like all other nut oils, it is very low in saturated fats, as well as having a good profile of Omega 6 essential fats.  Argan oil contains almost twice as much vitamin E as olive oil, is rich in antioxidants and contains rare plant sterols, not found in other oils, that give it anti-inflammatory properties that have successfully helped treat rheumatic joint pain, blocked arteries and high cholesterol.   It is also a good liver and gall bladder supporter.

Argan oil is so rich in Vitamin E that it is used by Moroccan women for protecting and nourishing their skin and has been used successfully to reduce scarring, acne and psoriasis.  Try it internally and externally for its anti-ageing effects."
