Efficacy of perilla oil

Regular consumption of perilla oil has the following effects. Perilla oil can obviously inhibit the occurrence of breast cancer caused by chemical carcinogen DMBA, and also reduce the decarboxylation activity of ornithine in colon omentum.

Inhibit colon cancer. 1, lowering blood lipid and blood pressure

Rich linolenic acid in perilla seed oil can reduce serum cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein and very low density lipoprotein, thus inhibiting thrombosis and preventing myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction. In addition, α -linolenic acid can also reduce blood viscosity, increase blood oxygen carrying capacity, inhibit the synthesis of triglycerides, and increase the excretion of various lipids in the body, so perilla seed oil has a particularly obvious effect of reducing blood fat and blood pressure, especially for hyperlipidemia and critical hypertension.

Step 2 protect the liver

α -linolenic acid in perilla seed oil can effectively inhibit fat synthesis, decompose fat and excrete it. Eating it every day can prevent the formation of fatty liver.

3, brain and intelligence, protect eyesight

CCTV's Encyclopedia Exploration reported that α -linolenic acid is one of the basic raw materials for nerve cell synthesis, and it is the key nutrient that determines the development of human intelligence. It is called "brain gold". Correctly supplementing linolenic acid can improve the IQ of infants by 20%-30%. Pregnant women and children must supplement.

Advantages of α -linolenic acid over DHA

DHA (brain gold) is one of the derivatives of α -linolenic acid, and supplementing α -linolenic acid has advantages over directly supplementing DHA:

The importance of medicine is different: α -linolenic acid is an important nutrient in 2 1 century, and it is an unsaturated fatty acid for the body. The human body can't synthesize it directly by itself, but it must be ingested from the outside, but DHA is not. The self-regulation of the human body is different: α -linolenic acid is the precursor of DHA, which can provide DHA to the maximum extent according to the needs of the human body, while direct supplementation of DHA is a strong supplement, which is beyond the control of the human body and is prone to negative effects. Applicable people are different: α -linolenic acid helps to regulate blood pressure, blood lipid and blood sugar, while DHA comes from fish oil, which inevitably contains animal cholesterol in pregnancy-induced hypertension, and cannot be used by women with pregnancy-induced hypertension and obesity and overweight. The "usage method" of the secondary directory is modified as follows:

Direct drinking: take 5-10 ml daily; Drop it on warm rice, bread or steamed bread, and reduce it to 1-5ml for children as appropriate.

Skillfully mixed cold dishes: Add to cold dishes or salads.

Soup seasoning: drop into cooked porridge, soup and milk.

Bake cake: Bake cake with organic nutrient oil instead of hydrogenated oil or cream.

Self-made blending: mix with common edible oil such as soybean oil, peanut oil or rapeseed oil according to the ratio of 1: 5- 1: 10.

Secret recipe: Take 5- 10 ml of nutritious oil, sugar-free homemade yogurt or sugar-free yogurt, mix them evenly and eat them. It is a popular anti-cancer dietotherapy method in Europe and America.

Add a first-level directory "storage method"

Store in the dark at 1 and 0-25℃.

2. After the oil bottle cap is opened, it should be eaten within 6 months and stored in the refrigerator to keep the oil fresh and good taste.

3. After blending with other edible oils, it should be stored away from light.

4. When cooking, you can serve while it is hot to avoid overheating (smoking).

5, vegetable oil is rich in nutrients, a small amount can meet the needs of the human body, and the average daily intake of 5- 10 ml is enough. Excessive intake can not be fully utilized by the human body, so it should be eaten reasonably to avoid waste.

Perilla frutescens is a plant of Panicum in Labiatae. Also known as Su Mahong and Ma, they are distributed all over China. The leaves of Perilla frutescens are green or purple, which have the functions of relieving exterior syndrome, dispelling cold, promoting qi circulation, harmonizing middle warmer, relieving cough and asthma, promoting diaphragmatic function, relaxing bowels and detoxifying, and the back of the leaves are all purple. Modern nutrition has found that the main components of perilla oil are α -linolenic acid, palmitic acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid, stearic acid, vitamin E, 18 amino acid and various trace elements. Among them, the human body is particularly rich in essential fatty acids.

Perilla oil is the edible vegetable oil with the highest content of α -linolenic acid (a-LNA) at present, and perilla seed oil has the best quality, with the α -linolenic acid content as high as 50-70%. In view of the importance of α -linolenic acid and the general shortage of human intake, the World Health Organization and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations suggest that α -linolenic acid should be specially supplemented. (1) Protecting liver and caring skin (2) Thrombosis and lowering blood fat (3) Improving memory and protecting eyesight (4) Alleviating allergic reaction (5) Delaying aging.

Perilla oil is an edible oil squeezed from perilla, also known as perilla, perilla and perilla. It is the first batch of medicinal and edible plants approved by the state, which has the functions of eliminating phlegm, moistening lung, relieving pain and detoxifying. Perilla frutescens is a plant of Panicum in Labiatae. Also known as Su Mahong and Ma, they are distributed all over China. Perilla leaves are green or purple.

The back of the leaves are all purple, which has the functions of relieving exterior syndrome, dispelling cold, promoting qi circulation, regulating middle warmer, relieving cough and asthma, benefiting diaphragm, widening intestine and detoxifying.

Perilla oil can be drunk directly: 5-10 ml per day; Dropped on rice, bread or steamed bread, the number of children decreased to 1-5ml. Can be used to skillfully match cold dishes: added to cold dishes or salads; Can be used for cooking and soup, and dripped into cooked porridge, soup and milk. It can also be mixed with common edible oil such as soybean oil, peanut oil or rapeseed oil at the ratio of 1: 5- 1: 10.
