This slightly yellow organic poppy seed oil is one of the oldest oils in Europe, recently rediscovered and now considered rare.
Poppy seed oil has a high content of linoleic acid and is similar to sunflower oil.
In cosmetics, it is used for its nourishing properties, as it absorbs quickly and provides additional hydration. Poppy seed oil is suitable for ointments, lotions, and treatments for dry skin and anti-wrinkle creams.
Organic Poppy Seed Oil is used as a salad oil and for refining sweet dishes and muesli. Due to its high content of polyunsaturated linoleic acid, virgin poppy seed oil should not be used for cooking or baking.
Organic Poppy Seed Oil is beneficial for muscle pain and for tired, sore muscles after intense physical exertion. It is ideal for anxiety, insomnia, and coughs (taking 2-3 tablespoons daily).
Organic Poppy Seed Oil can be used alone or in combination with other carrier oils for even better results. It’s also important to note that carrier oils are essential in aromatherapy as they serve as the "carrier" for essential oils.
