Extra-virgin oil can be obtained during the first pressing of the seeds, which can be used as a substitute for olive oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003eThe proteins in the seeds are very rich in sulfur amino acids, such as cysteine (8%) and methionine (18%); the presence of methionine enhances the adsorption of selenium and other minerals. Due to its anti-free radical, antioxidant, and moisturizing properties, the cosmetic industry uses the seed oil from this tree in anti-aging skin products. It is also considered one of the best conditioners for damaged and dehydrated hair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"\u003e \u003cimg style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1405\/6240\/files\/brasilnut-data2_large.gif?v=1489525666\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1405\/6240\/files\/brasilnut-acid_large.gif?v=1489525714\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eAll our oils, butters, and bioactive products are extracted from Amazonian plants using free chemicals methods (without the use of chemical reagents or solvents).

It is important to remember that the extraction of the Brazilian nut does not harm the rain florets in any way.  \u003cbr\u003e It is a very large tree, leafy and majestic, often reaching a height of 50 meters and can be more than 2 meters in diameter. The fruit of the Brazil nut is a large capsule containing 10 to 25 seeds (nuts).  To remove the seeds the capsule needs to be broken, which has a very hard and woody shell that has an opening (when mature) that is small and does not allow the seeds to fall out.\u003cbr\u003eA mature tree produces an average 125 liters of seeds (at an average 45 seeds per liter). The peeled seed is approximately 70% oil. An oil press can extract (without the use of solvents) 40% of the oil, which means each tree can produce up to 50 liters of oil per year.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paris Fragrances","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49263185428713,"sku":"BZN-110-1","price":980.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1405\/6240\/files\/brazilnut_bottle_-_Copy_1.webp?v=1761671546","url":"https:\/\/www.parisfragrancesusa.com\/products\/brazil-nut-oil-castanha-do-para-natural-unrefined-110lb-50kg","provider":"Paris Fragrances","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
