Camellia seeds are mainly composed of water, crude fat, starch, crude protein, tea seed polysaccharides, polyphenols, flavonoids, saponins, crude fiber, and a small amount of tannins. Among them, tea polyphenols, camellia saponins, and squalene are its characteristic bioactive substances, which have the effects of reducing cholesterol, anti-aging, and preventing tumors.
Camellia seed oil is a non drying oil extracted from the seeds of Camellia L. plants in the Theaceae family. It is also known as tea seed oil, tea tree oil, or Camellia oleifera seed oil. Its natural ratio and composition of fatty acids are basically the same as olive oil, earning it the nickname of "Eastern olive oil". Camellia seed oil contains active substances such as tea polyphenols and camellia saponins that olive oil does not possess, hence camellia oil is also known as "longevity oil" and "Eastern God oil".
The tea oil extracted from camellia seeds is a high-quality edible oil with an unsaturated fatty acid content of over 90% and no erucic acid. It is more resistant to storage than other edible oils and is less prone to spoilage.
Camellia seed oil contains abundant VE and tea polyphenols, which can eliminate free radicals, resist aging, protect the structure of cell membranes, inhibit the release of histamine from mast cells, reduce cytokine production, inhibit inflammation or alleviate inflammation. Other studies have shown that camellia seed oil has significant effects in delaying atherosclerosis, increasing gastrointestinal absorption, and promoting endocrine hormone secretion.
