Meitong oil is a kind of edible oil extracted from Meitong kernels. It contains no toxins and harmful substances. The content of unsaturated fatty acids is over 90%. The content of linolenic acid, linoleic acid and oleic acid are 48%, 35% and 9% respectively.

Alpha-linolenic acid is one of the few linolenic acid vegetable oils. Alpha-linolenic acid is the essential fatty acid of human body. It has important biological function. It is the precursor of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-3 PUFA) in vivo. It can synthesize a series of substitutes, among which eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (docosahexaenoic acid) are the most important. DHA). It plays an important role in stabilizing cell membrane function, maintaining the balance of cytokines and lipoproteins, anti-thrombosis and lowering blood lipids, and inhibiting ischemic cardiovascular diseases.

Linoleic acid (omega-6) is an essential fatty acid for human body. It is related to contraction of smooth muscle, activity of enzymes in lipid metabolism, activity of central nervous system, enhancement of attention and memory, regulation of pulse and blood pressure, physiological function of steroid hormones, synthesis of prostaglandins and other vital functions. Therefore, Meitong fruit oil shows better nutritional value.
