Palm Olein Oil Dealers in Banaskantha

Palm  Olein Oil (also known as dendê oil, from Portuguese) is an edible vegetable oil derived from the mesocarp (reddish pulp) of the fruit of the oil palms, primarily the African oil palm Elaeis guineensis, and to a lesser extent from the American oil palm Elaeis oleifera and the maripa palm Attalea maripa.   Palm Olein Oil is naturally reddish in color because of a high beta-carotene content. It is not to be confused with palm kernel oil derived from the kernel of the same fruit, or coconut oil derived from the kernel of the coconut palm (Cocos nucifera). The differences are in color (raw palm kernel oil lacks carotenoids and is not red), and in saturated fat content: Palm mesocarp oil is 41% saturated, while palm kernel oil and coconut oil are 81% and 86% saturated respectively. Carotenoids (alpha-,beta-,and gamma-carotenes) Sterols (sitosterol, stigmasterol and campesterol) Vitamin E (tocopherols and tocotrienols) Water-soluble powerful antioxidants, phenolic acids and flavonoids
