The world record that no one can dispute

Around 1,000 mg of tocopherols per 100 g of oil, compared to 60 mg for argan and less than 30 mg for the majority of common oils. This is not a marketing argument: it is a laboratory figure.

Vitamin E, tocopherol and tocotrienol, is the skin's main natural fat-soluble antioxidant. It neutralizes free radicals (UV, pollution, oxidative stress) and slows down skin cell aging measurably. Added to this is a phytosterol concentration of around 10 g/kg, an unparalleled record, compared to…

Each fruit contains a multitude of small, hard seeds; each seed contains only 5% oil, compared to 18 to 25% for olive, 50% for walnut or 60% for argan. To produce one liter, it is necessary to collect, sort, clean and press a quantity of fruits and seeds which requires considerable and irreplaceable…

The market is infested with intermediaries, undeclared dilutions and mediocre products sold premium: mixtures, solvent extraction presented as cold pressed, false origins. Folk Oils puts an end to this opacity: total and direct traceability from Aït Baamran or Rahmana to your laboratory.
