History
A true treasure
Sour yet pleasantly sweet blackcurrant balls are nothing new. They were found as early as the 16th century, and not only in what is now Germany. They were a fruit for the poor, wine for the rich and a real treasure for the wise women. [1, 2]
Processing method
Seed oil
Blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum) – a fruit shrub native to Europe. The resulting oil is extracted from the seeds of its fruits, dark black berries.
Composition and properties
Source of essential fatty acids
The uniqueness of currant oil lies in its fatty acid composition, which is largely made up of essential acids. Omega-6 linoleic acid, omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid and the rare gamma-linolenic acid. A small amount of stearidonic acid is also present in the oil.
Although essential fatty acids are involved in many important biochemical reactions, the human body cannot synthesize them on its own. Therefore, they should be taken with food. [2]
