Abstract in brief

  • Natural plant oils are widely used globally for skin care because they are accessible, affordable, and contain beneficial compounds like antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-itch properties, making them helpful for treating skin conditions involving skin barrier damage.
  • The effectiveness of oils in repairing the skin barrier depends on their specific composition, especially the ratio of essential fatty acids such as linoleic acid and oleic acid; oils with more linoleic acid tend to support better barrier repair, while high oleic acid levels can potentially harm the skin.
  • The way oils are extracted matters; cold pressing is preferred because it preserves beneficial lipids by avoiding heat and chemicals, whereas methods like distillation or adding chemicals can alter oil quality. This review highlights specific natural oils like olive, sunflower, coconut, jojoba, oat, and argan oils and their roles in dermatology for restoring the skin's natural barrier.

— le film cutanée (ou barrière hydrolipidique) sert de barrière face aux agressions extérieures mais elle sert aussi à réguler un niveau optimal d’hydratation. C’est un mélange complexe de gras et d’eau, qui garantit la bonne santé de la peau. Crédit: https://t.co/4DQEu38fHm https://t.co/eka1BQz02c

@najla_aldawsari إضافة أخيرة : أثناء التصفح وجدت أيضا أبحاث تتحدث عن جودة الزيت (الاسمدة الكيميائية و طريقة العصر) وتأثيرها، مثل هذا (https://t.co/gxymFupZwE) وهنا تبادر لي الرجوع للابحاث التي تنفي الخصائص الجيدة لزيت الزيتون "هل ذكرت نوع الزيت وطريقة تحضيره؟"يبدوا لي مبحث جيد للمختصين والله أعلم
