What Exactly is Perilla Seed oil?
Perilla seed oil is extracted from the seeds of the Perilla plant. The plant is a leafy, bushy, herb that belongs to the mint family and it is also known as Shiso. It has a robust, minty aroma, which is like cinnamon and licorice.
It grows to a height of around 4 feet, in light to medium moist and well-drained soil with a lot of sunlight. The young leaves and seedlings are edible parts of the plant and can be eaten raw or cooked. The leaves of perilla plant are used as a spice and are usually fried or combined with rice, soups, fish curries and vegetable salads.
The essential oil extracted from the seed is used for flavoring tofu, plum pickles, candies, and sauces. Both the leaves and seed of perilla plant have essential nutrients including protein, antioxidants and fatty acids. It is also a healthy cooking oil, that you can use to sauté vegetables or for salad dressings.
Historically, perilla seed oil is used for the treatment of asthma, to soothe stomach ache, and to relieve muscle spasms.
The perilla plant contains important nutrients such as alpha-linolenic acid, omega-3 fatty acids and omega-6 fatty acid. Perilla seed oil is extracted by using the cold-pressed method and the seeds are roasted first for a more intense flavor. It is said to contain compounds such as alpha linolenic acid (a form of omega-3 to plant sources).
Fatty acids profile in perilla seed: On average, perilla seed yield 35% to 45% oil, with half or more of it (54 to 64%) being ALA alpha linolenic acid. About 14% linolenic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid. The rest is oleic acid, an omega-9 fatty acid. (source)
Here are 5 Heath Benefits of Perilla seed oil
Perilla seed can be used both for medicinal and culinary purposes. Some of the important uses and health benefits of perilla seed oil include:
Aids in anti-inflammatory activity: Perilla seed oil contains several compounds such as the omega-3 fatty acid and Rosmarinic acid. Both these compounds have shown results of suppressing and lowering the levels of inflammation in the body. These compounds help relieve inflammation and suppress allergy causing agents.
Aids in promoting good HDL: This oil contains an impressive amount of Omega-3 fatty acid and small amounts of Omega-6 and Omega-9 fatty acid. Consumption of Omega-3 helps in raising HDL (good cholesterol) while lowering the bad cholesterol levels. Thus, it aids in the prevention of cholesterol plaques on the inner artery walls and subsequent high blood pressure and heart attack.
Aids in reducing oxidative stress: The oil of perilla seed is a good source of potent antioxidants such as rosmarinic acid, shishonin, apigenin, quercetin, luteolin and essential oil fatty acid with strong antioxidant activity. The antioxidants protect against the harmful actions of reactive oxygen that causes oxidative stress. Free radicals cause damage at the cellular level that disrupt the normal cell function which is where the antioxidants help.
Efficient against allergies: The Rosmarinic acid in perilla oil helps to inhibit the inflammatory activity, thus aiding in the prevention of seasonal allergy. The oil extract from the perilla can also improve the lung function and breathing problem of people suffering from asthma.
Excellent for skin care: The Rosmarinic acid in the perilla seed oil aids in an effective treatment of atopic dermatitis. The oil is wonderful for calming the skin, and regular application is good for dry skin. The oil also helps reduce clogged pores. It also helps cysts and acne when applied topically.
