Hazelnut oil and its properties

Hazelnut is one of the most favorite delicacies, which conquers with a combination of delicious aroma and not very hard texture of the kernels. However, he also has many medicinal properties - they were glorified by scientists from the Hellenic era, and the plant itself was considered mystical and sacred. One of the most valued oils in cosmetology is also extracted from hazelnut kernels, which has earned the title of the best for oily and problem skin.

Hazelnuts are the kernels of the fruit of hazel, or hazelnut, a fairly compact and very pretty shrub with bizarrely twisted branches, which bears fruit with brown nuts. Hazel grows almost throughout the northern hemisphere, with the exception of the northernmost countries, and most often forms undergrowth in nature. The largest and highest quality hazelnuts are produced where winters are mild. This plant has been known since ancient Greek times under a different name - Avellana, after the Latin name of the city of Avellino, which was the center of the hazelnut trade in the ancient world. Hazelnuts were glorified by the scientists of Ancient Greece and Rome, although hazel kernels were used as food in the Bronze Age.

In the Hellenic era, hazel was a sacred culture, it symbolized immortality. Hazelnuts were associated with the legend of mythological heroes, it was believed that its branches could extinguish a fire and protect a house from flooding, there were even legends that the branches of a growing hazelnut pointed to buried treasures. Thin and fancifully twisted shoots of hazel twisted around the house, protecting it from evil forces. The healing properties of hazelnuts were praised by Avicenna, claiming that hazelnuts are much more valuable than walnuts and in the form of crushed fruits or oil is ideal for restoring patients' strength, and in the East, walnut oil was used as a remedy to keep the skin soft and velvety. The completely unique cosmetic properties of hazelnuts were investigated only with the development of aromatherapy.
