The FLAVEX peanut extract contains a high content of oleic acid. Oleic acid belongs to the monounsaturated fatty acids whose consumption is associated with the reduction of the risk of cardiovascular diseases and is necessary to maintain a normal blood cholesterol level [2,3].*
The CO2 peanut extract with concentrated roasted flavour is often used in cosmetic products due to its characteristic and pleasant scent. Peanut oil also protects the skin from UV radiation and is therefore suitable for use in sunscreens [4]. Due to its hydrating effect, the extract can also be used in skin creams, lotions and other moisturising products [5].*
