The oil has soothing effects. Its properties are similar to the properties of flaxseed oil, but it is less greasy and it is rich especially in unsaturated fatty acids. It contains a high concentration of calcium and magnesium and therefore is recommended for those with bad-quality hair and nails and those who suffer from osteoporosis. What is more, it calms the nervous system, relieves muscle cramps and alleviates headaches. It nourishes and protects the skin and is suitable for dry, eczematous and inflammation-prone complexion. Simultaneously, it regenerates the skin and leaves it silky and soft.

Poppy seed oil provides the skin with essential fatty acids and supports its hydration. The oil tastes deliciously and we therefore recommend it for the preparation of cold cuisine dishes.
