Siberian pine nut oil is rich in antioxidants and pinolenic acid, an unsaturated fatty acid found exclusively in pine nut oil. Pine nut oil is used as an aid in the treatment and relief of a wide range of digestive and gastrointestinal disorders such as: Gastritis Acid reflux, Barret¿s oesophagus, Peptic ulcers, Ulcerative colitis H. Pylori and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Siberian pine nut oil¿s effectiveness as a natural remedy for these conditions is partly due to the concentration of carotenoids found in the oil. Carotenoids are organic pigments found in some plants, algae, and fungi and help reduce oxidative damage caused by free radicals. Siberian pine nut oil is also rich in vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant. Free radicals, along with an unhealthy and stressful lifestyle, play a role in the development of ulcerative gastric and duodenal disorders.
Pinolenic Acid
One of the key components of Siberian pine nut oil is its high pinolenic acid content. Pinolenic acid is a triple-unsaturated fatty acid found exclusively in pine nuts and has purported anti-inflammatory properties that may help protect, repair, and strengthen the stomach and gastric lining. Studies also suggest that unsaturated fats such as pinolenic acid may assist with:
Research has indicated that pinolenic acid may help stimulate the release of digestive hormones CCK and GLP1. These hormones inhibit acid production in the stomach, increase insulin secretion, and also help with the absorption of essential nutrients that your body needs. Research also indicates that pinolenic acid may increase satiety for a short period of time, thereby decreasing food intake.
