1.The purest king of oleic acidCamellia oil, also known as tea seed oil, is called "the olive oil of the East." Its monounsaturated fatty acid content is over 80%, even higher than that of olive oil. This fatty acid structure is very stable, and after entering the human body, it can more effectively regulate blood lipids, showing significant advantages in preventing and treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as hypertension and stroke.2. A high-temperature resistant "all-rounder"Unlike olive oil, which is delicate, camellia oil has a high smoke point of 252℃. What does this mean? It means you can confidently use it for stir-frying, pan-frying fish, and even deep-frying without worrying about producing excessive fumes and harmful substances. It maintains structural stability even at high temperatures, preserving the original flavor of the ingredients and locking in its nutrients, making it a truly healthy oil suitable for Chinese cooking.3. Unique "longevity elements"
Camellia oil contains squalene, an active substance absent in olive oil. This is an excellent oxygen-supplying substance that can improve cellular hypoxia and promote metabolism. Furthermore, components such as tea polyphenols and saponins have powerful antioxidant effects, effectively scavenging free radicals in the body. Camellia oil often outperforms olive oil in delaying aging and inhibiting tumor cells.
Researchers at Zhejiang University specifically compared the effects of camellia oil and olive oil on cardiovascular health. The results showed that subjects consuming camellia oil exhibited even better improvements in cardiovascular metabolic health indicators than the olive oil group.
