Buriti oil is very rich in oleic acid (72.5%), a type of mono-unsaturated fatty acid that is abundant in olive oil and is associated with lowering the risk of coronary heart disease. It is also one of the richest natural sources of beta-carotene (30 milligrams/100 g pulp), exceeding 5 times the level of carrots (6,6 milligrams/100 g pulp). Beta-carotene is one of the most powerful antioxidants, known for its cell renewal properties, and is an excellent natural skin exfoliator.
