Peach Kernel Carrier Oil
People are familiar with the citrus, sweet fruit peach, and kernels derived from them. Peach kernel carrier oil manufacturers derive cold-pressed fatty acid oil from the kernels and supply it to users all over the world.
Botany
Peach (botanical name - Prunus persica) is a deciduous tree with an average height of 7 meters. It is native to Northwest China and bears juicy edible fruits and pink flowers with five petals. The Persian people naturalized it extensively in Iran and then Europeans transplanted them. However, China remains the leading producer of peaches. Traditional Chinese medicine practitioners used peach kernels to counter inflammation, and reduce allergies.
The plant belongs to the Prunus genus in the rose family that includes cherry, almond, apricot, and plums. The peach fruit has yellow flesh with a fruity aroma. It contains a single oval-shaped red-brown seed which is the source of kernels and carrier oil.
