Brief Description of Andiroba Seed Oil:
Andiroba oil is a rich source of essential fatty acids, including oleic, palmitic, myristic and linoleic
acids, and contains no fatty components such as triterpenes, tannins, and alkaloids, which are isolated
as Andirobina and Carapina. The bitter taste of the oil is attributed to a group of terpene chemicals
called meliacins, which are very similar to the bitter antimalarial chemicals. Recently, one of these meliacins,
called gedunin, was documented to have pest control properties and antimalarial effects equal to
that of quinine. A chemical analysis of andiroba oil identified the anti-inflammatory named andirobina,
which has healing and insect repelling properties that are attributed to the presence of limonoids.
