Cold Pressed Safflower Oil Reduce Weight

Due to the linoleic acid that in its content; the Cold Pressed Safflower Oil breaks up the fat and those who wish to follow a diet can comfortably use this oil. Prof. Dr. Fikret Akınerdem, head of the department of Botanic in Selcuk University Faculty of Agriculture and the President of Turkish Association of Safflower Oil, in its speech, made in this regard, states that the Omega – 6 that is also known as Conjugated Linoleic Acid has fat burning features and further states that it prevents the accumulation of fat tissue.

Akınerdem underlines that the Cold Pressed Safflower contains more OMEGA – 6 compared to other fat acids, saying “The most important issue today is obesity. In addition, there is diabetes and high cholesterol. Measures should be taken in this regard.”

Akınerdem, who states that the Cold Pressed Safflower is a significant chance for this aim, says the following;

“Those who wish to lose weight can use the Cold Pressed Safflower in the mornings on empty stomach after mixing it with two spoons of vinegar and honey. As diet oil, it can also be used as a standalone solution on empty stomach. If you perform sports activities for a period of 15-20 minutes after consuming this, if you walk enough to warm your body up, you accelerate the breaking up of the fat in your body. In order for those fat burning acids to function as desired, the exercise is a must. You increase its normal effect, which is %50, to %100 with sportive activities.”

Akınerdem, who underlines that the Cold Pressed Safflower also strengthens the immune system and can be used in meals, salads and frying with comfort, says that the Cold Pressed Safflower does not get spoiled by frying thanks to the fat acids in its content.

The clinical studies reveal that the Cold Pressed Safflower Oil breaks down the fat tissue around the belly.

In a study, conducted in Ohio State University in 2009; obese post menopausal women with Diabetes Type II were presented with 8 grams of Cold Pressed Safflower Oil per day and at the end of 16 weeks, 1 to 2 kilograms of  fat loss were recorded around the belly of those women.

According to a study, published in American Clinical Nutrition Journal in 2009; the Cold Pressed Safflower Oil increases the production of adiponectin, a hormone, associated with the fat metabolism, therefore it helps fast fat break down.
