Verdict

Generally considered safe; non-toxic and non-irritating to skin; sustainable sourcing practices are important given Amazonian origin. Cold-pressed oil from kernels of the Tucumã palm (Astrocaryum vulgare); rich in lauric and myristic acids, carotenoids (pro-vitamin A), and tocopherols; high in saturated fatty acids giving it a semi-solid consistency; excellent emollient with antioxidant properties
