The oil contains antioxidants. Vitamin E, plant sterols and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), which can lower cholestrol and prevent chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and cancer. Fatty oils are divided into three types: drying and semi-drying oil, non-drying oil, and vegetable oil. The refined grades of drying and semi-drying oils are used to make edible oils, while the poorer grades are used to make soaps, varnishes, paints, candles, and other similar products. Oils contain a variety of bioactive chemicals (e.g., terpenoids), which have most biological effects and qualities in addition to their scent and flavor. Antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant, insecticide, anthelminthic, acaricidal, larvicidal, anthelmintic, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxic, antibacterial, antiseptic, and local anaesthetic are just few of them.Oil compounds, such as geraniol, have recently demonstrated potential anticancer actions in cancer cells, triggering growth inhibition and death.
