Botanical source: Juglans regia

Plant part: Seed (kernel)

Extraction: Cold-pressed

Origin & sourcing: Walnut Oil is pressed in India from locally cultivated or wild-harvested plant material. Herbuno sources from verified pressing facilities with traceability documentation.

Traditional use context: Walnut Oil has an unusually high ALA (ω-3) content for a tree nut oil, giving it excellent anti-inflammatory properties alongside good emolliency. High combined PUFA content means it is oxidation-sensitive — refrigerate

Formulator note: Per-lot GC-MS fatty acid profile and CoA available on request — essential for formulations with specific fatty acid label claims.
