Abstract:
The genetic diversity of date palms is widespread date seed oil is regarded as one of the most valuable vegetable oils because of its abundance in fatty acids, phenolic compounds, and antioxidants. There are numerous advantages of DPSO for human health. In fact, DPSO has stronger oxidative stability than olive oil. DPSO performed well in protecting against UV rays and, consequently, against cellular damage. Date seed oil has been used to substitute some of the other vegetable oils in recipes. Sometimes we may not be aware that date seeds play crucial role in the production of products we use daily, such as, cream, various medicines. It is known that date seeds can be used to treat both common and infected wounds. Date seed oil is also good for hair health, skin, and fertility. The use of date seed oil in wax coats is another unusual use. Since date pit oil may operate as both a hydrophobic and an antibacterial agent at the same time, it has been largely substituted for water in the integration process Therefore, using date pits in food may help the date fruit industry make better use of its waste materials, increase local food security, and reduce adverse environmental effects.
