Formulation & Usage
Green coffee oil is a lipid material containing fatty acids and an unsaponifiable fraction that can include coffee diterpenes such as cafestol and kahweol. The source also lists chlorogenic acid, phytosterols and tocopherols, but their presence and level in this CO₂ batch require direct analysis.
Required Verification
- Request a CO₂-specific fatty-acid and unsaponifiable profile, COA and SDS.
- Do not transfer chlorogenic-acid results from whole beans, ethanol extracts or extraction residue to the oil.
- Verify caffeine, cafestol and kahweol where relevant to safety or marketing.
- Do not make cellulite, microcirculation, hair-growth, dermatitis or acne-treatment claims without finished-product evidence.
