The present invention relates to the use of avocado seeds in order to obtain avocado oil enriched in alkyl polyols and/or acetylated derivatives thereof, said avocado seeds accounting for 10 to 50% by weight relative to the total weight of avocado used. The invention also relates to a method for obtaining avocado oil enriched in alkyl polyols or acetylated derivatives thereof from at least avocado seeds, said avocado seeds accounting for 10 to 50% by weight relative to the total weight of avocado used. The invention also relates to avocado oil enriched in alkyl polyols and/or acetylated derivatives thereof, obtainable by the present method. The invention also relates to the use of avocado oil in order to prepare an avocado oil concentrate enriched in alkyl polyols and/or acetylated derivatives thereof, or to prepare an avocado unsaponifiable enriched in alkyl polyols. Lastly, the invention relates to an avocado unsaponifiable enriched in alkyl polyols or an avocado oil concentrate enriched in alkyl polyols and/or acetylated derivatives thereof, obtainable from said avocado oil, for use as a drug, advantageously in the prevention and/or treatment of conjunctive tissue disorders such as arthrosis, articular pathologies such as rheumatism, or periodontal diseases such as gingivitis or periodontitis.
A process for obtaining avocado oil enriched in one or more of alkyl polyols and/or acetylated derivatives thereof, from avocado seeds, comprising applying mechanical pressure, said avocado seeds accounting for 10 to 50% by weight relative to the total weight of avocado used, and said alkyl polyols being one or more saturated, monounsaturated or polyunsaturated triols of the C17 to C21 aliphatic unbranched linear 1,2,4-trihydroxy type.
A process for obtaining avocado oil enriched in alkyl polyols and/or acetylated derivatives thereof from at least avocado seeds, said avocado seeds accounting for 10 to 50% by weight relative to the total weight of avocado used, including the following:
