General Uses Top

Suggest a correction!

Common products: Seeds yield a fixed oil; chemical analyses report high linoleic (18:2) and moderate palmitic (16:0) contents and saponification values typical of non-drying, edible-grade oils. Essential oil from leaves contains sabinene, limonene, alpha-pinene, and beta-caryophyllene, with variation among populations.

Industrial and craft applications: Leaves and stems are used for extraction of essential oil in perfumery and aromatherapy contexts; the oil is also considered for flavor and fragrance applications in foods. No documented use of tannins or fibers.

Food and beverages (non-medicinal): Seeds are roasted and eaten (fried, parched, or as a snack) in Brazil, Paraguay, and adjacent areas. An edible seed oil is expressed and consumed; in Brazil it is a small, traditional cooking oil. Leaf infusion is consumed as a beverage in parts of Brazil.

Colorants and tanning: No documented dyes or tannins reported.

Wood and fiber: No documented timber or fiber uses reported.

Fragrance and cosmetics: Leaf essential oil is used in perfumery and cosmetics as a fragrance material; the plant is cultivated for oil production.

Properties relevant to use: Seed oil chemistry (linoleic–oleic predominance) supports edible, heat-stable applications. Leaf essential oil composition (sabinene, limonene, alpha-pinene, beta-caryophyllene) underlies its aromatic profile.

Standards and regulation: No specific food or cosmetic standards cited.

Sustainability and sourcing: Information on yield, cultivation practices, or wild-harvest impacts is lacking; Brazilian studies note the species’ natural occurrence and mention cultivation but provide few production details.
