Aceite de Onagra

Acerca de los aceites botánicos

El uso de aceites botánicos se remonta a miles de años, con raíces en culturas tan diversas como los antiguos sumerios, chinos y el Imperio Romano.[1]

Los aceites botánicos se preparan a partir de la planta entera, preservando su aroma, ingredientes activos principales y la esencia de la planta. Los aceites botánicos hechos de diversas plantas se han usado a lo largo de la historia para honrar a los dioses,[2] preparar cuerpos para funerales,[3] preservar la belleza, ayudar con la higiene y tratar una amplia variedad de condiciones médicas. Las instrucciones para la preparación y uso de plantas como medicina están catalogadas en las obras de Dioscórides, De materia medica.[4], ya en el primer siglo.

La tecnología moderna ha permitido identificar y estudiar las partes activas de las plantas por su papel en la salud y su utilidad contra diversas condiciones médicas. El valor de los aceites botánicos ha resistido la prueba del tiempo.  

Las propiedades de la onagra

La onagra es una flor silvestre que comenzó en América Central y México hace unos 70,000 años y viajó hacia el norte para crecer por todo Estados Unidos, particularmente a lo largo de riberas y en suelos arenosos. Es una planta con flores amarillas que solo se abren por la noche, lo que le da su nombre.[5]

Los colonos europeos llevaron la raíz de regreso a Inglaterra y Alemania, donde se consumía como alimento, y a Italia, desde donde se difundió por toda Europa. Aparece por primera vez en referencias botánicas en 1587, y durante el siglo 16siglo siglo fue apodada “cura para todo de los reyes” por su utilidad en muchas enfermedades. Su nombre latino, Oenothera, significa “una planta cuyo jugo puede causar sueño”, capturando sus cualidades sedantes.[6] Los nativos americanos frotaban onagra en sus mocasines para enmascarar su olor y ayudarse a acercarse a los animales. Se creía que traía suerte en la caza, posiblemente por esta razón.[7]  

Nutrientes

Toda la planta de onagra puede usarse como alimento. La raíz con sabor a nuez era consumida por los nativos americanos.[8] y los ingleses[9] y los alemanes la llamaban rampion.[10] y lo preferían por ser más nutritivo que la carne de res.[11] Las hojas jóvenes pueden comerse crudas en ensaladas.

Las hojas se vuelven muy amargas, pero pueden cocinarse en varios cambios de agua para hacerlas más agradables al paladar. Las semillas comestibles se han usado para reemplazar las semillas de amapola. Es de las semillas de donde se extrae el valioso aceite de onagra. El aceite de semilla es la única parte de la planta que todavía se consume rutinariamente, y los ácidos grasos esenciales son los únicos nutrientes de la planta que han sido estudiados.

Las grasas de la onagra son ácidos grasos esenciales. Los nutrientes esenciales son aquellos que el cuerpo no puede producir, deben obtenerse a través de la dieta. El ácido linoleico, el ácido graso dominante en el aceite de onagra, también es abundante en verduras de hoja verde, semillas y nueces.[12]

Aunque los ácidos grasos omega-3 son más conocidos por sus beneficios para la salud, la dieta y la salud de la piel y el cabello requieren un equilibrio entre ácidos grasos omega-6 y omega-3. La dieta estadounidense tiende a contener una gran cantidad de omega-6, que pueden convertirse en ácido araquidónico inflamatorio, especialmente cuando su fuente es la carne. Las fuentes vegetales de ácidos grasos omega-6 se convierten en ácido gamma-linolénico, que es antiinflamatorio, antes de convertirse en ácido araquidónico.[13]

Aunque el aceite de onagra tiene principalmente ácido linoleico, también contiene hasta un 10 % de ácido gamma-linolénico (GLA).[14] El GLA en el cuerpo se convierte en dihomo-GLA (DGLA), que es antiinflamatorio, antes de convertirse en ácido araquidónico. La conversión requiere magnesio, zinc y vitaminas C, B3 y B6 adecuados.[15] El GLA es abundante en la leche materna humana, donde parece ayudar a controlar el nivel de IgE, una inmunoglobulina asociada con alergias.[16] Además de la leche materna, el GLA es escaso en la alimentación, proveniente solo de semillas de grosella negra, borraja y de la espirulina.[17]

El aceite de onagra también contiene ácido oleico, ácido palmítico y ácido esteárico. Estas grasas contribuyen a la naturaleza emoliente del aceite de onagra, lo que lo hace útil en cosméticos, pero estas grasas son abundantes en muchas plantas. De manera similar, el aceite de onagra es una fuente de esteroles vegetales, que ayudan a reducir el colesterol, pero están ampliamente disponibles en otros alimentos vegetales. La onagra se valora principalmente por su alto contenido de GLA.[18]  

Preparación del aceite de onagra

Prensado en frío

El prensado por expulsión se refiere al proceso de descomponer lentamente las semillas de onagra bajo presión mecánica, como dos placas metálicas giratorias, para liberar las grasas. Prensado en frío significa que el aceite fue prensado por expulsión a baja temperatura.

La baja temperatura evita que el aceite se estropee[19] y ayuda a conservar las propiedades beneficiosas de la planta, incluidos los esteroles vegetales.[20] La volatilidad de los compuestos valiosos que se extraen hace que sea un proceso muy delicado que debe realizarse en un rango estrecho de temperatura.[21]

Extracción con solvente

La cantidad de aceite obtenida de la semilla de onagra es bastante baja, pero muy valiosa. La cantidad de aceite extraído aumenta considerablemente al usar un solvente como el hexano durante el proceso de extracción. Luego, el hexano se elimina bajo presión a bajas temperaturas.

En un esfuerzo por eliminar por completo el riesgo de exposición a solventes, diferentes empresas han explorado métodos alternativos. Uno de ellos es la extracción con fluido supercrítico usando dióxido de carbono. Esto implica realizar la extracción del aceite bajo condiciones cuidadosamente controladas de temperatura y presión, utilizando dióxido de carbono para extraer la máxima cantidad de aceite.[22]

Usos medicinales del aceite de onagra

Usos en la medicina ayurvédica y china

El aceite de onagra se considera refrescante y nutritivo en la medicina ayurvédica, el sistema tradicional de medicina de la India, lo que lo hace útil para condiciones inflamatorias. Se utiliza en eczema, alergias, enfermedades autoinmunes y deficiencias inmunitarias.[23]

Tanto la medicina ayurvédica como la medicina tradicional china reconocen el valor del aceite de onagra para manejar los ciclos reproductivos femeninos, y en la medicina china se usa para mover la sangre y mejorar la circulación.[24]  

Salud de la mujer

El aceite de onagra es más buscado como ayuda para la salud de la mujer, incluyendo quistes mamarios y dolor (también llamado mastalgia).[25] También es útil para el síndrome premenstrual[26], la hipertensión en el embarazo, facilitando el parto[27] y para manejar los sofocos en la menopausia[28]. Se necesitan ensayos más grandes[29] para confirmar su beneficio en el tratamiento, pero la acción antiinflamatoria de la onagra respalda sus usos tradicionales para estas condiciones.[30]

Eccema

Desde la década de 1930, los investigadores creen que una deficiencia de ácidos grasos esenciales (AGE) o una anomalía en el metabolismo de los AGE está en la raíz del eczema. Las personas con eczema tienen mucho ácido linoleico, pero pueden tener problemas para convertirlo en GLA antiinflamatorio. Si eso es cierto, debería ser útil suplementar con aceite de onagra rico en GLA.[31]

Los estudios no han mostrado beneficios consistentes, pero puede ser cuestión de encontrar la dosis adecuada.[32] Puede ser útil para manejar los efectos secundarios del isotretinoína, un medicamento para el acné.[33] Se necesitan más estudios para determinar su eficacia.

Salud cardiovascular

Se ha encontrado que el aceite de onagra ayuda con el dolor y la pérdida de función nerviosa asociada con la neuropatía diabética. Los resultados requirieron tomar una dosis alta de aceite durante seis meses, y funcionó mejor en personas con el azúcar en sangre bien regulado.[34]

La onagra también puede ser útil para controlar el azúcar en sangre en mujeres con diabetes gestacional. Se requieren más estudios.[35] Debido a que ayuda a la circulación, hay interés en su capacidad para mejorar los síntomas de la enfermedad de Raynaud, pero nuevamente, se necesitan más estudios.  

Artritis

Se han estudiado los ácidos grasos esenciales por su capacidad para aliviar el dolor de la artritis. Las grasas del aceite de onagra aumentan directamente la cantidad de DGLA en la sangre. La DGLA es una grasa fuertemente antiinflamatoria que debería ayudar a reducir el dolor y proteger las articulaciones.

Algunos estudios son prometedores, pero se necesita más evidencia antes de recomendar la onagra como tratamiento de primera línea para la artritis reumatoide.[36]  

Cosméticos

El aceite de onagra se usa en productos cosméticos como jabones y lociones. Se absorbe bien en la piel y la suaviza al infundir sus aceites beneficiosos. Tópicamente, a menudo se usa junto con un aceite portador que mejora la estabilidad de la onagra.[37]  

Usos tradicionales

Los nativos americanos usaban las hojas de onagra para hacer cataplasmas que curaban moretones y hemorroides. Se consideraba un remedio para el reumatismo, la parálisis y la gota. La planta entera, preparada como té o tintura, se usaba como sedante para el insomnio, la inquietud y para calmar los pulmones en congestiones como la bronquitis.[38]

Su uso para la inquietud probablemente llevó a la sugerencia moderna de que es útil para el TDAH, pero aún no hay suficiente investigación que demuestre ese efecto. También se ha usado para ayudar al cuerpo a recuperarse de los efectos del exceso de alcohol.[39]  

 

Preguntas sobre el aceite de onagra

¿Qué debo buscar en un aceite de onagra? La mayoría del aceite de onagra se vende en cápsulas. El GLA es bastante inestable y se enrancia rápidamente, así que busque productos a los que se les haya añadido un antioxidante, como la vitamina E. Use fabricantes en los que pueda confiar. Hay muchos casos de aceite de onagra siendo reemplazado en cápsulas por aceites más baratos como el de soja o cártamo.[40]  

¿Puedo tener alergia al aceite de onagra? Las alergias a la onagra son raramente reportadas, pero son posibles. Si sabe que tiene alergia a las flores de onagra o al GLA, no use onagra tópicamente ni internamente. Consulte a su médico sobre pruebas para alergia a la onagra u otras plantas de la familia onagraceae.  

¿Es seguro usar aceite de onagra en niños? El aceite de onagra ha sido estudiado y se ha encontrado seguro en niños. No es un alérgeno común, pero si su hijo tiene alergia a la onagra u otras plantas de la familia onagraceae, no use aceite de onagra tópicamente ni internamente como suplemento nutricional.

¿Puedo cocinar con aceite de onagra? No usaría aceite de onagra para cocinar. Es extremadamente inestable bajo cualquier calor, pero la planta es comestible y nutritiva. Las hojas jóvenes pueden añadirse a ensaladas y las raíces pueden comerse. Un aceite portador como el aceite de oliva podría infusionarse con flores de onagra para capturar algunas de las propiedades de la planta. El aceite podría usarse luego como usaría el aceite de oliva.[41]  

¿Cuál es la vida útil del aceite de onagra? ¡Muy corta! Guardado bajo condiciones adecuadas, el aceite de onagra solo dura alrededor de seis meses. Se añade vitamina E al aceite de onagra para protegerlo del estrés oxidativo que se forma cuando el aceite comienza a enranciarse, prolongando su vida útil. Los aceites de onagra deben refrigerarse y, al usarlos en preparaciones, deben añadirse después de cualquier paso que implique calor.  

¿No obstruirá el aceite de onagra mis poros? El aceite de onagra es un buen emoliente, lo que significa que es bueno para descomponer y suavizar la piel. Aun así, los poros del rostro pueden ser más sensibles a la obstrucción por aceites espesos. Si tiende a tener piel grasa, el aceite de onagra puede ser mejor usarlo en otras partes del cuerpo.  

Precauciones y consideraciones

Ha habido algunas evidencias de que la onagra puede aumentar la actividad convulsiva. No use onagra, aceite de onagra ni aceite esencial de onagra si tiene epilepsia o es propenso a convulsiones de cualquier tipo.

La onagra puede aumentar el sangrado, por lo que no debe usarse si tiene un trastorno de sangrado o coagulación, está tomando medicamentos anticoagulantes o se someterá a una cirugía. El aceite de onagra puede causar molestias estomacales, náuseas, diarrea, heces sueltas o dolores de cabeza.
