talk about a very cool oil: Argan Oil comes from a tree that's been around for over 1-1/2 million years. The tree can live as long as 200 years but only grows in a few places -- namely Morocco. Thus the reason that sometimes it's referred to as "Moroccan Oil". It's rich in skin-loving fatty acids and Vitamin E; great for helping to heal scars, is said to increase skin elasticity. But the really great news is the goat story: supposedly goats love to eat the fruit but can't digest the kernals (where the oil resides). So if you want argan kernels, you just pick through goat poop during ripe argan fruit season, grind those kernals up and there's your precious argan oil. I'm told the argan oil I bought didn't go through a goat's intentines. But I don't know that for sure.
