The pressed extract of this Peach (Prunus Persica) seed was used as a hair growth product for balding spots and, in some parts of the world, was combined with raw apple cider before application.
Believed to have healing, cleansing, and detoxifying qualities when used on wounds, Prunus Persica Kernel Extract was also used for mouth infections and infected sores and as a softening agent for irritated, chapped, or inflamed skin. It was thought to improve circulation, as well.
