Within the family of nut based oils, pistachio oil is considered a "medium weight oil" in its molecular structure. What that means, is its slightly "heavier" than oils like pecan, but not quite as heavy as macadamia nut oil. The benefits to using a medium weight oil generally deals with absorption thru the skin layers. When you apply pistachio oil to your skin, a percentage will sink in, and a percentage will stay on the surface layers. This quality makes it an excellent blending oil depending upon what formulation you are creating. For instance, if you are designing a nigh time cold cream, I would certainly recommend this oil to be blended into your formulation. Also works great in body scrubs, healing salves, blooming bath oils and let's not forget cold process soaps.

6. Heart health:
Eating pistachio in moderation can be very beneficial for the health of the heart. It is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids that help to reduce high blood pressure. Phytosterol in pistachio reduces the absorption of dietary cholesterol from different foods. This helps to bring down the levels of bad cholesterol in the blood. Bad cholesterol chokes up the arteries, preventing the blood supply to the heart. Consumption of pistachio also reduces stress related to elevated blood pressure.

11. Nervous system:
The high levels of Vitamin B6 in pistachio help in the formation of amino acids. Amino acid, in turn develops amines that act as neurotransmitters. Vitamin B6 also synthesizes myelin, which forms an insulating cover around the nerve fiber for proper transportation of signals. Pistachio also produces serotonin, melatonin and GABA, which help to reduce stress. It also contains trace amounts of copper, which is responsible for neurotransmission.

12. Weight management:
Pistachio is high in monounsaturated fats. Monounsaturated fats are soluble in nature; they do not cause weight gain. It is rich in fiber, which keeps you full for a longer time, preventing overeating. Protein in pistachio uses the fats and burns them, instead of storing them. Do not consume pistachio in high quantities, as it is a calorie-rich food.
