DESCRIPTION
Blackcurrant Seed Oil is a source of Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA), the most health-supporting omega-6 fatty acid. GLA is considered a nutrient and a semi-essential fatty acid.
GLA has been shown to have lipid-modifying properties, supports PGE1 (prostaglandin-1), an eicosanoid which may contribute to balancing the immune system.
The human body is made up of approximately 100 trillion cells, each contained by membranes on which the majority of the work of the cells occurs. The essential fatty acid (EFA) makeup of these cell membranes strongly influences their structure and function. An optimal EFA balance in the membranes helps optimise the approximately 100,000 chemical reactions that together make up our metabolism.
The EFAs are also essential metabolic starting points for the production of substances called prostaglandins (PGs). These are hormone-like messenger substances important for the optimal functioning and homeostatic balance of all the organ systems.
