 General
Nutrient Support
Essential fatty acids, a part of the PUFA family (polyunsaturated fatty acid),
are known as the "essential fats". Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids are vital to
health and must be obtained through diet because they are not reproduced by the
human body.
The Omega-3 long chain fatty
acids, EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), are found
almost uniquely in foods of marine origin. It is the long chain Omega-3s that
the body needs to synthesize and ensure proper body function. Clinical studies
in the past 30 years have regarded Omega-3 fatty acids as protective,
therapeutic and essential for growth and development throughout the human
lifecycle.
Borage oil, an Omega-6 fatty acid
derived from the plant, Borage officnalis, is the most concentrated source of
GLA (gamma-linolenic acid). GLA is beneficial for skin moisture and has been
popularly used by women suffering from PMS (premenstrual syndrome).
Omega-3 fatty acids and GLA from
Borage Oil as a combined formula may have a calming effect by increasing the
amount of the body's beneficial anti-inflammatory prostaglandin of the series 1
and 3. Omega-3 fatty acids and GLA together provide optimal nutritional support
and are "essential" throughout all stages of life.
Warning: Do not
use fish oil if you are allergic to iodine, are using blood thinners or
anticipate surgery. Consult with your physician before taking fish oils if you
are pregnant or diabetic. Keep out of the reach of children.
