Description
Product of Canada The gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) present in borage seed oil (Borago officinalis), and the eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acids (EPA and DHA) present in many marine oils, are respectively members of the omega-6 and omega-3 families of essential fatty acids. Because they have undergone some degree of metabolic transformation in the species from which they are obtained, they are more efficient precursors for eicosanoids (prostaglandins) than are the parent essential fatty acids from these families, linoleic acid (omega-6) and alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3). Eicosanoids are required for the optimal function of many physiological and metabolic systems in the human body. PLS1019EC120957V2 No fishy aftertaste!
Formulation
