ProEFA provides general nutritional 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 to achieve harmony and well being throughout the month
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. |
