Why life’sGLA™ ‘25’ n-6 Oil?


Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are just as essential as vitamins, mineral salts and proteins. They are basic substances from which not only skin lipids (ceramides) and cell membranes (phospholipids) but also hormones and autocoids (e.g.prostaglandins) are synthesized. When applied topically, unsaturated fatty acids as contained in Starflower Oil which is especially rich in gamma linolenic acid (>23%) has many benefits:

Improved elasticity of the skin
Enhanced barrier function of the skin
Reduced transepidermal water loss
The skin appears younger and smoother
