Waihi Bush - Omega 3 Super Boost 500ml

Because the goodness of pure, fresh, cold pressed, unrefined, extra virgin flax seed oil is enriched with blackcurrant seed and evening primrose seed oils, this blend has a fatty acid profile that includes five important polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids.
 
From flax seed oil we have the primary Omega-3 alpha linolenic acid (ALA), the primary Omega-6 linolenic acid (LA) and the monounsaturated Omega-9 oleic acid.   Blackcurrant seed oil contributes the secondary Omega-3 stearidonic acid (SDA) and the secondary Omega-6 gamma linolenic acid (GLA).   We add evening primrose seed oil to top up the GLA to the right balance for your body.   It is easier for your body to utilise these secondary Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids because no conversion is required.
 
SDA and GLA are the building blocks used by your body to produce ‘good’ prostaglandins – those with anti-inflammatory and anti-clotting effects.
 
This wide range of naturally occurring fatty acids is what makes flax boost so special.
