General Information
Gamma-linolenic Acid (GLA) is an essential fatty acid (EFA). It is believed that GLA is beneficial in pre-menstrual syndrome, skin disorders, cholesterol, hypertension, multiple sclerosis, alcoholism, hyperactivity in children, arthritis and other inflammatory conditions and disorders of the immune system. GLA is known to assist in the conversion of Linoleic Acid (which is present in the body) to GLA. EFA's are vital for breaking down accumulated fats in the body. Western diets are generally too high in animal fats, refined products and processed foods. This has impaired the body's ability to produce Gamma-linolenic Acid (GLA). GLA is formed naturally in the body from Linoleic Acid and is an essential element in a healthy metabolism. Without it, fats and toxins accumulate in the body. An excess of accumulated fats in the system has been known to be a contributing factor in obesity, pre-menstrual tension, menopausal problems, heart complaints, skin and mental health problems. House Of Health "GLA 250" delivers 250mg of GLA from 1000mg of Oil of Borage making it one of the most efficacious GLA presentations available. One 1000mg capsule of borage oil is the equivalent of six evening primrose oil capsules. Recent studies have indicated that Essential Fatty Acid (EFA) supplementation can have a dramatic effect on women in menopause who have been under hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
