GSE - Omega 3 perilla oil capsules (organic) - 90 capsules

Perilla oil is a dietary supplement containing alpha-linolenic acid (omega 3) and is therefore an excellent source of unsaturated vegetable fatty acids. It even contains over 60 % of the important omega-3 fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid. Omega-3 fatty acids have a supporting effect as food components in regulating cholesterol levels. The cold-pressed oil from the seeds of the perilla plant is available in capsules.

Omega-3 fatty acids are vital (essential) for humans. The body cannot produce them itself, which is why they must be taken in regularly with food. Omega-3 fatty acids can help to reduce diet-related elevated blood lipid levels. They help to keep blood lipid levels (cholesterol, triglycerides) in balance. This counteracts deposits on the vascular wall, which in turn keeps the blood vessels healthy. The German Nutrition Society (DGE) recommends increasing the consumption of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA).

The oil from the seeds of the perilla plant has a very high percentage of polyunsaturated fatty acids. These are characterised by a nutritionally favourable ratio to each other: Omega-3 fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) : omega-6 fatty acid linoleic acid : omega-9 fatty acid oleic acid = 60 : 15 : 15.

Compared to other vegetable oils, perilla oil is characterised by the highest content of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). The "fish oil fatty acids" eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and decosahexaenoic acid (DHA) can be formed in the body from this important omega-3 fatty acid. Compared to these, it has the decisive advantage that it is less susceptible to oxidation and does not have the intrusive fishy flavour.
