Black Currant Oil
Black Currant oil is known for its naturally occurring rich content of essential Omega-6 fatty acid GLA (gamma-linolenic C18:3n-6) and Omega-3 fatty acid ALA (alpha-linolenic C18:3n-3). The GLA content of this ingredient typically falls in the 14% range, giving rise to its popularity in the nutraceutical and nutritional supplement industry. Additionally, black currant oil has made its mark in the cosmetic and personal-care industry in topical skin care products as a skin-protectant and for antioxidant properties.
