Blackcurrant seed oil is a nutritional supplement. It’s rich in both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty
acids that are important for maintaining joints’ cell structure and function and may fight joint
inflammation.

Oil produced from blackcurrant seeds contains 13% omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and 17%
omega-6 gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). GLA is an essential fatty acid that’s important for
maintaining a joint’s cell structure and function. Your body converts it into hormone-like
substances called prostaglandins, which regulate your immune system and fight joint
inflammation. GLA might also suppress inflammatory responses by directly acting on some
inflammatory cells.

Bottles contain sixty 500 mg capsules. Recommended daily serving is 2 capsules.
