Suggested Use
Providing a highly-concentrated combination of essential fatty acids, Multi EFA capsules are formulated to assist, enhance and maintain cardiovascular, endocrine and immune system functions. The body's natural ability to convert linoleic acid into gamma-linoleic acid is impaired by diets high in meat, eggs, dairy and saturated fats. Certain studies show that when combining the cold water fish, flax seed and borage oils, the benefits are much greater than when taken individually.
EFAs are broken down in the gut (hydrolyzed) and the individual fatty acids are absorbed by the enterocytes lining the gastro-intestinal tract. These enterocytes assemble the fatty acids and glycerol into triglycerides. Triglycerides and other fat solubles nutrients are then collected and assembled into chylomicrons which are absorbed in a similar way as triglycerides are absorbed by the enterocytes. In the tissues, the fatty acids can be metabolized into local hormones.
The lipase secreted by the pancreas and bile synthesized in the liver and secreted from the gallbladder are necessary for the hydrolization process in the gut.
Multi EFA capsules is indicated for liver disorders such as hepatitis, fatty degeneration; skin health such as dry skin and acne; schizophrenia, manic depression, multiple sclerosis, Tourette's syndrome, cerebral palsy and hyperactivity; premenstrual symptoms such as obesity, weight gain, bloating, irritability, nervousness and cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and arterial plaque buildup.
