Essential Living Oils (60 capsules)

Vegan alternative to fish oil supplements 

Contains pure, natural plant based sources of GLA, ALA, EPA and DHA. Ingredients are oils from the seeds of Borage, Sunflower, Avocado, Perilla, Flax, Green Tea, Olive and Rice. The cold-pressed extraction process is used to preserve and protect the natural properties of these high quality plant based sources of fatty acids. Vitamin E and important compounds like Campesterol, b-sitosterol, Stigmasterol and Oryzanol, as well as important nutrients and micronutrients are included. Award-winning microbiologist, Dr. Iichiroh Ohhira, formulated this product as a substitute for fish oils some of which are known to contain contaminants such as pesticides, DDT, lindane and PCBs.
