hey it’s me again in this video we’re

going to talk about something called G L

a gamma linolenic acid now in some

recent videos that I’ve done on fats

I’ve talked about the difference between

omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids omega-6

being more inflammatory like the soy the

corn the canola the cottonseed oil do

you want to avoid which is in most

dressings that you would buy I mean look

the first ingredient it’s hard to find a

dressing without soy or corn oil or even

canola I would avoid it

plus it’s GMO so I wanted to

differentiate this fat from the other

one because this one even though it’s

omega-6 it’s anti-inflammatory in fact

it’s a very powerful anti-inflammatory

fatty acid it’s in board’s oil black

currant seed oil evening primrose oil

hemp oil but borage has been most GLA so

that’s probably one I would recommend

going with so it’s really beneficial for

the skin Seema psoriasis flaky skin

various inflammatory conditions like

rheumatoid arthritis osteoarthritis and

inflammation in your arteries one of the

big problems in cardiovascular disease

is the inflammation

well GLA is anti-inflammatory so to be

really good for the heart and it’s good

for asthma and the last thing it’s

really beneficial for is the endocrine

system specifically female hormones

menopausal so if you’re menopausal have

these other issues definitely get some

GLA and I also recommend combining this

with your healthy omega-3 fatty acids

which is the virgin cod liver oil egg

yolks of course chia seed is very high

in omega-3 so if we combine the healthy

omega-3 with the healthy omega-6 you’re

going to be in good shape just to remind

you a mega tree would be like fish oils

nuts like walnuts egg yolks chia seed

all real good

officials specifically my favorite which

is virgin cod liver oil will also give

you another healthy fat called DHA which

is really good for the brain and the

retina alright well thank you so much
