omegaControl
Description
Food supplement containing per capsule: 70 mg of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and 140 mg of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), the founder of the omega-3 family, is an essential fatty acid that the human body is unable to produce. Consequently, a correct intake with the diet represents the only source to take it and start the biosynthesis of the family of omega-3 fatty acids, precursors of lipids with anti-inflammatory activity. Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) is a semi-essential omega-6 fatty acid, from which dihomo gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA) is formed enzymatically, a precursor of prostaglandins of the 1 series (PGE1 - anti-inflammatory prostaglandins); GLA is scarcely present in foods of the usual diet, while it is present in some plants, such as borage. The biological activity of GLA is well documented in scientific literature for the hydration and elasticity of the dermis. The formulation with gamma and alpha-linolenic acids provides the balance between omega-6 and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids to meet the need for cell membrane turnover and formation for all types of tissue, as well as the formation of lipid mediators involved in inflammatory and anti-inflammatory phenomena, in the modulation of the immune response and in the trophism of the skin tissue. This balance, depending on the lifestyle adopted and the conditions of exposure to different agents (smoke, drugs, light) or in the case of excess radical stress, can be compromised.
OmegaControl has a 2:1 ratio between the two omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, gamma-linolenic and alpha-linolenic, to be taken in case of lack of intake from the diet. Its ingredients act on the modulation of the pro and anti-inflammatory cascades, also involved in the immune response, for the natural balance of the cell membrane and skin trophism, keeping the level of free radicals under control.
Vitamin C contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system and the immune system, as well as to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue; to normal collagen formation for the normal function of the skin. It also contributes to the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E. Vitamin C and E contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Borage oil contributes to the integrity and functionality of cell membranes, to the trophism and functionality of the skin (astaxanthin is an antioxidant).
Ingredients
