Alpha Linolenic acid (ALA) is one of the most commonly found organic compounds in vegetable oil. Alpha-Linolenic belongs to the group of carboxylic acids. It has an 18 carbon chain along with three cis double bond. This attribute makes it fall in the group of polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid. It is an essential fatty acid. The reason behind this is that alpha-linolenic acid can not be produced by the human body. It has to consume through a diet rich in this acid. Alpha-Linolenic Acid is found in abundance in a lot of variety of seed oils. Rapeseed, flaxseed, soybeans, walnuts are a few examples. Oil from these seeds is enriched with alpha-linolenic acid. Green leaves and all animals that eat a lot of these green leaves are also a very good source of alpha-linolenic acid. Research shows that moderate consumption of alpha-linolenic acid can help prevent a lot of health related issues like coronary heart diseases.

Gamma-Linolenic Acid is an omega-6 fatty acid and is the result of first biochemical step of the body in transforming the essential fatty acid, linoleic acid, into important prostaglandins, which are vital to proper functioning of cells, and essential fatty acids formed from Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) are needed for the structure of each cell. It is good for vasodilatation of blood vessels that can decrease high blood pressure. It also reduces abnormal blood clotting that can decrease heart attack and stroke risk. It provides increased regulation of immune response, and defense against abnormal cell proliferation. It helps control common skin disorder like eczema, and slow down certain aspects of normal aging.

Linoleic Acid belongs to the group of essential fatty acids; it is an unsaturated omega 6 fatty acid. The Linoleic was derived from the word linon, which means “derived from oil”, “olive” or “relating to oleic acid”. Linoic acid affects the metabolism, aiding it to function efficiently. It helps the glucose to reach the muscles cells so the sugar will be prevented from turning into fat. Fats that enter the cell membranes of the muscles are converted into energy, thus, resulting in more energy and weight loss. Linoleic acid also helps in controlling the cholesterol level and preventing cardiovascular diseases. It also has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Oleic Acid  is also known as the Omega 9 fatty acid. It is a monounsaturated fatty acid present in most natural fats. It is naturally found in avocado fruit, apricot seeds, almonds, olive oils and macadamia nuts. It can also be found in the cocoa butter used for making chocolates. Oleic acid is used to make synthetic cheeses and butters, ice creams, and sodas. It helps maintain cholesterol levels, thus, lowering the risks of heart attack, arteriosclerosis, and other such heart diseases. Oleic acid also aids in repairing cellular and tissue damages caused by free radical damages. It may also help in preventing cancer. It also has antioxidant properties that fights premature aging and maintains the skin’s moisture.

Rosemary Extract is derived from a common household herb commonly used in cooking. It contains carnosol, carnosic acid, and caffeic acid which are potent antioxidants that prevents free radicals from damaging the tissues and the cells which may cause serious illness such as cancer and heart problems. It increases the concentration, focus and memory retention. It stimulates the brain and the nerves which help alleviate the mood from depression, mental fatigue and forgetfulness. It is easily absorbed by the intestine, and aids in preventing indigestion, flatulence, and stomach cramps. Rosemary extract is also an effective anti-inflammatory agent, that helps relieves the symptoms of arthritis.

Vitamin E is the name for a group of tocopherols and tocotrienols that are soluble in fat and display antioxidant properties. The most important vitamin out of this group is alpha tocopherol, which professes the highest bioavailability, and therefore, was the most studied Vitamin E. Found in such foods as nuts, seeds, milk, wheat germ and most vegetable oils, this Vitamin is said to be perhaps the most important antioxidant in human nourishment, although this trait is not deemed the imperative reason why Vitamin E is required to be in every diet. Most clinical studies which were supposed to crown Vitamin E as the prevention from prostate cancer or cardiovascular wonder supplement have been either inconclusive or were discontinued due to poor results. Vitamin E deficiency results in neurological and neuromuscular problems, but also in failure to absorb fat.
