Perilla Seed Oil is a clear, golden yellow drying oil known to have antiseptic properties which makes this a good oil for facial products.

The seed, which is cold pressed, produces an oil rich in vitamins and amino acids and 50-60% of the oil is Alpha-Linoleic Acid (ALA).  The high ALA content helps the skin and hair retain moisture; the Omega-3 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids which are found in vegetable and oily fish oils, are classified as Essential Fatty Acids and can aid in the treatment of skin disorders such as eczema and psoriasis.

Function

Taken internally Perilla Seed oil has multiple health benefits due to its high ALA content and some studies have shown that it may help prevent arterial blood clots and contribute to expelling fat from the body.

Perilla seed oil has also been used as a flavoring agent in which the aldehyde is the desired flavoring compound.

Omega-3  provided by Perilla Oil has been shown to:

• Reduce the risk of first and second heart attacks
• Reduce the risk of breast and colon cancer
• Inhibit the formation of inflammatory cytoklines which are linked to:
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Colitis
• Atherosclerosis
• Many auto-immune diseases
• Inhibit cardiac arrythmia and maintain cardiac cell energy output
• Maintain youthful cell membrane structure
• Inhibit abnormal blood clotting
• Suppresses chronic inflammation
• Provide neurological benefits
• Fights obesity
• Reduces the severity of allergies
• Reduces the potential for breast cancer

Application

The consumption of sufficient Omega-3 fatty acids as contained in Perilla Oil allows the body to provide adequate alpha-linoeolic acid, which converts to the beneficial EPA and DHA fatty acids.

A daily intake of six 1,000 mg capsules provides 3.3 gm of essential Omega-3 oil, alpha-linolenic acid. Because dietary fiber can absorb both good and bad fatty acids, it is desirable to take Perilla Oil at a different time than fiber. For maximum metabolic regulation in the body, fatty acids require adequate co-dependent nutrients such as magnesium, zinc, vitamins C and B3.

The high content of omega 3 fatty acids, the absence of mercury risk from fish sources, and the beneficial effects of perilla oil are why believe that Perilla Oil is the best supplement to achieve balance in these valuable fatty acids.
