EPA + GLA

Anti-inflammatory effects: Inflammation is an important state that is necessary for the immune system to trigger a defense reaction against threats. However, when it is too intense, it may become dangerous. EPA and GLA reduce the spread and intensity of inflammation. They have been shown to decrease the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. During clinical trials, they have been shown to provide valuable support in diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and arthritis. This is because they not only reduce inflammation, but also relieve pain. Reducing inflammation, however, does not mean impairing the entire immune system. EPA increases the sensitivity of B lymphocytes to inflammatory factors and facilitates the release of antibodies, which improves the fight against infections.

Supports weight management: Scientific results have proven that EPA intake is associated with a decrease of body fat. This compound affects levels of leptin, the satiety hormone. It also intensifies metabolism, increasing mitochondrial activity, and facilitates the switch of metabolism to using fats as an energy source. GLA, in turn, can help to prevent the yo-yo effect, which often occurs after a weight-loss diet and, when the body returns to its normal eating regime. This is because it not only boosts metabolism, but also changes the way the body stores energy reserves. The combination of these two healthy fatty acids is therefore a valuable support for anyone watching their weight.

Mitigates PMS and menopause symptoms: Research findings indicate that increased symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and menopause are often accompanied by GLA deficiency. Regular intake of GLA and EPA has been proven to help relieve PMS symptoms, such as swelling and soreness of the breasts, bloating or acne. It also reduces the frequency and intensity of hot flashes and night sweats during menopause. In addition, GLA helps to increase bone mineral density and supports the prevention of osteoporosis, which can be a concern particularly for women after menopause. EPA, on the other hand, has an excellent effect on mood. During studies, it was observed that it can reduce agitation, anxiety and irritability. The synergistic action of these two compounds can provide relief from the ailments that many women struggle with.
