Black Currant oil is very high in an essential fatty acid called GLA (gamma-linolenic acid). GLA is very difficult to get in the typical diet. GLA is a unique omega-6 fatty acid that promotes healthy skin, hair and nails. Black Currant oil is also high in Alpha Linolenic Acid (ALA), a plant-based omega-3. Fortifeye Black Currant Oil has 140mg of GLA in each gel cap!
GLA, a derivative of omega-6, has been studied for its role in supporting a healthy tear film. Many eye care professionals pair 140mg of GLA with rTG-form omega-3 as part of a daily eye wellness routine.
The typical Standard American Diet (SAD) is too high in omega-6 fatty acids and too low in omega-3 fatty acids, and is filled with processed sugar, saturated fats and highly refined carbohydrates. The team at Fortifeye Vitamins recommends adjusting to a balanced, nutrient-dense way of eating like the Lange Survival Diet to support wellness in the eyes and entire body.

Not all omega-6 fatty acids are created equal. GLA is a distinctive omega-6 that the body uses differently than linoleic acid and arachidonic acid. However, it is very difficult to get a meaningful amount of GLA in our typical American diet, so supplementing with a good GLA supplement is a great benefit.
The body converts GLA to Dihomo gamma linolenic acid (DGLA), a precursor of Prostaglandin PGE1. PGE1 supports the production of a healthy tear film.
Studies indicate that GLA works synergistically with EPA from omega-3 fish oil. The combination of a good omega-3 like Fortifeye Super Omega or Fortifeye Super Omega 3 Max with Fortifeye Black Currant Oil/GLA supports eye comfort and whole-body wellness naturally. Fortifeye has taken all of this science and combined it into one complete supplement.
