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.

Vitamin C- Perhaps the most popular vitamin, L-ascorbic acid is viewed as an essential nutrient and is required to synthesize collagen in humans. The L-enantiomer of ascorbic acid, or Vitamin C for short, is the famous ingredient of oranges and other citrus fruits. It has been said that a glass of pure squeezed orange juice provides the daily requirement of Vitamin C. While the antioxidant function is deemed important, other biosynthetic functions are of vital significance. It provides an electron for eight different enzymes, besides the aforementioned synthesis of collagen; it aids the synthesis of carnitine and neurotransmitters, synthesis and catabolism of tyrosine and the metabolism of microsome. The additional function as a reducing agent, keeping iron and copper at bay is an additional trait.

Vitamin E, an anti-oxidant nutrient, neutralizes free radicals in the human body to prevent cell damage. This fat-soluble vitamin not only aids the formation of red blood cells but also helps in the absorption of vitamins A, C and K. It is also very helpful to fight various ailments.
