Omega 6

Omega 6

Omega 6 is a group of polyunsaturated fatty acids, of which linoleic acid (LA) is the best known. The body cannot produce omega 6 fatty acids itself and is therefore dependent on food or supplements. Within this collection you will find supplements that are rich in linoleic acid or GLA (gamma-linolenic acid), often derived from vegetable oils.

This collection contains carefully formulated omega 6 supplements that are sometimes combined with other fatty acids or antioxidants to support absorption or balance.

When do you choose omega 6?

• With an increased need for essential fatty acids
• For skin, hormone or fatty acid metabolism support
• As a supplement to a diet low in vegetable oils
• When using evening primrose oil or borage oil as a natural source of GLA

Characteristics of omega 6:

• Contains linoleic acid or GLA (e.g. from evening primrose or borage oil)
• Often available in combination with omega 3 and 9
• Available in capsules, softgels or liquid oil
• Plant-based, suitable for vegetarians

This collection contains products with clear indication of the omega 6 fatty acid content, suitable for those who want to supplement with linoleic acid or GLA.
