The combination of gamma linolenic acid and natural pectin in blackcurrant seeds acts as membrane lubricant, helping relieve dry eye symptoms, and aiding with normal joint function.
Blackcurrant seed oil has one of the highest contents of essential fatty acids, meaning it can help regulate hormonal imbalance and speed up metabolism.
The blackcurrant seed oil is extracted using supercritical CO2 which extracts lipid components in a gentle, safe, and chemical-free way. The whole process is done in a clean environment, excluding any external impurities.
For our blackcurrant seed oil we use Miron glass violet bottles, a unique scientifically researched type of glass packaging known as biophotonic. This researched violet glass protects, prolongs and revitalises the energy stored inside the natural ingredients in the product. It also filters out harmful rays while filtering in infrared, ultraviolet and violet lights, which prolongs the shelf life and efficacy of the product. Due to a particular mix of minerals present inside the Miron glass, this bottle also ensures optimal preservation of the nutrients.
You can also try substituting berries for blackcurrants in your yogurt or salad. Or try this blackcurrant jam from BBC Good Food. The smell of sweet berries cooking over a stove could be therapeutic in itself.
Both blackcurrant berries and seed oil are considered safe at recommended doses. However, the supplements have been known to cause some side effects such as soft stools, mild diarrhea, and intestinal gas.
The objective of this study was to assess the clinical efficacy and side effects of blackcurrant seed oil (BCSO), in a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, 24-week trial in patients with RA and active synovitis. BCSO is rich in gammalinolenic acid (GLA) and alphalinolenic acid (ALA). Both GLA and eicosapentaenoic acid which derives from ALA suppress inflammation and joint tissue injury in animal models. Treatment with BCSO resulted in reduction in signs and symptoms of disease activity in patients with RA (P

In the scientific community, there is a tendency towards searching for alternative plant oils with an interesting fatty acid profile, biologically active components and potential health-promoting properties. One of these oils is blackcurrant seed oil, which contains considerable amounts of essential fatty acids. Apart from linoleic and α-linolenic acids, blackcurrant seed oil contains a small amount of stearidonic acid and is exceptionally abundant in γ-linolenic acid (up to 20 % of total fatty acids), both of which are uncommon components of plant oils [6, 7]. In the body, γ-linolenic acid is a precursor for the production of eicosanoids and can be synthesised to some limited extent from α-linoleic acid [8]. Furthermore, in addition to an interesting fatty acid profile, blackcurrant seed oil has also been reported to be a good source of tocopherols and sterols (1.1 g and 6.5 g/100 g of oil, respectively) [7]. Previous studies have demonstrated several biological activities of this oil, of which immunomodulating and anti-inflammatory are the most documented [8, 9]. Some clinical trials on the application of blackcurrant seed oil for the prevention of hypertension and atopic dermatitis have also been performed [10, 11]. 041b061a72
