Black currant oil is derived from the seeds of the black currant plant and is a rich source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid. GLA is known to have anti-inflammatory properties and may help alleviate symptoms associated with conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and atopic dermatitis. Black currant oil is also used as a dietary supplement to support overall health and wellness, including cardiovascular health and immune function. It is available in capsule or liquid form.
