A: We need a dietary source of essential fatty acids. One is gamma-linolenic acid-a precursor to the body’s prostaglandins - master hormones that control many functions. But poor diet, saturated fats and alcohol can cause GLA deficiency leading to conditions like heart disease and premenstrual stress. A food source of GLA is important, especially for women. Known GLA foods are mother’s milk and oil extracts of evening primrose, black currant and borage seeds. Spirulina is a potent source, an astonishing 1% by weight. Eight Spirulina tablets contain GLA equivalent to a capsule of primrose oil. Many women have appreciated Spirulina’s benefits for PMS (pre menotural syndrome) and for healthy, beautiful skin.
