GLA
Is Not Only For Women
A
lot of people have the misconception that GLA is only for women. In
actual fact, GLA supplements linoleic acid which is same
as essential amino acids cannot be manufactured by human body, thus need to
obtain from food intake. It
is important for children (cut open the soft gel to empty the liquid and mix
with any food), growing teens, adult and even after menopause and andropause
(male menopause).
