Qianzhongdao Perilla Seed Oil

Qianzhongdao Perilla Seed Oil

　　  The raw material for Qianzhongdao Perilla Seed Oil—perilla seeds—comes from high-quality, dual-purpose (edible and medicinal) perilla plants grown in the Wuling Mountain Range. Using advanced equipment and technology, the oil is cold-pressed at low temperatures through a refined production process that fully preserves the plant’s broad-spectrum essential nutrients. In particular, it achieves excellent retention of the essential fatty acid α-linolenic acid, which is not only hard to get from diet but also cannot be synthesized by the body. The oil contains as much as 66.8 grams of α-linolenic acid and 42.9 milligrams of vitamin E per serving, and is completely cholesterol-free. The α-linolenic acid in perilla seed oil serves as a fundamental building block for brain cells and optic nerve cells, offering levels 2–3 times higher than those found in deep-sea fish oil and 5–8 times higher than in walnut oil. Vitamin E acts as an antioxidant and serves as one of the most convenient, affordable, ample, and effective sources for supplementing both α-linolenic acid and vitamin E in the human diet.
