The small, round, juicy berries of the black currant plant are familiar ingredients in herbal teas and jams. However, the tiny seeds inside the berries are a rich source of essential fatty acids (EFAs). Oil produced from black currant seed contains 11-15% omega-3 Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) 13-17% omega-6 Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA) and one of the few plant oils containing Stearidonic Acid (SDA).
