• Perilla seed oil is rich in alphalinolenic acid (ALA),which is a type of omega3 essential fatty acids. When we consume perilla oil, our body converts the alphalinolenic acid into the two most prominent omega3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA. I hope you are aware of the several EPA, DHA benefits on our body. Omega 3 provided by perilla seed oil has proven to be beneficial for our body in the following ways: reducing the risk of breast and colon cancer, heart attacks, Inhibiting cardiac arrhythmia and abnormal blood clotting etc.
