General description

Vitamin F is a mixture of the only two essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), such as linoleic acid (LA), and α linolenic acid (ALA) required by humans. α-linolenic acid satisfies the need for an omega-3 fatty acid back-bone structure and linoleic acid satisfies the need for an omega-6 fatty acids back-bone structure.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Vitamin F or linoleic acid exhibits restorative properties and properties, which may aid in skin-care. Therefore, it is used in cosmetics and dermatology.
