EFA-FX^® Cream by Sasha Korinn^® - 1.5 ounces

Concerns

Premature thinning of the skin, subsequent loss of elasticity and skin firmness are concerns with aging. Essential fatty acids are missing from our diet and they are essential as our bodies do not produce them - we are all aware of essential fatty acids when it comes to consuming them in the form of omega-3 and omega-6 fish oils. There are only two essential fatty acids, namely alpha linoleic acid (an omega-3 fatty acid) and linolenic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid). There are other fatty acids that are considered "conditionally essential". They have many functions including a role in the eicosanoid pathways involved in inflammaiton and cell function, as endocannabinoids which affect inflammation, as lipoxins which reduce inflammation in the body, and in lipid rafts that affect cellular signalling, among others. Research efforts have focused mostly on animal sources of essential fatty acids and not on the plant sources of them. Hence, EFA-FX^® by Sasha Korinn^® harnesses the essential fatty acids from at least 9 sources of plant oils !

Solutions

A proprietary complex of essential fatty acids blended to replenish deficiency in damaged skin and thin skin. This breakthrough technology is a new paradigm in the management of damaged skin. These essential fatty acids are necessary structural blocks in the maintenance and repair of dermal cell walls. The essential omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids cannot be synthesized in the human body and their derivatives are long chain PUFAs. The Aborigines of the Australian continent have used essential fatty acids from emu oil, a flightless bird, for their healing powers on the skin for thousands of years. EFA-FX^® by Sasha Korinn^® has gone beyond the animal sources to provide these essential fatty acids from plant sources - the derivatives of omega-3 fatty acids in our bodies are eicosapentaenoic acid and docosaheaxaenoic acid - the derivatives of omega-6 fatty acids in humans are gamma-linolenic acid, DGLA and arachidonic acid.  A deficiency of essential fatty acids derived from food sources has been shown to have dermatitis, hair loss and poor wound healing. EFA-FX^® by Sasha Korinn^® addresses these special needs of the skin by providing these essential fatty acids directly to damaged and thin and aging skin.
