Introduction:
Perilla oil is obtained from the seeds of annual herbs of the genus Perilla, usually Perilla frutescens. The seeds contain 35 to 45 percent oil which is obtained by pressing. Perilla oil is used along with synthetic resins in the production of varnishes. Perilla oil dries faster than linseed oil and on drying forms a film that is harder and yellows more than that formed by linseed oil. The paint and varnish industry accounts for the largest usage. Perilla oil also is important in the manufacture of printing inks and linoleum, and in more ancient times was a critical component in creating durable earthen floors.
Perilla oil is a very rich source of alpha-linolenic acid. About 50 to 60% of perilla oil is alpha-linolenic acid. Alpha-linolenic acid is an n-3 (omega-3) all-cis polyunsaturated fatty acid containing 18 carbon atoms and three double bonds. It is also known as ALA; ALA, 18:3n-3; 9,12, 15-octadecatrienoic acid and (Z,Z, Z)-9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid.

Function:
1. to lower blood fat
According to the study by Zhara, perilla oil can prevent the platelet from aggregating, lower the neutral lipids in blood, remove cholesterol and prevent thrombosis.
2. to nourish the brain and enhance memory
DHA synthesized by α- linolenic acid can be found in the cerebral cortex, retina, and germ cell with great quantity. It can also cause the growth of the synapse of cranial nerves cell so as to improve memory.
3. to resist senility
Test by Watababe, an American expert, showed that the intake of purple common perilla oil can obviously improve the activity of a kind of superoxide—dismutase in the erythrocyte so as to obstruct aging effectively.
4. to prevent cancer
Purple common perilla oil can inhibit the incidence of breast cancer caused by DMBA, a kind of chemical carcinogen. It can reduce the activity of ornithine decarboxylose in the omentum of colon so as to prevent the colon cancer.
5. to prevent allergy
Studies by Horri and professor Aogu, with Nagoya Municipal University respectively showed that feeding the white rat with perilla oil reduce the amount of leukotrienes and PAF (platelet intermediates activation factors) obviously so as to prevent allergy and refine skin

Precautions:
Infants, young children, pregnant women and nursing mothers should only use perilla oil if recommended and monitored by a physician. Because of perilla oil's possible antithrombotic activity, hemophiliacs and those taking **** should exercise caution in its use. Perilla oil intake should be stopped in those having surgical procedures.
