A specialist in obesity and metabolism, Fran Suárez, discusses the importance of reducing inflammation and pain to achieve optimal health and weight loss. He explains that candida fungus, which thrives in high-glucose environments, can cause pain and inflammation in the body. Suárez recommends using gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid found in evening primrose oil, blackcurrant oil, or borage oil, to block pain and inflammation. GLA has been shown to be effective in reducing inflammation, pain, and neuropathy associated with conditions such as multiple sclerosis and diabetes. Suárez also notes that GLA can help accelerate fat loss by breaking down fat cells. He recommends taking 6 pearls of 500mg GLA per day, up to 3000mg per day to accelerate fat loss. Suárez emphasizes the importance of using high-quality, hexane-free GLA oil to avoid negative contraindications.
