Product Description
Nervonic acid is a very-long-chain omega-9 from the seed of Acer truncatum (purpleblow maple). Powder grades are about 70–90%; the oil is about 5–10%.
It is a structural fatty acid studied in myelin and nerve lipids, and it is sold as a specialty oil or a concentrated powder for capsules. It is not a generic maple flavour and not an EPA/DHA oil.
When buying, choose oil or powder, set the nervonic percent, and confirm the seed source. Most vegetable oils contain only traces.
