Benefit Evidence
Research sources
Cholesterol (3)
- Outcomes of Perilla Seed Oil as an Additional Neuroprotective Therapy in Patients with Mild to Moderate Dementia: A Randomized Control Trial
PubMed ID: 30543172
Perilla seed oil significantly lowered total and LDL cholesterol in a randomized trial—direct evidence for cholesterol-lowering.
- Effects of marine-derived and plant-derived omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on erythrocyte fatty acid composition in type 2 diabetic patients
PubMed ID: 35144649
Perilla supplementation in T2DM lowered LDL‑C and modified erythrocyte fatty‑acid composition—supports cholesterol/lipid balance.
- [Effects of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids from different sources on glucolipid metabolism in type 2 diabetic patients with dyslipidemia]
PubMed ID: 31177752
Perilla oil lowered LDL‑C and ApoB in T2DM patients compared with other ω‑3 sources—strong comparative clinical evidence.
Heart health (3)
- Outcomes of Perilla Seed Oil as an Additional Neuroprotective Therapy in Patients with Mild to Moderate Dementia: A Randomized Control Trial
PubMed ID: 30543172
Large randomized dementia trial found perilla seed oil significantly lowered total and LDL cholesterol—clinically relevant heart/dyslipidemia benefit.
- [Effects of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids from different sources on glucolipid metabolism in type 2 diabetic patients with dyslipidemia]
PubMed ID: 31177752
Well‑conducted trial in T2DM showed perilla oil specifically lowered LDL‑C and ApoB versus other ω‑3 sources—strong evidence for lipid/heart support.
- Effects of marine-derived and plant-derived omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on erythrocyte fatty acid composition in type 2 diabetic patients
PubMed ID: 35144649
In 150 T2DM patients, perilla lowered fasting glucose and modestly reduced LDL‑C—beneficial cardiometabolic effects.
Brain health (2)
- Perilla seed oil in combination with nobiletin-rich ponkan powder enhances cognitive function in healthy elderly Japanese individuals: a possible supplement for brain health in the elderly
PubMed ID: 35171190
12‑month study in elderly: perilla + nobiletin improved cognitive index, increased RBC ω‑3 and serum BDNF—solid evidence for cognitive/brain benefit when combined with nobiletin.
- Effects of Varied Omega-3 Fatty Acid Supplementation on Postpartum Mental Health and the Association between Prenatal Erythrocyte Omega-3 Fatty Acid Levels and Postpartum Mental Health
PubMed ID: 37892462
Perilla supplementation in pregnancy reduced postpartum depressive symptoms and higher erythrocyte ALA was associated with lower distress—supports perilla's brain/mood relevance.
Healthy aging (2)
- Perilla seed oil improves bone health by inhibiting bone resorption in healthy Japanese adults: A 12-month, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
PubMed ID: 36637040
12‑month randomized trial showed increased calcaneal bone density surrogate and reduced bone resorption marker—meaningful for aging-related bone loss prevention.
- Perilla seed oil in combination with nobiletin-rich ponkan powder enhances cognitive function in healthy elderly Japanese individuals: a possible supplement for brain health in the elderly
PubMed ID: 35171190
12‑month trial in elderly: perilla + nobiletin improved global cognitive index, increased RBC ω‑3 and BDNF, and improved antioxidant potential—supports healthy cognitive aging when combined with nobiletin.
Energy & Fatigue (1)
- Effects of marine-derived and plant-derived omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on erythrocyte fatty acid composition in type 2 diabetic patients
PubMed ID: 35144649
Lower fasting glucose in T2DM after 6 months of perilla suggests improved metabolic/energetic regulation.
Mood balance (1)
- Effects of Varied Omega-3 Fatty Acid Supplementation on Postpartum Mental Health and the Association between Prenatal Erythrocyte Omega-3 Fatty Acid Levels and Postpartum Mental Health
PubMed ID: 37892462
Randomized perilla supplementation in pregnancy reduced postpartum depressive symptoms and higher maternal ALA associated with lower distress—strong, clinically relevant mood signal.
Cell health (1)
- Perilla seed oil in combination with nobiletin-rich ponkan powder enhances cognitive function in healthy elderly Japanese individuals: a possible supplement for brain health in the elderly
PubMed ID: 35171190
Perilla + nobiletin improved antioxidant potential and raised RBC ω‑3 and BDNF—supports cellular protection/antioxidant defenses.
