| Immortelle whose triple unsaturated fatty acids strengthens the cell membranes and, when combined with regenerative qualities of Helichrysum has added value of stimulating the formation of new cells. |

| If I were you, I would put a comma after and, and one comma before has to keep balance and make it clearer. |

| No, do NOT use a comma after and. I do not like your sentence, it is a run on sentence. It is one of the worst sentences I have ever seen!! Please find my correction: Immortelle, whose triple unsaturated fatty acids strengthen the cell membrane, and when combined with the regenerative qualities of Helichrysum, has the added value of stimulating the formation of new cells. |

| Rochestermary: It is one of the worst sentences I have ever seen!! I'd hate to be in your class! It has punctuation problems, and an omission of the 'the' before "added"; hardly grounds for a ton of bricks on his head. I notice this is your first post. Read on - but if you see that as 'the worst', you haven't left yourself much leeway for far more 'deplorable' sentences to come, after 'very worst'... Last edited by David L.; 21-Feb-2009 at 20:58. |

- is not a sentence. - can be removed from the sentence it's in without changing the meaning of the sentence. Dependent clauses always have to be set off by commas: - on both ends, when they're in the middle of a sentence. (Your example.) - at the end, when they start a sentence. - at the beginning, when they end a sentence. Here's more: Independent and Dependent Clauses |

I think this is a better sentence that that posted by the OP. However I would like to distance myself from these remarks by rochestermary; No, do NOT use a comma after and. I do not like your sentence, it is a run on sentence. It is one of the worst sentences I have ever seen!! |
