Product insights

  • Borage oil is a rich source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid that serves as a precursor to prostaglandins involved in regulating inflammation and immune responses.
  • GLA from borage oil supports the production of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), which has anti-inflammatory properties and may contribute to joint comfort and healthy skin.
  • The high GLA content in borage oil helps support hormonal balance and reproductive health in women.
