Borage Oil is one of the few plant sources of Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) and Linoleic Acid (LA), two fatty acids that assist in metabolic and cellular health. Research also indicates that GLA is good for women's health.
Borage Oil is the richest source of the nutritionally important Omega-6 fatty acid: GLA (gamma linolenic acid). GLA is the precursor for many important prostaglandins, which are hormone-like substances that may affect blood thickness, skin and joint health, cholesterol levels, dilation and constriction of blood vessels, inflammation, and more. Since GLA is rarely found in foods and many factors block the body's ability to make its own, Borage Oil is an affordable way to meet daily GLA needs.
In addition to GLA, borage oil also contains valuable minerals needed for proper cardiovascular function and healthy skin and nails. Clinical research shows that Borage Oil helps maintain healthy moisturized skin and joint flexibility. In Japan, medical claims can be made for its use in maintaining healthy skin function and cholesterol levels.
Borage oil is derived from the seeds of the borage (Borago officinalis) plant, a large plant with blue, star-shaped flowers found throughout Europe and North Africa and naturalized to North America. |
