How it Works

Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) is a fatty acid that is naturally found in Borage Oil. Although GLA can be produced in the body, it can be more easily utilized when supplied directly through dietary sources. Through its role in normal immune system function, GLA helps to maintain the integrity of the skin barrier and supports a healthy vascular system.* Furthermore, GLA has been shown to be important for lung, joint, and eye health.* Research has determined that Borage Oil does not contain harmful levels of Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids (PAs). The Borage Oil in this product is expeller-pressed and hexane-free.

 

Suggested Usage

Take 1 softgel 1 to 2 times daily, preferably with food, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.

 

Cautions / Interactions

May cause mild, transient GI upset. GLA may interact with phenothiazines and anticoagulant medications. Consult your healthcare practitioner before taking this product if you are taking any of these medications or if you have a bleeding disorder or plan to have surgery. Pregnant/nursing women should consult a healthcare practitioner before taking Borage Oil.
