Borage Oil – The Wonder Oil You Didn’t Know You Needed

Most people are familiar with the benefits of taking a daily multivitamin, but did you know that there are other nutritional supplements that can be just as beneficial? One such supplement is borage oil. Borage oil is a nutritional oil consisting of 60% polyunsaturated fats and approximately twice the average content of gamma linolenic acid (GLA) as evening primrose oil. GLA is an essential fatty acid that the body is able to produce from dietary linoleic acid; however, it can be more efficiently utilized for body functions when supplied directly through dietary sources. Research has determined that borage oil does not have harmful levels of pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs). NOW® Borage Oil is expeller-pressed and hexane-free.

What Are the Benefits of Borage Oil?

There are many potential benefits associated with taking borage oil supplements, including:

• Skin health: GLA has been shown to reduce inflammation and improve skin barrier function, which can help to treat various skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.
• Hormone regulation: GLA has been shown to reduce the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), menopause, and other hormone-related issues.
• Heart health: GLA has been shown to lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels, both of which are risk factors for heart disease.
• Mental health: GLA has been shown to improve symptoms of anxiety and depression.
• immunity: GLA has been shown to modulate the immune system and reduce inflammation, both of which can help to improve overall health and well-being.

Whether you’re looking to improve your skin health, regulate your hormones, or boost your immune system, borage oil may be a helpful supplement for you. This “wonder oil” has a wide range of potential benefits with few side effects. As always, consult your doctor before taking any new supplements.
