Borage Oil - A Natural Way to Support Your HealthBorage oil is a nutritional oil that consists of 60% polyunsaturated fats and approximately twice the average content of gamma linolenic acid (GLA). 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? Borage oil has numerous benefits for your health. First, because it is high in GLA, it can help support your body's inflammatory response. Additionally, borage oil has been shown to help maintain healthy cholesterol levels and support cardiovascular health. It can also help support proper joint function and mobility. Finally, borage oil is also a good source of omega-6 fatty acids, which are important for brain health and cognitive function. How do I take borage oil? Borage oil is typically taken in Softgel capsule form. For best results, take one capsule three times daily with meals.
