GLA is converted to dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA), which may influence prostaglandin balance involved in cellular signaling and a healthy inflammatory response.
Caution: May interact with blood-thinning effects when combined with high-dose omega-3s or anticoagulants; monitor for easy bruising.
Linoleic acid is an essential omega-6 fatty acid used to build cell membranes and is a precursor to signaling molecules that affect skin barrier and metabolic functions.
Caution: High omega-6 intake relative to omega-3s may not suit those aiming to limit overall omega-6; consider overall diet balance.
Oleic acid is a monounsaturated fat that integrates into cell membranes and may influence lipid metabolism and oxidative balance.
Caution: As a dietary fat, it adds calories; those monitoring caloric intake should account for this.
Palmitic acid is a saturated fatty acid used for energy and structural lipids in the body.
Caution: Saturated fat content may be a consideration for individuals managing overall saturated fat intake.
Borage oil supplies GLA along with its precursor linoleic acid, supporting the body’s production of DGLA and related prostaglandins. Oleic and palmitic acids provide additional fatty acids that contribute to membrane structure and lipid balance.

Borage oil is one of the few plant sources of Gamma-Linoleic Acid (GLA), which helps regulate a variety of important functions in the body, such as promoting cellular and metabolic health. It provides nutritional support for women as a precursor to prostaglandin production. GLA synthesis in the body is limited and there are no significant food sources, making supplementation important for women's health.
As a dietary supplement for adults, take one (1) softgel up to two times daily, preferably with meals or as directed by a healthcare practitioner.
Gelatin, vegetable glycerin.
Free of: Gluten, wheat, dairy, soy, yeast, sugar, sodium, artificial flavor, sweetener, preservatives and color.
