Borage Oil with GLA

$34.00

Borage oil is a natural, plant based substance derived from Borage that provides high levels of Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA), a type of  polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) rich in Omega-6. Borage oil contains approximately 18% to 26% GLA which is not found in high amounts in the human diet.  Borage is considered one of the best sources of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) which is known to have beneficial effects on brain ageing. Additionally, GLA is reportedly efficacious for treating certain skin conditions or disorders including eczema (atopic dermatitis), red, itchy rash on the scalp (seborrheic dermatitis) as well as for hormone balancing (PMS and menopause in woman and andropause in men), bone density issues, inflammation, chronic stress, RA and more.

Description

Borage is a plant and its flowers, leaves and oil from its seeds are used to help improve certain conditions and for health. Borage oil is a natural, plant based substance derived from Borage that provides high levels of Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA), a type of  polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) rich in Omega-6.  Borage oil contains approximately 18% to 26% GLA which is not found in high amounts in the human diet (trace amounts in some leafy greens and nuts).  Borage is considered one of the best sources of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) which is known to have beneficial effects on brain ageing.

Additionally, GLA is reportedly efficacious for treating certain skin conditions or disorders including eczema (atopic dermatitis), red, itchy rash on the scalp (seborrheic dermatitis), and a type of skin condition called neurodermatitis.  Other studies show that GLA helps to balance hormone levels by regulating the production of prostaglandins, which are hormone-like chemical messengers involved in supporting hormonal balance management and impacting the body’s inflammatory processes such as swelling, stiffness and pain. Omega-3 and Omega-6 PUFAs play an important role in fighting disease because together they help control the release of molecules that are responsible for the body’s inflammation responses, including prostaglandins, leukotrienes and cytokines called interleukins.

Due to its antioxidant properties and ability to fight inflammation, borage oil has been reported, in a variety of studies, to help treat a wide range of both short and long-term illnesses, including:

  • Inflammatory processes that occur from toxic overload, injury, viral infections (including COVID-19) and other diseases
  • PMS symptoms (including breast tenderness, anxiety, and skin breakouts)
  • Bone loss and osteoporosis (especially when combined with Mag Synergy, containing Magnesium bisglycinate, to maximize absorption)
  • Anxiety and/or ADHD symptoms
  • Improves skin, hair and nails and helps with skin disorders, including eczema or atopic dermatitis
  • Menopause symptoms, including hot flashes and night sweats
  • Hormonal imbalances, including adrenal insufficiency & thyroid health
  • Ongoing fatigue or chronic fatigue issues
  • Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pain
  • Managing diabetes
  • Chronic stress
  • Breast-milk production enhancer
  • Respiratory distress (ARDS), bronchitis, colds, coughs and fevers
  • Alcoholism
  • Pain and swelling
  • Heart disease and stroke prevention
