Description
Borage Oil is used in treating essential fatty acid deficiency states and as an adjunct to therapy in situations where an increased intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids is required.
Low in saturated fatty acids, high in polyunsaturates, Borago Dfficionalis is an attractive plant with star like blue flowers, whose native habitat is the Mediterranean region, These capsules contain Borage Oil, rich in an Essential Fatty Acid (Linoleic Acid) which also contains a far higher proportion of GLA (Gamma Linolenic Acid) than any other known natural source.
Like Vitamins, Essential Fatty Acids unable to be manufactured by the body and thus have to be supplied by dietary means. The GLA content of the oil has been verified in independent laboratory tests up to 23% of the fatty acids so that, for weight, Boracelle can contain more than 2 ? times the GLA of a typical Evening Primrose Oil and up to 70% more than Blackcurrant Seed Oil. The body uses these fatty acids for cell structure purposes as well as to make Prostaglandins, biological regulators that control metabolic, physiological and reproductive functions. PGE1, one of the most important Prostaglandins, is usually derived from Linoleic Acid via GLA in the body. At times, the conversion of Linoleic Acid to GLA is inefficient in the body and a dietary source of GLA such as SWISS BORAGE OIL can be useful. Careful scientific studies conducted have verified the oil in Borage Seed to be safe, and as a potent source of GLA.
