Description
SCIENCE-BASED BORAGE OIL
FOR OPTIMAL SUPPORT OF PROSTAGLANDIN BALANCE
Borage oil contains the omega‑6 fatty acid gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) at a higher concentration than any other oil source. The essential fatty acids contained in borage oil, when absorbed by the body, are converted to prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are important for regulating many functions in the body including inflammation, the allergic response, as well as hormone and steroid production. The borage oil in GLA SAP is a naturally occurring organic source, is solvent-free, and is not bleached, deodorized, or refined.
