Borage (Borago officinalis) is the most concentrated plant source of GLA: up to 23% of its total fatty acids. Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) is a rare essential fatty acid that the body produces less efficiently with age.

Borage and GLA: Mechanisms

Borage Oil                      GLA 18-23% guaranteed / 2 capsules

Borago officinalis The GLA → DGLA → PGE1 pathway loses efficiency with age (decline in delta-6-desaturase) and in cases of stress, diabetes, and smoking. Borage bypasses this issue by directly providing preformed GLA.

Origin & Tradition Mediterranean and Western European plant. Its seeds contain the richest GLA oil in the plant kingdom (18-23%). Cultivated for its edible blue flowers and medicinal oil since the Middle Ages.
Active Molecules Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA, C18:3n-6) 18-23% · Linoleic acid (Omega 6, 35-40%) · Oleic acid · Alpha-linolenic acid (traces) · Natural vitamin E.
Action GLA is converted into DGLA and then into prostaglandins E1 (PGE1), natural anti-inflammatory mediators. PGE1: vasodilator, regulator of cell proliferation, inhibits platelets and pro-inflammatory mediators. Maintains the integrity of the skin lipid barrier.

Borage vs. Evening Primrose — What's the Difference?

Gamma Plus (Borage) GLA 18-23%, more potent for PMS and mucosal dryness
Enothéra (Evening Primrose) GLA 7-10% + linoleic acid 65-75%, more comprehensive for overall skin beauty
Together, they cover all essential Omega 6 needs.
