Vitals Borage Oil 500mg organic
The borage plant (Borago officinalis), also known as starflower or bee bread, is a well-known culinary herb with blue flowers, originating from the countries around the Mediterranean Sea and spread throughout Europe and North America over the centuries.
Rich in GLA
Borage oil is the richest natural source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). This is a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid that is hardly found in food. The body can, in principle, produce GLA itself from (cis) linoleic acid. However, in situations where there is an increased need, it can be useful to supplement the diet with a GLA supplement. Factors that can play a role include excessive consumption of trans fats, saturated fats, sugar, alcohol, and carbohydrates.
Organic
The active ingredients of organic food supplements are guaranteed to be of natural origin and not synthetically manufactured. In addition, production takes into account the environment, animals, and people as much as possible. Various regulations define what this entails. Among other things, no chemical pesticides, artificial fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms are used. The Skal Biocontrole institute checks whether the regulations are complied with and whether a product can be called organic. Organic products can be recognized by the code NL-BIO-01 and the European organic quality mark.
