Borage Oil, 1000 mg, 60 Softgels, Now Foods

NOW Foods Borage Oil delivers 1,000 mg of expeller-pressed, hexane-free borage seed oil per softgel — providing 240 mg of Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) and 380 mg of linoleic acid — one of the richest natural sources of GLA available, delivering significantly more per capsule than Evening Primrose Oil.

Why

Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) is an Omega-6 fatty acid that plays a critical role in the body’s production of anti-inflammatory prostaglandins (Series 1), supporting healthy skin, hormonal balance, and inflammatory response. While the body can theoretically convert linoleic acid (LA) to GLA, this conversion is often inefficient — particularly in those with nutritional deficiencies, high stress, or certain health conditions — making direct GLA supplementation valuable. Borage oil (Borago officinalis) is the richest natural plant source of GLA, typically providing 20–26% GLA by weight — compared to Evening Primrose Oil at 8–10%. At 240 mg GLA per softgel, NOW Foods Borage Oil delivers more than twice the GLA of a typical EPO capsule. Expeller pressed and hexane-free to maintain purity and quality. GMP Quality Assured by NOW Foods — family-owned since 1968. 60 softgels — 30–60 day supply.
