BORAGE OIL

Composition

• Borage Oil – 1000 mg

• Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA) – 240 mg

• Capsule Shell: Gelatin, Glycerin, Purified Water

Mechanism of Action

• Borage Oil — an oil extracted from Borago officinalis seeds, rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids. It is used in research and industrial applications where plant-based lipid compounds are studied.

• Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA) — a polyunsaturated fatty acid naturally present in certain plant oils. It participates in biochemical pathways involving fatty acid metabolism and is applied in laboratory and formulation studies.

Technical Properties

• Solubility: Borage oil and GLA are lipophilic and soluble in organic solvents and oils.

• Stability: Sensitive to light and heat; storage under controlled conditions preserves chemical integrity.

• Reactivity: Lipid components can undergo oxidation and standard fatty acid reactions typical for polyunsaturated oils.
