Borage Seed Oil
About Borage Seed Oil
Borage seed oil is derived from the seeds of the borage plant. It is prized for its high content of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid with potential anti-inflammatory properties.
Borage seed oil is typically used in culinary applications, particularly in salad dressings and marinades. It can also be taken as a dietary supplement for its potential health benefits, such as skin health and reducing inflammation. However, it should be used in moderation due to its omega-6 content.
