Vitakruid Borage Oil 1500 mg GLA 300 mg
Highest percentage of GLA (gamma-linolenic acid)
Borage (borago officinalis) is an herb derived from borage, a plant also known as cucumber herb. Pressing the seeds of the plant produces an oil with a high percentage of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). We attribute various health-promoting effects to this omega-6 fatty acid. The ancient Greeks already used the herb for this reason.

Of all oilseed crops, borage is the main plant source of GLA. The oil contains the highest percentage compared to other plants, such as the evening primrose. For example, the GLA concentration in borage oil is more than twice higher than in evening primrose oil. In 100 grams of oil from the borage plant you will find 18-26 grams of GLA, while evening primrose only contains 7-10 grams. In addition, the substance is quite rare in nature: there are few foods from which you can get GLA. That is why a borage oil supplement is in many cases a welcome addition to your diet!

300 mg GLA per capsule
In addition to the fact that borage oil comes from the richest vegetable GLA source, we offer the high dosage of 1500 mg borage oil per capsule in our product. Of this, 300 mg is the active substance GLA. The vast majority of borage oil products on the market only contain GLA levels between 100 and 200 mg. With another product you often have to take a (triple) double dose to achieve the same effect. Our supplement not only exceeds this in terms of quality and content, but also in relation to price.

Cold pressed for the best quality
The borage oil is cold pressed during the production process to guarantee the highest quality. This is a process that does not use chemicals, so that the oil retains its natural nutrients as much as possible. Consider preserving the high level of GLA, the main active substance.
