Borage Oil is cold-pressed, produced without the
use of any solvents and contains 20% GLA, the highest GLA content of any plant
source. Research indicates that borage oil supports healthy immune system
function and joint comfort. Healthy Joint, Immune System And Skin Support:
Studies have indicated that GLA promotes healthy prostaglandin E1 (PGE1)
production, which helps support healthy joints, as well has healthy blood flow
and vessel function. A randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial
reported statistically significant support for joint health in subjects
supplementing with GLA from borage seed oil. Researchers at the University of
Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, reported that GLA helps support healthy
cytokine activity, a mechanism that may be linked to both immune system support
and joint health. PGE1 has also been associated with supporting and soothing the
skin when used topically or taken orally. * Pure Encapsulations borage oil is a chemical-free,
fresh-pressed oil containing 24% GLA. Pure Encapsulations Borage Oil also
