More Info
Flax seed oil provides 50% omega-3 fatty acids and borage oil provides 20% GLA. Flax seed oil contains alpha linolenic acid, ALA, an omega-3 fatty acid that can be converted into eicosapentaenoic acid, or EPA, in the body. Because the combination of flax seed and borage oil has the potential to simultaneously support PGE3 and PGE1, it may provide enhanced support compared to either oil alone. Borage oil has been shown to support healthy joint function while flax seed oil has the potential to support healthy lipid metabolism and joint function. Each 2 capsule serving of Flax/Borage Oil typically provides 450-500 mg omega-3 fatty acids (as alpha linolenic acid (ALA) and 36-44 mg gamma linolenic acid (GLA)).
