Solgar Super Starflower Oil 1300mg 60 softgels

Solgar Super Starflower Oil softgels each provide 300mg of Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) from Cold-Pressed, Hexane Free Borage Oil. It is an Omega 6 fatty acid. GLA has the following benefits:

PRE-MENSTRUAL SYNDROME - GLA from Borage Oil has been shown to improve PMS headaches, low mood, irritability and bloating.

HEAVY PERIODS - Fatty acid imbalance may play a significant role in heavy menstruation.

BREAST HEALTH - Scientific studies have shown that Omega 6 fatty acids in the form of GLA from Borage Oil may be helpful in reducing the pain and tenderness associated with pre-menstrual breast pain.

HORMONE IMBALANCE - The hormone modulating effects of prostaglandins derived from essential fatty acids makes them particularly important if optimal hormonal health is to be achieved.

DIABETIC NEUROPATHY - Clinical research has discovered that GLA may be an important factor in the prevention of nerve damage that affects between 60% and 70% of all diabetics. Diabetics should definitely consider supplementing with a good source of GLA, such as Solgar Super GLA softgels.

SKIN HEALTH - Studies have shown skin conditions, including eczema and psoriosis, respond well to Borage Oil. In fact, researchers have discovered that eczema may be linked to a deficiency of GLA. An initial dose of around 3000mg a day of Borage Oil is recommended for eczema etc. This can be reduced when results are obtained.
