Borage as a medicinal herb
Borage (Borago officinalis) is a typical farmer's garden herb. The plant with the small, blue flowers is also popularly known as blue sky star, heart's delight, little love eye, good cheer flower or cucumber herb. This is because the plant's leaves have a characteristic cucumber flavour. Borage was considered a valuable medicinal plant many hundreds of years ago, and its flowers and leaves were used medicinally.
Oil high in gamma-linolenic acid
We gently press our borage oil from the seeds of organically grown plants. Borage seed oil has the highest gamma-linolenic acid content of any known oil: around 21 g per 100 g. It also contains saturated fatty acids, oleic acid and linoleic acid. Fatty compounds include vitamin E, flavonoids and tannins. Borage oil has a greenish-yellow colour and a sour taste. It is excellent for use in dressings in the kitchen. Do you like the taste of borage oil? Our borage seed oil capsules are an alternative to oil.
The Ingredients are preserved bye gentle pressing
Our borage oil, available as an oil and in vegan capsules, is a good source of omega-6 unsaturated fatty acids. Cold-pressed borage oil is particularly high in these, especially the triple unsaturated gamma-linolenic acid. Unsaturated fatty acids are essential and cannot be produced by the body. These fatty acids must therefore be obtained from the diet.
We press the seeds of the borage plant at low temperatures. Cold pressing enables us to offer borage seed oil of the highest raw food quality. The gentle extraction of the oil preserves the valuable natural ingredients.
Vegan capsule shell
Capsule shells often contain ingredients derived from animal by-products. A common ingredient is bovine gelatine. The capsule shells that contain our organic borage oil are made from certified and purely vegetable ingredients (HPMC) and are therefore suitable for a vegan diet. Our capsules are easy to open.
Usage
Recommended use: Take 3 capsules in the morning and 3 capsules in the evening, unchewed. Do not exceed the recommended dose (6 capsules per day). Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
