The Active Ingredient Is: Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA)

Gamma-linolenic acid, or GLA, is an omega-6 essential fatty acid sourced from borage seed oil. This form comes from cold-pressed, hexane-free borage seeds to deliver a purer source of GLA.

This active ingredient comes from Borago officinalis seeds via a cold-pressed method and is stabilised to keep its content without chemical solvents.

What Does Gamma-Linolenic Acid Do?

GLA helps in the synthesis of prostaglandins that regulate immune and inflammatory responses in the body, contributing to normal inflammatory processes. It supports skin health and broader immune function, in line with EFSA-approved nutrient functions.

Evidence from peer-reviewed work shows these roles link to the body's normal physiological operations when GLA is consumed as part of a balanced diet.
