I've been taking borage oil for decades and this is part of the reason I look way younger than my age. (The other part is I take a truckload of natural supplements and anti-oxidants, don't ever ingest chemicals, not even thru my skin!) I take it for PMS and it helps with hormonal imbalances. I'll take 3 per day. When the estrogen dominance exhaustion kicks in I up to 6 per day. It gives a small boost.

Gives me a little boost during extreme PMS fatigue. (I have severe adrenal failure). However it takes a minimum of 6 per day of these to see just a little "lift". When I started borage oil in the late 80's it helped with weight loss. I guess my body got used to it, it no longer makes a difference in that dept. Excellent borage oil overall and great price! ---UPDATE: I quit taking this internally years ago, due to extreme side effects, most notably very vivid nightmares. (I found plenty others discussing this!) However, it's amazing on my face so I'll keep buying it. One caveat: can't find it pure in bottle form & the manuf. doesn't know what the source country this plant comes from but is tested for purity in the US.
GLA is an important fatty acid especially if you have some skin or hair troubles. There is no need to buy other brands with a softgel of 1,200 mg because they don't have more GLA than this one. Honestly, just get this brand. The GLA concentration is the most important when you compare the price for Borage oil. The softgels are big but easy to swallow. They look like Omega3 softgels. The price is good. The bottle is big but I would appreciate a bottle for 6 months.
LS! I bought this because of a publication in the September 2018 Magazine of Life Extension. There it is claimed that it helps with neuroinflammation and neurological diseases. I have been diagnosed with Schizophrenia. A disease often associated with neuroinflammation. It is hard to tell whether it actually helps, but I expect it to do good in the long run. GLA Borage Oil will help give me a beautiful skin. Thanks to iHerb I can afford to buy this product. Thanks a lot iHerb!
I just learned borage oil from one of the content creators on TikTok so I tried it, and after my 2nd bottle, I saw changes on my skin like it smother than usual and my gut feeling better
Really moisturizes the inside of the body Essential fatty acids Great for wellness, hair and skin
High-quality oil supplement with clean ingredients. The softgels are a good size and easy to take without any unpleasant aftertaste. I appreciate the quantity for the price, and it fits well into my daily routine. Feels like a reliable and well-made product.
I started taking Borage Oil because it has a much higher GLA content than Evening Primrose Oil. It has been a game-changer for my dry, sensitive skin! It helps hydrate from the inside out and has significantly reduced my skin redness and inflammation. If you struggle with dry skin or eczema, this is a must-try. I love that it provides such a high dose of healthy fatty acids in one softgel.
I’ve been using NOW Borage Oil as part of my daily supplement routine. The softgels are easy to take and fit well into a balanced lifestyle. The product feels reliable and consistent in quality, making it a simple option for those looking to add borage oil to their routine.
I love taking Borage Oil and similar oils for skin support. Doctors say it does something beneficial. I can’t be sure if I’d feel the same on a placebo, but I take it regularly and my skin looks wonderful for my age. Considering the ingredients and quality, I’m happy with this supplement.
