Omega Nutrition Omega Plus Flax Borage Oil - 200 Softgels

Omega Plus® is a specially formulated blend of certified organic‚ unrefined flax and borage seed oils that offers an optimal combination of EFAs (essential fatty acids) and GLA's (gamma-linolenic acids)‚ a potent natural derivative of the Omega-6 EFA.

The Borage plant has been consumed for generations in Europe‚ but only recently was its seed identified as a potent natural source of the omega-6 EFA derivative and gamma-linolenic acids (GLA's). Borage Oil has a higher concentration of GLA than black currant or evening primrose oils. It's also more cost-effective as Borage seeds are larger and contain more oil. Borage oil is the preferred source of GLA among many nutritionists and natural health practitioners.

Organic flax oil is the richest vegetarian source of omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFA's). Since our bodies cannot produce EFA's‚ they must be obtained from our diet. Flax seed oil is unique because it contains both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids that are necessary for maintaining good health.
