Borago officinalis semen
Huile de graines avec la plus haute teneur connue en GLA (acide gamma-linolénique); utilisée pour les affections cutanées, le SPM et l'inflammation.
Borage seed oil (Borago officinalis) is a botanical oil with the highest known concentration of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid with anti-inflammatory properties. It is primarily used to support skin health in conditions like atopic dermatitis, alleviate premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms, and reduce systemic inflammation. Key active compounds include GLA, linoleic acid, oleic acid, and vitamin E.
GLA is rapidly converted to dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA), which competes with arachidonic acid for cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase enzymes, reducing production of pro-inflammatory prostaglandins (e.g., PGE2) and leukotrienes. DGLA also serves as a precursor to anti-inflammatory prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), which modulates immune cell activity and vascular tone. In skin, GLA improves barrier function by enhancing ceramide synthesis and reducing transepidermal water loss. Additionally, borage oil may influence hormone metabolism by altering prostaglandin balance in reproductive tissues.
