Alpha01 Starflower Borage 2000mg holds cold-pressed starflower seed oil from the borage plant, Borago officinalis, in softgels, 90 to a pouch. Each two-softgel serving gives 2,000mg of oil providing 380mg of GLA (gamma-linolenic acid), and the ingredients list names just the oil, at 19% GLA, and the softgel shell.
Starflower and borage are two names for one plant, and GLA is the figure to compare its oils by: 19% of 2,000mg is the 380mg printed on the front of the pouch and on the panel. The front also says cold-pressed, meaning the oil is pressed from the seed without added heat or solvents. Our guide, Starflower Oil Capsules: Borage Oil, GLA and What 2000mg Means, explains these numbers and sets the softgels beside our organic LiCaps.
Take two softgels a day with water. The pouch holds 45 servings for £9.99, about 22p a serving or 6p per 100mg of GLA. Each softgel contains 1,000mg of oil in a shell of bovine gelatin, glycerin and purified water.
