HealthAid Vegan Starflower Oil is an exceptionally rich source of GLA. HealthAid Starflower Oil 1000mg capsule contains 23% GLA, more than twice that found in a similar evening primrose oil capsule. As with all the HealthAid starflower range, these capsules contain pure Starflower Oil.
Starflower Oil is extracted from the seeds of the Borage plant, and contains the richest source of Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA), even more potent than Evening Primrose Oil.

It is also known to support female health in all stages of life.
