GLA, γ-linolenic acid (Borage Oil): Click to Expand ⟱
Features:
GLA (abundant in borage oil) has shown anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects on multiple cancer cell lines and in animal models (mechanisms include ER stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, altered eicosanoid signaling).
-Borage plants can contain unsaturated PAs(Pyrrolizidine alkaloids) which are hepatotoxic and genotoxic/carcinogenic. Many authorities advise only using borage oil products certified PA-free, and caution against long-term or high-dose use.
-γ-gamma linolenic acid (GLA, 18:3n-6) are polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) that improve the human health
