DY Life Borage Oil + Vitamin E is a supplement formulated with borage seed oil (*Borago officinalis*), one of the richest natural sources of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), combined with vitamin E, an essential antioxidant that supports cellular protection. Borage oil has been widely used in functional nutrition for decades due to its role in fatty acid metabolism and inflammatory balance, and has been extensively studied for its beneficial effects on skin health, joint comfort, and metabolic function.

GLA is an Omega-6 fatty acid with distinct biological properties compared to other fatty acids in the same category. It is involved in the synthesis of lipid mediators associated with anti-inflammatory activity. Through these mechanisms, borage oil is linked to supporting the body’s normal inflammatory response and helping maintain healthy joint function and mobility.

Borage oil is also traditionally recognized for its benefits for skin health. Essential fatty acids contribute to maintaining skin barrier integrity, reducing transepidermal water loss, and supporting skin elasticity. Its effects have been studied particularly in the context of dry, sensitive, or compromised skin. (1)

Vitamin E further enhances the formula through its antioxidant properties, helping protect cells against oxidative stress while also supporting the stability of polyunsaturated fatty acids such as GLA. Together, these nutrients help support cellular membrane integrity and the physiological processes involved in maintaining healthy skin and cardiovascular function. (2)

DY Life Borage Oil + Vitamin E is designed to support key mechanisms involved in overall balance and well-being, from inflammatory regulation and cellular function to skin health and lipid metabolism.

USPs

• 200 mg of GLA from borage oil to support skin health and hormonal balance
• Vitamin E for antioxidant protection and cellular health support
• HALAL & GMP certified - verified quality

Key Benefits

• Concentrated source of GLA (gamma-linolenic acid)
  Borage oil is one of the richest natural sources of GLA (Omega-6), a fatty acid involved in cellular membrane structure and cellular signaling processes. In the body, GLA is converted into bioactive compounds, including series-1 prostaglandins, involved in the regulation of various physiological functions.
• Supports healthy skin, hair, and nails
  GLA contributes to maintaining skin barrier integrity through its role in epidermal lipid structure. It helps reduce transepidermal water loss, supporting skin hydration, elasticity, and vitality, particularly in dry or reactive skin. Through its content of essential fatty acids and antioxidants, borage oil also helps support the strength and structure of hair and nails, contributing to healthy regeneration processes and overall appearance.
• Supports inflammatory balance
  GLA serves as a precursor to compounds involved in regulating the inflammatory response, helping maintain balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory processes throughout the body.
• Contributes to hormonal balance
  Essential fatty acids such as GLA are involved in metabolic pathways associated with hormonal activity and signaling. They may help support balance during periods of hormonal fluctuation, particularly in women.
• Antioxidant protection
  Vitamin E (D-alpha tocopherol) contributes to protecting cells against oxidative stress.
