Product Information

Starflower Oil is the oil extracted from borage seeds which has been found to have a naturally high level of the precious compound called GLA. This is an Omega 6 fatty acid which is used by the body to make certain hormones. In theory our bodies can make GLA but research on evening primrose oil has shown that supplements of GLA can be helpful for some people, and now many women choose a GLA supplement around the time of their period.

Starflower Oil is a very concentrated source of GLA which means that each capsule can deliver more than twice the level of GLA than the equivalent sized evening primrose capsule.

Each vegetarian capsules provide a massive 220mg of GLA per capsule, making this an impressive, high potency one-a-day product.

Attended hospital due to breast pain and cysts, advised to try Starflower oil to help with pain and find pain has dramatically reduced but it doesn''t prevent cysts so anyone should still attend hospital if lumps etc found, also found it good reducing "hot flushes", did stop taking it for a couple of weeks and they seemed to start again, have been taking it for almost a year. i also feel it has helped my skin but that might just be me.

"This has helped with my hormonal issues relating to the menapause "

By Lorna , 03 Feb 2021

To help me cope better with the menapause symptoms I thought I would try this as I read it did and read good reviews about it, been nearly two months and I''ve noticed not as many hot flushes during the day though I still feel them at night they are not half as bad. I''m also more calmer plus my skin and hair look better, my hair is glossy and my skin not so dry, definitely feel the benefits of it and will continue take them, why stop if they doing good?
