Borage (Borago officinalis) is an annual plant renowned for its vibrant blue flowers and various medicinal uses.  Rich in fatty acids like gamma linolenic acid (GLA) and linoleic acid, borage tincture is commonly used in managing conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis symptoms, mild asthma and atopic dermatitis.   The flower seeds of this herb are comprised of roughly 25 percent oil which is one of natures richest sources of GLA which is a type of Omega 6 fatty acid which cannot be made by the body.  It is powerfully anti-inflammatory and converts into beneficial prostaglandins, which have a profound reduction effect on inflammation and cardiovascular disease, lung function, autoimmune conditions and metabolic abnormalities. Borage leaf is an excellent adrenal tonic that works on the adrenal cortex to revive and renew the adrenal glands.  Borage leaf tincture can be used over a period of time to support the adrenals and it calms and soothes the nervous system.  
Detoxification; Borage leaves are naturally diuretic, increasing the frequency and output of urine and helping to cleanse the system of excess fluids and stimulating the kidneys. This causes the body to flush out uric acid and excess crystals that can cause many problems including gout, arthritis and kidney stones.
