Olvita Borage Oil Cold-Pressed 100 ml

Product overview

Olvita Cold-Pressed Borage Oil is a high-quality, cold-pressed oil supplied in a convenient 100 ml bottle. It is made by the Olvita brand, known for its focus on pure, natural ingredients and careful production. Olvita is based in Sweden and works with carefully selected ingredients from responsible growers. Its philosophy is to provide products that are as pure and unaltered as possible, preserving the oil’s natural properties. Borage oil is of particular interest to those seeking a natural source of polyunsaturated fatty acids from plants, extracted using gentle cold pressing to retain the oil’s nutritional profile and flavour.

Active ingredients & science

The cold-pressed borage oil contains mainly gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid in triglyceride form that is readily absorbed by the body. The cold-pressing process means the oil is not exposed to heat, helping to preserve its natural chemical structure and nutritional content better than refined alternatives.

Benefits & uses

• Suitable for those who want to supplement their diet with polyunsaturated fatty acids from a plant-based source.
• Suitable for those seeking natural oils for skincare or as a dietary supplement.
• Can be used as part of a balanced diet to add variety to your sources of fat.
• Convenient for those who prefer liquid supplements to capsules or tablets.
• A good option for vegetarians and vegans seeking omega-6 from natural sources.

The oil can be used as a dietary supplement or as a mild, nourishing oil in skincare routines, for example for dry skin.

Use & dosage

The recommended daily dose is approximately one teaspoon (5 ml), which can be taken directly or mixed into food, such as a salad dressing, to preserve the oil’s delicate properties. It is best to take the oil with a meal to aid the absorption of fatty acids. As the oil is sensitive to light and heat, it should be stored in a cool, dark place after opening. For a balanced fatty acid profile, it can be combined with other oils rich in omega-3, such as linseed oil.

Quality & manufacturing

Olvita places great importance on quality and purity. This borage oil is cold-pressed under controlled conditions and undergoes thorough testing to ensure it is free from contaminants and unwanted additives. The packaging is designed to protect the oil from light and oxidation, extending its shelf life and preserving its active components. Olvita’s manufacturing process follows strict quality standards and complies with European regulations for food supplements.
