The courage herb — adrenal support, hormonal balance, and anti-inflammatory relief.

Borage (Borago officinalis) is rich in GLA (gamma-linolenic acid), a rare omega-6 fatty acid with powerful anti-inflammatory properties. Traditionally known as the “herb of courage” for its ability to support the adrenal glands and lift mood during stress and exhaustion.
