Borage Seed Oil (Borago Officinalis Seedoil)
The word âborageâ has various different origins. Firstly, borage is derived from the Latin word borra, which roughly translated means âfabric made from rough woolâ, probably due to its hairy stems and leaves. Secondly, the name is said to come from the Arabic abu rârach, âfather of perspirationâ, and refers to the traditional use of borage in medicine to induce perspiration. Thanks to the vitamin C content of the fresh plant, borage enjoys the reputation of reviving the spirits. Fresh borage contains 149.3 mg of vitamin C per 100 g. Due to its high amount of gammaâlinolenic acid, borage is also used in the treatment of eczemas such as neurodermatitis.
