Ive seen borage oil metioneda lot here. I was thinking of trying it but wondering how much to take. Any specific brands ? I was feeling pretty good on NSD but recently went back on a daily med that contained starch and my SI is flaring badly.

I found Jarrow formulas at a good price online. Most 'pill' forms are at about 240mg of GLA per capsule and I think Dragonslayer recommended around 2 grams taken (all at once) before bed. I take it for 3-4 days when in a flare.

Hi, lulu12:
It is 2g effective GLA, so about 8 capsules would be required! I know it is a lot, but remember it is still essential oil that counts against our daily intake of EFAs that should be 12g or more. And along with the natural vitE, the borage oil is very beneficial.
This alone can help take down a flare, but also I promote fresh wheatgrass juice at 4-6oz on empty stomach about 3 days in a row max should do it.
Hope You are feeling better by now.
HEALTH, John
