thanks for the information about Borage oil. I picked up some yesterday with 300mg GLA content, and it actually seems to be working better than the EPO, which has only 95mg GLA. The only thing is, I still have to supplement with fish oils everyday to get a good balance of omega-3s and omega-6s. Otherwise, I get very moody and irritable just taking the omega-6s. thanks again.

No prob, like I said, it really helped me alot.
If you want to amplify the % PGE-1/arachadonic acid ratio ( you want GLA to turn to anti-inflamatory PGE-1 and not pro-inflammatory arachadonic acid) - you are getting from the GLA you are getting, you might want to try something that blocks the D-5-D enzyme, like a small dose of sesamin. This promotes GLA to turn into PGE-1 and not arachadonic acid.
This is the end of the thread.
