Swanson EFAs OmegaTru Borage Oil provides 1 gram of OmegaTru Borage Oil per softgel, contributing 10 calories and 1 gram of total fat. This product has an N+ Score of 47, earning an F grade and placing it in the below-average tier. While borage oil is a source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), commonly used for its potential anti-inflammatory properties, the product's low N+ Score suggests that factors beyond the primary ingredient dosage may be problematic. The 1-gram dosage of borage oil is a standard serving size for this type of supplement. This product may appeal to individuals seeking a borage oil supplement, but its low N+ Score indicates potential quality concerns.
