What the Label Data Shows

Borage Oil 1000 mg is cataloged in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD) as a fat/fatty acid supplement built from 11 ingredients from The Vitamin Shoppe, sold in softgel capsule form. These ingredients span 5 nutrient categories, other, fatty acid, fat, protein, and 1 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

Across a broader 11-ingredient formula, 11 of 11 fall outside the FDA's Daily Value system altogether, expected for a broader formula -- the more ingredients a label lists, the more likely it accumulates botanicals, amino acids, or specialty compounds the FDA has never benchmarked.

A product's market status is worth checking before relying on this label. This product is currently listed as off-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2014-07-25. Off-market products are no longer being produced or distributed under this label, but the DSLD preserves their historical label data for researchers, consumers checking older bottles, and for tracking how formulations have evolved.
