What is Ahiflower and what plant and plant part does Ahiflower Oil come from?
Ahiflower is an oilseed crop and plant native to the English countryside. The plant, which is a small annual or biennial herb in the Boraginaceae (Borage) family, is officially known as Buglossoides arvensis. The Ahiflower Oil in our products comes from the seeds of non-GMO, proprietary varieties of the plant that have been registered and protected under EU and US Plant Variety Protection legislation.
These seeds have a natural omega-rich oil content. In fact, they contain more and healthier omegas than any other natural plant or seed oil. To produce the high-quality oil in our supplements, the seeds are first crushed, and the raw oil is extracted. From there the oil is lightly refined and filtered to produce Ahiflower Oil.
