Does this Borage oil contain pyrrolizidine alkaloids? I need to know because I like my liver.

The reason we can't find ANY manufacturer that has "PA free" on their borage oil is because there are NO borage oils that are PA free. There is a limit that was created by "someone or something" that states that you can have PAs, but if they are at a low enough level, you get the marketing ability to call them PA free. So, they aren't really PA free....but the manufacturers can call them that. Not good.

The important ingredient is corydalis, of course. I dont have the pills in front me now but if you want me to read off the back I can, let me know. If youre unfamiliar, corydalis is a natural herbal pain medication. I used to have terrible cramps every now and then that wouldn't respond to anything else but an intensive painkiller. Now I use them for back pain. One pill and my problem is gone. I'm really pleased because i hunted for years for something like the previous corydalis medication I had (from Australia) and couldn't find anything. This is even better than that was. I hope it works for you too.

I don't see it listed in the ingredients. The two products are somewhat different. My dog takes it for her liver. My vet recommends giving it an hour before a meal once a day.

It does not list Sylibin; however, it does list 80mg of Milk thistle and Sylibin is supposedly a "standardized extract of milk thistle seeds." I'm not sure if they consider that the same thing or not. My vet from Banfield told us to give our dog the Adenosyl for his liver and it has improved the numbers a lot. You don't need a prescription to buy it. I think you need a prescription for Denamarin. You may want to ask your vet about the milk thistle and whether it's the same as Sylibin or not...

Hi, I don't have the package with me anymore, since I only bought this once, a while ago, but I don't remember reading anything about oxidized cholesterol, and if they don't mention it then I wouldn't have any idea whether it contains it or not. Perhaps this is a question best forwarded to Organic Valley. I'm sure you can find their contact details online. Good luck!

I dont see it listed in supplement facts: does have vitamin b6, chromium and proprietary blend of other items would suggest reaching out to supplier to confirm

Dear Anne, I do not have the product in my possession, but I looked up the ingredients at the company's site online. It listed palm oil as the oil which in its natural form , is not hydrogenated, that is why it is used in many food preps. Just look up Boigaia probiotic ingredients online. Hope this helps. Priscilla

Yes. I checked the bottle and it does. Soybean oil, Gelatin, Vegetable Glycerin and corn oil. Ugh. I hadn't realized it has this.

I didn't realize until I went to answer your question - it actually does include probiotics (lactobacillus acidophilus) in the ingredients, and also includes flaxseed, natural yeast culture, desiccated liver, amino acids & enzymes, garlic, lecithin & calcium citrate. I give my Lhasa Apso an additional Nature's Bounty Acidophilus Probiotic pill (100 million lactobacilli) once a day, because he gets loose stools easily & I try to keep his intestinal flora nice & high. Maybe once that supply runs out, I will eliminate the extra probiotic from his diet. My only concern is it doesn't say how much acidophilus it contains. But you could call 800-360-3300 to get that info from the manufacturer.

Sylibin is one of the compounds of Milk Thistle so I might assume it is present.

My son takes it, and I checked the ingredients. They are: cod liver oil, natural strawberry flavor, d-alpha tocopherol, and rosemary water. I don't know what d-alpha tocopherol is, so it depends on that.

I should update that there are serious health risk to over consumption of licorice root. This includes liver damage. I forgot to change this rating. Use miswak (sewak) sticks instead. Takes some getting use to but they are way better for you.

Re; AquaGal's response. The chemical name for "milk thistle" is Silybum marianum ; also another common name is silymarin. If you Google it, you can get more info. Does not appear that this has "milk thistle" in it. "Milk thistle" is more for "tonifying the liver" or detoxifying the liver rather than for arthritis or mood issues/depression so do not know why this would contain it (although there could be other uses for milk thistle). HTH!

Yes. Beet Root is good for chronic liver inflammation. Reducing or preferably eliminating animal products will be the best thing you could do for your liver. Eliminating liver effort needs...alcohol and other toxic substances. Lifestyle changes are primary...add some beet root for a happy liver:)

It claims to be "liver flavored" doesn't smell like liver to me. But it does have a smell that my dog does not object to. He eats it like a treat.
