Evening Primrose Oil may help support and maintain a healthy menstrual cycle
Pressed from a special strain of Evening Primrose seeds this Ultra Premium, Cold Pressed, Solvent Free, Evening Primrose Oil contains 72% Linoleic Acid and 10% GLA, plus natural Vitamin E (d-Alpha Tocopherol) to protect the fatty acids from oxidative destruction. Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) may help support and maintain a healthy menstrual cycle, help maintain healthy skin and also help support and maintain healthy joints.
Like vitamins, Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) are required for life. They must come from foods or supplements, because the human body cannot make them. Linoleic Acid (LA) is an EFA. The production of GLA from dietary Linoleic Acid occurs only slowly, or may be blocked entirely in many people.
What is Evening Primrose Oil ?
Evening primrose oil (EPO), comes from the seeds of the evening primrose plant. Like black currant seed oil and borage oil, EPO contains gamma linolenic acid (GLA), a essential fatty acid.
Linoleic acid, a common fatty acid found in nuts and seeds and most vegetable oils (including EPO), should theoretically be converted to PGE1 (a hormone-like substance); but many things can interfere with this conversion, including disease; the aging process; saturated fat; hydrogenated oils; blood sugar problems; and inadequate vitamin C, magnesium, zinc, and B vitamins. Supplements that provide GLA circumvent these conversion problems, leading to more predictable formation of PGE1.
