EVENING PRIMROSE OIL

The oil pressed from the seeds of the Evening Primrose is highly valued as a source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). GLA is one of the omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids that are involved in the production of prostaglandins (hormone-like substances involved in a wide variety of body functions including regulation of inflammation and the immune system). Evening Primrose Oil is popularly used to relieve the symptoms of pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS); keep skin nourished and in optimum condition; and maintain healthy fatty acid balance.
