Feature summary
Evening Primrose oil is a natural source of the very important nutrient, gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), a member of what chemists call the omega-6 family of fatty acids. The body makes GLA from linoleic acid, which is found in common vegetable oils such as corn oil, canola oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil, peanut oil, sesame oil and olive oil. For many North Americans, conversion of linoleic acid to GLA is difficult because their bodies lack adequate levels of vitamins B6, B3, magnesium and zinc. Also, conversion is blocked if you consume too much trans-fat or saturated fat. Evening Primrose oil, by-passes the need to convert GLA in the body from linoleic acid. It is used to treat premenstrual syndrome (PMS), demonstrating meaningful benefits in up to 90% of users. It can help ease arthritis, improve circulation, and the health of the hair, nails and skin. It can also help lower stroke and heart attack risk by lowering platelet stickiness and inappropriate blood clotting.
