Product insights

  • Evening primrose oil (E.P.O.) is a rich source of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid involved in prostaglandin synthesis and inflammatory pathways.
  • GLA from E.P.O. supports skin health by modulating IFN-gamma and promoting a favorable shift in eicosanoid metabolism.
  • E.P.O. may support healthy lipid metabolism and provide oxidative protection by promoting glutathione reductase and transferase activities.
  • GLA, in combination with EPA/DHA, may promote healthy cardiovascular function in women and support premenstrual comfort.
