| Description |
Evening primrose oil, obtained from the seed oil of Oenothera biennis, contains substantial levels of Omega-6 fatty acids, which are required by the body to regulate a number of activities including insulin utilization, heart function, and mood. Since the body does not produce Omega-6 fatty acids, they must be ingested through proper diet or supplementation. In addition to Omega-6 fatty acids, Evening Primrose Oil contains gamma-linolenic acid, which is the active ingredient. Evening primrose oil has been used in connection with inflammatory conditions including both rheumatoid arthritis and asthma. Evening primrose oil may help to relieve pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS), symptoms of menopause, and breast pain due to hormonal changes during menstruation. |
