As a dietary supplement, evening primrose oil can help lower blood cholesterol and blood pressure, help in weight reduction, relieve premenstrual pain, improve eczema, aid in the treatment of moderate cases of rheumatoid arthritis, slow progression of multiple sclerosis, help hyperactive children, improve acne (when taken with zinc), and help build stronger fingernails.

The active ingredient in evening primrose oil is gamma linoleic acid (GLA), which is needed for the body to produce hormonelike compounds called prostaglandins (PGs), vital for good health. In other words, a deficiency of the former can result in impaired production of the latter and adversely affect your physical well-being. Evening Primrose Oil is especially high in essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (EFA) including gamma-linolenic acid(GLA). Each 500mg capsule contains: Evening Primrose Oil Cis-Linolenic Acid 365mg, and 45mg of Gamma-Linolenic Acid(GLA). Evening Primrose Oil is not refined or hydrogenated. Contains no sugar, starch, preservatives, artificial color, or flavor.
