Evening Primrose Oil
An ideal therapeutic balance of 9% GLA, 72% omega-6 and 9% omega-9 essential fatty acids.
Clinical studies on Evening Primrose Oil suggest it reduces inflammation and alleviates some forms of hormonal stress. This nutritional property, in conjunction with the presence of other phyto (or plant-based) nutrients, makes EPO an attractive source of hormone builders. EPO also contains other nutritional lipids such as phospholipids, sterols, and other active phyto-compounds. Independent medical research indicates these compounds are significant immune system and cell builders.
Key Benefits
A good source of omega-3 and omega-6, essential fatty acids (EFAs) necessary for optimal health, maintaining cell structure and producing energy
Contains about 72% (1.1 g) omega-6 and 9% (135 mg) gamma linolenic acid (GLA)
GLA improves circulation and hormonal balance, making it a great choice for women with PMS symptoms
Why Evening Primrose Oil?
There are about 50 essential elements our bodies require for everyday health and longevity. They are considered “essential” because our bodies cannot manufacture them; we must acquire them from the diet. Most of these essential elements are vitamins, minerals and amino acids, but two are essential fatty acids known as omega-3 and omega-6.
Vegetarian Evening Primrose Oil (EPO) is best known for its success in relieving Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS). It has also been nutritionally useful in the treatment of arthritis, high blood pressure and cholesterol. This is due to the rich (72%) omega-6 and (9%) gamma linolenic acid (GLA) content.
GLA plays an important role in the body’s first step in converting omega-6 to series one prostaglandin (PG1). PG1’s job is to keep the blood thin and moving smoothly. When healthy blood flows through the body, inflammation, high blood pressure, and some PMS symptoms are reduced.
In most healthy individuals, this conversion process (omega-6 to GLA to PG1) happens automatically. However, about 20% of the population cannot convert omega-6 into GLA effectively, and therefore must supplement through diet. This makes GLA-rich Evening Primrose Oil a prized therapeutic lipid.
Clinical studies on EPO suggest it reduces inflammation and alleviates some forms of hormonal stress. This nutritional property, in conjunction with the presence of other phyto (or plant-based) nutrients, makes EPO an attractive source of hormone builders. EPO also contains other nutritional lipids such as phospholipids, sterols, and other active phyto-compounds. Independent medical research indicates these compounds are significant immune system and cell builders.
Borage Oil is also a GLA-rich oil. Some consumers experience better results with Evening Primrose Oil and some with Borage Oil. This is attributed to the many other phyto-compounds present in these oils. Therefore, some experimentation is recommended to determine which oil performs better.
* My two cents! Very good EFA. Helpful to use during dieting. Also helps to combat the negative affects of an AAS cycle.
