How will Evening Primrose Oil help me?
Evening Primrose Oil is an essential fatty acid supplement that contains gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), and linoleic acid. These essential fatty acids assist the body in producing prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are a group of hormone-like lipid compounds that are derived enzymatically from fatty acids and have important functions in the body. Linoleic acid contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels. Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), assists in producing messengers in the body that perform hundreds of important functions.
Vitamin E is an antioxidant vitamin which contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress and protects DNA, proteins and lipids from oxidative damage. The antioxidant properties of vitamin E in this formula protect the evening primrose oil from oxidative damage. Other beneficial fatty acids in this formula include oleic acid, palmitic acid, and stearic acid.
