Patient One Evening Primrose Oil supplies 1000 mg of 100% pure, cold-pressed evening primrose oil (EPO), providing 90 mg gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and 650-850 mg of linoleic acid (LA). These important omega-6 fatty acids play a beneficial role in supporting cellular health and overall good health.

Evening primrose oil has been used for centuries as nutritional support for a broad range of physiological functions, including joint, skin, and cardiovascular health, as well as for reducing mild discomfort associated with PMS and menopause.

GLA and LA are precursors of prostaglandins–physiologically active lipid compounds that have diverse functions including vasodilation and modulation of the inflammatory response.

GLA formed in the body is ultimately metabolized to dihomogammalinolenic acid (DGLA). Several studies suggest that DGLA promotes healthy prostaglandin E1 production and supports healthy cytokine activity, a mechanism that may help to support joint comfort. PGE1 also supports skin and nerve health.

Regular supplementation with evening primrose oil may be beneficial for people consuming diets high in animal foods and processed vegetable oil and rich in saturated fats, as well as for those with moderate to high consumption of alcohol or a deficiency of zinc, magnesium and Vitamin B6.
