Product Brief: Evening Primrose is a plant common to North America with a history
of traditional
medicinal use. The oil from the seed of Evening Primrose is rich in
essential fatty acids
– polyunsaturated fats essential for the maintenance of good
health. The majority of
North Americans have difficulty converting Linolenic Acid
(LA) from the diet into
needed Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) because of dietary
deficiencies, aging and
disease conditions. This makes supplementation of Evening
Primrose Oil – a
rich source of GLA – so important. Without sufficient GLA intake,
the formation of
prostaglandins is inhibited, which in turn affects the regulation of
inflammation, blood
pressure and hormone production.
Scientific trials have
supported the use of Evening Primrose Oil for such conditions
as premenstrual
syndrome, fibrocystic breast pain, eczema, rheumatoid arthritis,
diabetes, heart
disease, osteoporosis and ulcerative colitis.
Health First Evening Primrose Oil is cold-pressed and
hexane-free to provide
consumers with a safe,
effective oil. It is also non-GMO. Health First Evening
Primrose Oil contains a
minimum of 9.5% GLA, with 10 IU of natural Vitamin E
to keep the oil
shelf-stable.
