What is Evening Primrose Oil?
Originally native to areas of North America, the evening primrose plant can be found today in most arable areas around the world, with there now being around 150 different varieties.
The oil that is pressed from the seeds of the evening primrose plant has been popularly consumed for years in supplement form, due to the oil containing a high quantity of Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA), a fatty acid that belongs to the omega 6 family.
What are the Benefits of Evening Primrose Oil?
Evening primrose oil, often shortened to EPO, is massively popular with female customers thanks to its ability to naturally assist with hormonal balance. As the GLA content provides women with a regular supply of polyunsaturated fatty acids, this supports the normal function of the menstrual cycle.
Aside from this, evening primrose oil is also popular because of its contribution to healthy skin and for this reason it has now become a staple in many beauty regimes.

The fatty acids found within evening primrose oil are vulnerable to damage from heat and air, and so need to be carefully extracted from the seeds of the flower. To achieve this, an advanced cold-pressing technique is used to extract the oil at low temperatures and protect its delicate structure. This process ensures that each soft-gel capsule contains concentrated levels of GLA, to make this supplement one of the finest on the market.
