Evening Primrose Oil
General information
NEWmega™ Evening Primrose Oil contains 9-10% of the scarce but valuable omega-6 Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA). GLA is important for the body to attain and maintain a healthy balance. The body has the ability to obtain GLA from the essential fatty acid omega-6 Linoleic Acid (LA). However, many things can interfere with this conversion. GLA is converted in the body to a hormone-like substance called prostaglandin E1 (PGE1).
Background / Origin
Evening Primrose Oil comes from the yellow flowered Evening Primrose plant. The plant has the peculiar habit of opening its flowers towards the evening. The Evening Primrose is one of the most remarkable plants in medical history. It goes back 70,000 years and was originally founded in Mexico and Central America.
