organic Evening Primrose seed Oil
Evening primrose (Oenothera biennis) is a plant native to North and Central America and a member of the Onagraceae family. It is an annual plant that has bright yellow flowers that bloom in the evening (hence the name). The plant produces seeds that are rich in a fatty acid called gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). Evening primrose oil is a dietary supplement that is derived from the seeds of the evening primrose plant. It is rich in GLA (gamma-linolenic acid), an omega-6 fatty acid, and is sometimes taken to improve the health of the skin, reduce inflammation, and reduce the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). It has also been used historically for alcohol use disorder. Dietary supplements containing evening primrose oil generally are standardized by their gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and linoleic acid (LA) content.
