Both vitamin A and D contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system. Vitamin A also contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, while vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bone and muscle function.
Evening primrose oil is the oil extracted from the seeds of the flower Wild yellow evening primrose, Oenothera biennis, provides the fatty acids linoleic acid (LA) and gamma linolenic acid (GLA). Not all fatty acids can be produced in the body, so they must be supplied through diet or supplementation. Inside the body, linoleic acid is metabolized to GLA. GLA is used to produce hormone-like substances called prostaglandins.
