Holland & Barrett Evening Primrose and Borage Oil supplement has been formulated to nourish the body with two fatty acids that it cannot produce on its own: linolenic acid (LA) and gamma linolenic acid (GLA). These evening primrose oil supplements also contain vitamin B6, which contributes to the regulation of normal hormonal activity. Within the body, linoleic acid is metabolised into GLA, which is essential for the production of certain hormone-like substances called prostaglandins. Not all fatty acids can be produced in the body and therefore must be obtained through diet or supplements. Human breast milk is one of the richest natural sources of GLA, while LA can be found in safflower, hemp and sunflower oils.
•High potency GLA (gamma linolenic acid)
•Vitamin B6 contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity
•Easy-to-swallow soft gel capsules
