• Contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity.

Cold-pressed evening primrose oil provides the fatty acids linoleic acid (LA) and gamma linoleic acid (GLA). Not all fatty acids can be produced in the body, so they must be supplied through diet or supplementation.
Within the body, linoleic acid is metabolized to GLA, which is essential for the production of certain hormone-like substances called prostaglandins. Human breast milk is one of the richest natural sources of GLA, while LA can be found in safflower, hemp, and sunflower oils. Vitamin B6 contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity.
