Evening Primrose Oil (EPO) has long been used as a natural aid thanks to two fatty acids – GLA and ALA – within it which are thought to contribute to a number of processes around the body. In fact, EPO is currently one of the most popular herbal supplements you can buy!
Before you browse our complete range of evening primrose oil tablets in various strengths, read on to learn a bit more about what it is and how exactly it might benefit your body.
What is evening primrose oil?
The evening primrose is a yellow flowering plant that’s native to South and North America; however, it’s also commonly grown in some parts of Europe. The oil, that’s thought to have several potential health benefits, is sourced directly from the seeds of the plant.
Benefits of evening primrose oil
EPO’s list of potential uses is pretty lengthy! That’s mostly down to the fact it contains gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), a type of omega 6 fatty acid which is packed with goodness and typically only found in a handful of plant-derived oils.
The body uses GLA to make hormone-like compounds called prostaglandins, which are lipid based substances that control numerous physiological processes in the body. This includes:
Our own brand EPO supplements are fortified with vitamin B6 which helps contribute to normal hormonal balance.
Combined evening primrose oil supplements
In addition to taking pure evening primrose oil supplements, you’ll find we stock numerous tablets which have been combined with other nutrients.
Other nutrients that EPO is commonly mixed with include vitamin B6, which is needed by the body to make haemoglobin and to turn food into energy, and starflower oil, another rich source of GLA.
Cold-pressed EPO supplements
You’ll find most EPO supplements have been cold-pressed. This refers to the way the oil has been extracted from its original source. Usually, the evening primrose seeds will have been harvested at the prime moment and the oil then extracted from them using hydraulic pressure that uses no heat or chemicals.
This method allows the evening primrose oil to be as pure and natural as possible, meaning it’ll be packed with the maximum amount of goodness possible for your body.
