Evening Primrose Oil is exceptionally high in Gamma-Linolenic Acid or GLA, an Omega 6 fatty acid with an essential role in the body for the production of certain hormones (prostaglandins). Since the body does not produce EFA's, they must be ingested through a proper diet or supplementation.

Evening primrose oil can  help with many problems such as:

PMS : This can help with symptoms of PMS such as moodswings, bloating and breast tenderness

Eczema: Eczema symptoms include redness and scaling in addition to itching. More than 30 human studies report the benefits of EPO for eczema and dermatitis. A study of 1,207 patients reported that EPO was beneficial for skin conditions, including itching, crusting, edema (fluid, swelling), and redness. EPO can be used in children and adults with skin conditions.

Breast Pain: EPO is officially licensed for the treatment of breast pain (mastalgia) in the United Kingdom and considered first-line therapy in several European countries. EPO was found effective at decreasing breast pain in many clinical studies.

Menopausal symptoms: Although EPO has gained some popularity for treating hot flashes, the research to date has not confirmed that GLA or EPO is beneficial for these symptoms.
