Valupak Evening Primrose Oil Capsules 1000mg Taken from the seeds of the Evening Primrose plant, this nutritional oil is rich in gamma linoleic acid (GLA). GLA plays a key role in the formation of several hormones that regulate many of the body's activities, including the reproductive cycle. A healthy metabolism can produce GLA from naturally occurring acids found in leafy vegetables, but poor diet & high cholesterol levels can affect the process. When an additional supply of GLA is required, Evening Primrose Oil has become a favoured treatment for a number of conditions including breast pain, eczema, high cholesterol, rheumatoid arthritis & diabetic nerve damage. It is also considered to have healing properties & can help with skin diseases & wounds. Evening Primrose Oil is popular with women, since it has been shown to ease menstrual & menopausal problems such as muscle cramps & breast tenderness. Valupak Evening Primrose Oil Capsules are not suitable for vegetarians unless the capsule is split.
