In North America however, indigenous tribes had already been using the plant as a food and medicinal crop for hundreds of years. The oil is obtained from the evening primrose Oenothera biennis L., a wild plant native to northern America that bears no relation to the UK's native wild primrose. The beautiful evening primrose flower blooms for a single day, but the oil from its seeds helps you bloom year after year. The plant produces an oil rich in the omega 6 fatty acids GLA (gamma linolenic acid) and LA (linoleic acid).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhy choose Healthspan's Evening Primrose Oil 500 mg capsules?\u003cbr\u003e\nWe make our capsules using evening primrose oil extracted only by mechanical compression, without the use of heat or solvents, ensuring an optimum purity and a high content of the beneficial omega 6 fatty acids GLA and LA. We also make our capsules small so are easy for you to swallow. LA is an essential fatty acid which the body cannot produce so we must obtain through diet. You must ensure the right levels of Evening Primrose Oil are taken in order to reap its benefits. Our nutritionists advise 1000 mg per day as a cosmetic supplement, and 2000 mg (four capsules) per day over a period of three to four months as an ideal intake. Up to six capsules daily may be taken before the onset of periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInformation Table\u003cbr\u003e\nPer capsule |  | % NRV\u003cbr\u003e\nEvening Primrose Oil | 500 mg | \u003cbr\u003e\nproviding Total Omega 6 Fatty Acids | 350 mg | \u003cbr\u003e\nof which LA | 308 mg | \u003cbr\u003e\nand GLA | 42 mg | \u003cbr\u003e\nVitamin E | 6 mg α-TE | 50\u003cbr\u003e\nNRV = Nutrient Reference Value \u003cbr\u003e\n            α-TE = Alpha Tocopherol Equivalent |\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eIngredients\u003cbr\u003e\nEvening Primrose (Oenothera biennis) Oil, Capsule (Glycerol, Starch, Carrageenan), D Alpha Tocopherol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDirections for Use\u003cbr\u003e\nSwallow two capsules daily with water.
