Evening Primrose Oil

What is Evening Primrose Oil

OstroVit Evening Primrose Oil is a food supplement in easy-to-swallow softgels. Evening primrose oil is obtained from plants of the Oenothera L. family, most commonly from the seeds of evening primrose biennial—a plant originating from North America that is now also found in Europe.

Evening primrose oil is characterised by its content of essential fatty acids, particularly linoleic acid (LA) and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), which belong to the group of polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acids. As the human body cannot synthesise these substances naturally, they can be supplied through the daily diet or via supplementation.
