Vita Natura evening primrose oil 500 is a product with a wide range of uses, whereby the intake of special and essential fatty acids can help support the metabolism, the skin and mental resilience during the menopause.

Evening primrose oil (Oenothera biennis) is high in polyunsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), including linoleic acid and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), while its saturated fat content is low.

linoleic acid

Linoleic acid is abundant in many vegetable oils, but one of the few rich sources of GLA is evening primrose oil. 

Gamma Linoleic Acid

Gamma-linolenic acid is one of the omega-6 fatty acids. This fatty acid is not an essential fatty acid because the body can make it from linoleic acid. However, sometimes there may be an increased need for gamma-linolenic acid and in such a case supplementing with evening primrose oil may be advisable. Gamma-linolenic acid supports the formation of prostaglandins, substances that are important for many metabolic processes in our body. It also has a beneficial effect on the skin's regenerative capacity and mental balance in older women. Incidentally, the body can produce most of the fatty acids itself. However, linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid are so-called essential fatty acids:

  • These fatty acids must be supplied to the body through food.
  • As an essential fatty acid, linoleic acid is a precursor to many other important substances in the body. Linoleic acid is important for vision, nerves, skin and the immune system, among other things.
