Supports decreased inflammation and helps your metabolism. Available in either 500 mg or 1,300 mg. How does Evening Primrose Oil work? Evening Primrose Oil is derived from the seeds of the North American Evening Primrose plant, a perennial found in North America. Many Native American tribes used the plant as a source of food. The evening primrose plant contains an essential fatty acid called gamma linolenic acid (GLA). The body does not produce essential fatty acids so they must be ingested through food and supplementation. GLA is rich in PGE1 prostaglandins—these promote healthy skin and overall hormone balance as well as a healthy cardiovascular system and reduced inflammation in the body. NSI Evening Primrose Oil is better because it:. Is expeller-pressed, ensuring you a pure, hexane-free formula. Costs less than major brands, yet gives you with the maximum potency

"Evening Primrose Oil is recommended by Dr. Andrew Weil, especially for women in menopause, to help with hot flashes, stronger nails and less hair loss. I take this faithfully every morning and evening. Have found an improvement in my nails not breaking as easily, and now at menopause my hair seems thicker than ever. While I am mystified, I am very pleased and will continue to take this for the rest of my life. The price makes it affordable for all women."

"I purchased this product on the advice of my doctor. I was having hot flashes. She and her nurse both raved about EPO's ability help reduce or eliminate them so I decided to give it a try. After 2 weeks my hot flashes were gone. I continue to take this product and am very happy with it!"

"This product is way too low in the most important element in evening primrose oil - GLA. Most other cold pressed evening primrose products 1200 to 1350 MG contain around 120 MG or so of GLA. One example would be Source Naturals 1350 MG contains 120 MGs of GLA per capsule and is close to this one in price range, however it is not the only one. My advise, is check it out for yourself."

"I heard that taking Evening Primrose Oil 1,000 mg. along with 1,000 mg. of Flaxseed Oil per day could help relieve hot flashes. I have been taking this combination now for a year and it has lowered the tolerance level and frequency of the hot flashes. Plus, I receive other benefits that both offer."
"I had a serious problems with receding my hair in my front part of my head. After finding out that this product could very much help me in restoring my hair and thicking, I decided to get it. WOW, its been great and my hair feels the best ever. Your price is also the best."
