Himalayan Organics Evening Primrose Oil 1000mg – 60 Softgels

Evening Primrose Oil (EPO), cold-pressed from the seeds of Oenothera biennis, is one of the richest plant-based sources of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) — an omega-6 fatty acid that plays a key regulatory role in the body’s inflammatory pathways and hormonal balance. Unlike the shorter-chain linoleic acid abundant in most vegetable oils, GLA can be directly converted to dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA), which serves as a precursor to anti-inflammatory prostaglandins that help balance the body’s inflammatory response.

Evening Primrose Oil has been studied extensively for its role in supporting women’s wellness. It is widely used for managing premenstrual symptoms including breast tenderness, bloating, and mood changes, and for supporting skin moisture and elasticity from within. The GLA content helps maintain healthy cell membrane structure in skin cells, contributing to a smoother, more hydrated complexion and supporting the skin’s natural barrier function.

For menopausal wellness, Evening Primrose Oil may help ease hot flushes and support skin integrity during the hormonal transitions associated with perimenopause and menopause. It is also valued for its role in maintaining healthy joint tissue and bone mineral content alongside calcium and Vitamin D.

Himalayan Organics Evening Primrose Oil 1000mg softgels are cold-pressed from non-GMO seeds, preserving the full GLA content and naturally occurring Vitamin E. Each softgel is manufactured in a GMP-certified facility with certificate of analysis for fatty acid profile.
