Super Primrose (1300mg)
Overview
The oil of the Evening Primrose flower is very high in a fatty acid called Gamma Linoleic Acid, or GLA. GLA is a healthy fat, and it has some unique properties that make it an extremely valuable addition to your diet. NOW Super Primrose is a concentrated source of GLA, extracted from Evening Primrose without using the chemical solvents that other supplements rely on.
Our bodies use GLA to maintain healthy immune and inflammatory response, and supports skin circulatory health. GLA rich Super Primrose may also help reduce inflammation as well as treat skin conditions like eczema. The Women's Health formula is especially valuable in reducing the uncomfortable effects of PMS through nutritional support. With 1300mg of GLA rich Evening Primrose Oil in each softgel, NOW Super Primrose will make a great addition to your diet.
