Evening Primrose Oil

Evening primrose oil supplements are made from the seeds of the evening primrose plant and are usually available as softgels, capsules or liquid oil. They naturally provide fatty acids, including gamma-linolenic acid, with different amounts and serving recommendations across products. Compare the quantity of oil and gamma-linolenic acid per serving, capsule count and additional ingredients. Research does not support treating evening primrose oil as a proven solution for every skin, hormonal or general wellness concern. It is generally well tolerated by adults, but it may cause abdominal discomfort, nausea or diarrhoea and can interact with medicines.
