EVENING PRIMROSE OIL
DESCRIPTION :
Solvent-free,cold-pressed Evening Primrose Oil extracted from the seeds of
the Evening Primrose plant.
BIOCHEMISTRY :
Evening Primrose Oil is the best known source of the essential fatty acid,
Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA). GLA is normally synthesized in the liver from
dietary linoleic acid (LA). This reaction, however is frequently deficient
in many people because of interference by sugar, saturated fats, and
trans-fatty acids (margarine). In addition the conversion requires
Vitamins B-3, B-6, and C as well as the minerals magnesium, zinc, and
copper. Any deficiencies of these nutrients will affect the conversion.
PHYSIOLOGY : GLA is
part of the Omega 6 series of essential fatty acids and is the critical
precursor to the series 1 prostaglandins and other hormones in the body.
The PGE1 series prostaglandins along with the PGE3 series protect the body
against the deleterious effects of PGE2 series prostaglandins, such as
high blood pressure, sticky platelets, inflammation, water retention, and
lowered immune function. The series 2 prostaglandins are made from
arachidonic acid which is derived from consumption of excess animal
products.
INDICATIONS :
Numerous clinical trials have demonstrated the beneficial effects of GLA
for a wide variety of disorders including Atherosclerosis, Diabetes
Mellitus, Eczema, Multiple Sclerosis, and Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS).
DIRECTIONS FOR USE :
100-200 mg/day GLA, 500-1500 mg per day- Evening Primrose Oil
TOXICITY, CAUTIONS & CONTRAINDICATIONS:
No known toxicity associated with Evening Primrose Oil. Excess consumption
can result in oily skin, an indication to decrease dosage.
