Evening primrose oil can help dry skin (including eczema and psoriasis, behavioural problems in children, circulatory problems, premenstrual syndrome and more. It's a great skin supplement. Evening primrose oil is taken because it contains gamma linoleic acid (GLA). The main omega-6 fatty acid is linoleic acid. Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and arachidonic acid are made from it by the body.

Unfortunately some bodies are not very good at making GLA, so this is where a supplement of evening primrose oil can be useful.

Omega-6 deficiency can lead to

  • eczema
  • psoriasis
  • hair loss
  • infertility
  • weight gain
  • behavioural and circulatory problems
  • breast tenderness and carbohydrate craving associated with premenstrual syndrome
Smoking, alcohol, viral infections, eating a lot of saturated fats, being short of zinc, magnesium and vitamin B6 may upset the production of GLA too.

Some people have problems with the conversion process within the body. Signs of this can include hyperactivity, thirst and small bumps on the upper arm.

Supplements of evening primrose oil supply GLA and so by-pass one of the steps in the conversion.

Essential fatty acids are important because the body uses them to make hormone-like substances called prostaglandins that are vital for good health. They are also used to make nerve cells and cellular membranes.
