Evening Primrose Oil is an essential fatty acid supplement that contains gamma-linolenic acid (GLA),and linoleic acid.  These essential fatty acids assist the body in producing prostaglandins.

Each Preservative-Free soft gel capsule provides 45mg of GLA and 300mg of Linoleic acid, together with 10mg of Vitamin E.  

Vitamin E is an antioxidant vitamin which contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, and protects DNA, proteins and lipids from oxidative damage.

The antioxidant properties of vitamin E in this formula protect the evening primrose oil from oxidative damage. Other beneficial fatty acids in this formula include oleic acid, palmitic acid, and stearic acid.
