Questions and answers:
Question: I have high cholesterol, will this increase my cholesterol?
A: Evening Primrose is used as a dietary source of fatty acids and includes Omega 6, 9 and Linoleic Acid and Gamma Linoleic. Many years of research have pointed to Evening Primrose as the most reliable source of GLA (Omega 6). Evening Primrose comes from the seed of a wild flower that grows through the United States. The body cannot make GLA so it must be consumed by outside sources. The body can convert another omega 6 fatty acid, linoleic acid found in nuts and vegetables oils, into GLA. Evening Primrose has been known for it's positive effects on retaining moisture in the skin, hair and nails and it's anti-inflammatory effects and PMS. According to the US National Library of Medicine, "Research shows that taking Primrose Oil daily for up to 4 months does not affect cholesterol levels.
