If you want to keep the skin healthy and help protect it against free radicals, reach for cold pressed evening primrose oil with vitamins A and E. The excess of free radicals leads to oxidative stress, which plays a key role in the ageing process, causing the deterioration of the appearance of the skin and the formation of wrinkles [1].
Evening primrose is a plant native to North and South America, which also grows in Europe and Asia. Native Americans used it as a compress for bruises and to soothe skin inflammation. Currently, evening primrose oil is promoted as a dietary component that promotes the health of the skin and mucous membranes [2]. The beneficial properties of evening primrose oil aredue to its high content of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). The GLA contributes to the skin's proper hydration, firmness, elasticity, smoothness and resistance to fatigue. This acid is a component of ceramides that build the skin's protective barrier and improves its blood circulation, reducing inflammation [3].Primrose oil contains vitamin A, which causes the skin to have a healthy appearance, increases the epidermis, making the skin thicken, and has antioxidant properties which protect your cells against the effects of free radicals.Vitamin E inhibits the production of reactive oxygen species, and also has the ability to build into lipid structures, protecting against photoaging of the skin [4]. When our diet is deficient in GLA acid and vitamins A and E, there is a risk of increased loss of water through the skin which can lead to dryness, roughness and increased susceptibility to irritation. All of these can make skin age faster and appear "tired". It can be worth considering the supplementation of these ingredients.
We offer you a comprehensive supplement containing evening primrose oil enriched with vitamin A and natural vitamin E in the form of D-alpha-tocopherol. It is in the form of soft capsules that are easy to swallow. The daily dose provides as much as 1800 mg of cold-pressed evening primrose oil, including 144 mg of GLA linolenic acid. In addition, it contains 18 mg of natural vitamin E, i.e. 150% of the daily requirement for vitamin E, and 600 mcg of vitamin A, which provides 75% of the daily requirement for this vitamin. This composition is a bomb for your skin!
