Frequently asked questions
What is gamma-linolenic acid (GLA)?
GLA is an omega-6 fatty acid naturally found in oils such as evening primrose, borage, and black currant seed oils.
What is the difference between evening primrose oil and other plant-based oils like flaxseed oil or fish oil?
Evening primrose oil naturally contains gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an omega-6 fatty acid, while flaxseed oil is primarily rich in alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid. Fish oil contains EPA and DHA, also omega-3 fatty acids. The difference lies in the type of fatty acid and the source: evening primrose and flaxseed are plant-based, while fish oil is animal-derived.
What does 'cold-pressed' mean for evening primrose oil?
Cold-pressed means that the oil is extracted without heating. This helps preserve the natural properties of the oil, which is often desirable for sensitive fatty acids like GLA.
