What are the benefits of GLA?
GLA is the precursor of an important prostaglandin called PGE1, which helps to regulate the nervous, cardiovascular and reproductive systems, skin condition and other biological functions. The body can make GLA from the Omega 6 fatty acid present in vegetable oils but the conversion is sometimes slow or partially blocked. So Lamberts Evening Primrose Oil can be very useful to the body in by-passing the conversion process, and numerous clinical trials have established that GLA supplements can be effective in a number of situations.
Is starflower oil good for menopause?
Yes. Starflower oil is often recommended instead of evening primrose oil to women going through the Menopause as well as for women at the time of their period.
