OstroVit Evening Primrose Oil provides 1000mg of evening primrose oil in one convenient daily softgel. Naturally rich in omega-6 fatty acids, each serving supplies 700mg linoleic acid (LA) and 90mg gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) alongside vitamin E, which contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
About this product
Evening primrose oil is produced from the seeds of plants belonging to the Oenothera family and is particularly valued as a natural source of the omega-6 fatty acids linoleic acid (LA) and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). OstroVit keeps the formula refreshingly simple. Each softgel contains 1000mg of evening primrose oil, standardised to contain 70% linoleic acid and 9% gamma-linolenic acid. That provides 700mg LA and 90mg GLA per daily serving.
The formula also contains 10mg of vitamin E, an antioxidant vitamin that contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. With just one softgel needed each evening, it's an easy way to incorporate evening primrose oil into your everyday supplement routine.

What are LA and GLA in evening primrose oil?
Pick up a bottle of evening primrose oil and you'll probably encounter two abbreviations: LA and GLA. They're closely related, but they're not the same thing.
- LA: Linoleic Acid
Linoleic acid (LA) is an essential omega-6 fatty acid. “Essential” has a specific meaning in nutrition: our bodies can't make enough of it themselves, so we need to obtain it through our diet. It's found naturally in a variety of foods, particularly vegetable oils, nuts and seeds. One OstroVit softgel provides 700mg of LA.
- GLA: Gamma-Linolenic Acid
Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) is another member of the omega-6 fatty acid family, but it's present in our diets in much smaller amounts. The body can produce GLA from linoleic acid, while certain plant oils provide it directly. And that's one of the reasons evening primrose oil has become such a popular source of GLA. This formula provides 90mg of GLA per softgel.
Why does the percentage matter?
You'll sometimes see evening primrose supplements advertise a large oil content without telling you much about what's actually in that oil. Here, OstroVit specifies that its evening primrose oil contains: 70% LA + 9% GLA
So a 1000mg serving translates into: 700mg LA + 90mg GLA
That makes comparing different evening primrose supplements considerably easier.
