Maxi Premium EPO capsules are a combination of hexane-free evening primrose and flaxseed oils, which provide essential fatty acids. Evening primrose oil is rich in essential fatty acids, polyunsaturated fats, which are as essential as vitamins and minerals for the maintenance of good health. The oil contains 74 percent linolenic acid (LA) and 8-10 percent gamma linolenic acid (GLA), better known as Omega 6 oils. SUPPLEMENT FACTS: Organic Evening Primrose oil (Oenothera biennis) (seeds) – 1500mg Organic Flaxseed oil (Linum usitatissimum) {min. 39% alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), linoleic acid (LA), and min. 10% oleic acid) – 375 mg HEALTHY OMEGA 3, 6 & 9 Flax seed oil, another important polyunsaturated fatty acid is an omega-3 fatty acid. Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is found in high amounts (50 to 60 percent) in flax seed oil and some vegetables. Approximately 10 percent of Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is transformed in our bodies into two other fatty acids: EPA and DHA (compounds found in fish oil). Consuming flax seed oil may be particularly important for vegetarians who do not eat fish. Flax seed oil is nature's most abundant source of lignans. Lignans are naturally-occurring substances found in plants and are classified as phytoestrogens. WHY MAXI?
