Lamberts Extra High Strength Evening Primrose Oil 90 Capsules is a vegan food supplement that blends evening primrose seed oil with starflower (borage) seed oil to provide 120mg of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) per 1000mg capsule. Each capsule also contains vitamin E. The pack is sold as Evening Primrose Oil with Starflower Oil 1000mg (12% GLA) and the 90 capsules give you a flexible daily amount of 1 to 3 capsules.
**Key Features**
- **120mg GLA per capsule:** The 1000mg capsule is labelled 12% GLA, which is a guaranteed 120mg of gamma-linolenic acid, a fatty acid found in evening primrose and starflower oils.
- **Two-oil blend:** Each capsule contains 65% evening primrose seed oil and 35% starflower seed oil, and Lamberts selects the oil for a consistent GLA level.
- **Vitamin E added:** One capsule provides 10mg of vitamin E, which is 83% of the Nutrient Reference Value (NRV). Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
- **Suitable for vegetarians and vegans:** The capsule shell is made from plant-derived ingredients, and the label confirms it is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
- **Flexible daily amount:** Adults can take 1 to 3 capsules daily with a meal, so the pack lasts between 30 and 90 days.
