What is evening primrose oil?
Evening primrose (Oenothera biennis) is a yellow-flowered plant native to North America. Its small seeds are pressed for an oil that is naturally high in linoleic acid and also carries GLA, an omega-6 fatty acid found in few common foods. The oil in Ultra Prim is pressed without heat, meaning the seeds are crushed mechanically and no solvent is applied to draw the oil out.

I have taken this for years. It helps so much with my pms particularly the irritability. Instead of being in a rage over something stupid, it reduces it to mild irritation.

Great product and price
I was buying a pharmacy brand of primrose oil before this and I’m now saving a good amount of money by switching to vitasave. The product is also great, I only need to take. Couple of capsules a day now, instead of 4-6. Would recommend.
