Evening Primrose (Oenothera biennis) is a flowering plant native to North America, best known for its therapeutic oil extracted from the seeds. Rich in gamma-linolenic acid (GLA)—an essential omega-6 fatty acid—Evening Primrose Oil (EPO) is widely used as a natural supplement to support women’s health, skin hydration, and inflammation management.
