Neo Evening Primrose is a food supplement that helps to improve women's health during different stages of their lives. This is because its fatty acids promote cardiovascular and bone health, as well as helping to regulate female hormones.
Neo Evening Primrose is a supplement rich in omega-6 fatty acids and phytoestrogens, a mixture that helps regulate female hormones. In this way, it promotes mood, helps to relieve hot flushes, palpitations and irritability that accompany the menopause.
It also has diuretic properties that support the elimination of liquids, to alleviate fluid retention, which causes oedemas and weight gain. It also favours the production of prostaglandins, molecules that act as a natural anti-inflammatory.
It also helps to reduce high cholesterol levels to improve blood flow to the heart and brain. This is because it prevents the hardening of fat in veins and arteries, as well as helping to increase the flexibility of the circulatory system. It thus helps to prevent problems such as the formation of varicose veins, phlebitis, thrombi, heart attacks and strokes.
It also benefits the absorption of calcium to strengthen bone tissue, which is unprotected in the absence of oestrogen. It thus helps to prevent the onset of degenerative bone conditions, as well as speeding up bone healing processes.
Women suffering from the discomfort caused by menstrual syndrome will also benefit from its anti-inflammatory properties and its ability to help regulate hormones. This helps to soothe menstrual cramps, as well as nervous disorders.
