Biolife Evening Primrose Oil - Can EPO cure laziness?
By Gaylen KaSai - Wednesday, November 28, 2018
Age has a
funny way of knocking some sense into me, which is good. I am becoming more
health conscious after I hit the 30 mark, and I regretted not practicing all of
this in my early 20’s. Thankfully It's never too late. Today, people are
becoming more and more aware of their health and living a healthy lifestyle is
becoming a trend. I see friends strive to abide living a healthy lifestyle
which includes workout sessions, eating clean, sleeping well, staying hydrated
and even meditation.
All these
does only good and no harm to us but did you know that for anyone conscious about their
health, good nutrition is the foundation and usually the starting point for
anybody looking to improve their health. Whether you opt to increase your
intake of organic vegetables, choose all-natural meat over factory farmed
versions, adopt a plant-based diet, or have a daily green smoothie, the key
idea is to give your body the nutrients it needs to keep you looking and
feeling your best.
While the common rule is always food
then supplements. What kind of supplements to take. How does supplements
benefit to an already healthy diet? The best supplements will vary from
individual to individual depending on their needs. Lifestyle, age, nutritional
deficiencies, and gender all play a role in what type of supplements would best
suit their lifestyle. No matter how healthy anybody’s lifestyle may be,
supplements should be part of a healthy and balanced diet.
So what supplements do I take? Recently I started my
self on : Biolife Evening Primrose Oil 1000mg Plus Vitamin E [EPO]. Biolife EPO
is a Basic health supplement that should be taken by all women because of the
benefits it will give us.
What is EPO?
Evening Primrose Oil is an oil extracted from seeds of the evening primrose
plant. The
evening primrose plant is one of the few native wildflowers in North America.
As the name suggests, the yellow evening primrose blooms at night. It produces
lovely yellow flowers from May to July. The evening primrose oil is known to
have many medicinal uses such as relieving headaches, inducing labor, curing
baldness and even as a treatment for laziness. *yes! Leaves, flower and
all would be boiled in a tea which was believed to be a treatment for laziness
and fatness. EPO is known to me as a health supplement for the skin, the oils
extracted from the little yellow flower has many benefits for the skin. EPO is rich in Omega 6 fatty acids which can only be found from certain sources
like plant oils and fish, Gamma-linoleic
Acid [GLA] and Linoleic Acid [LA].
Just so you know, no matter how smart our bodies are there are some things it
cannot produce which is why we need to rely on supplements. Here’s something
you might not know, we women complain a lot when it's that time of the month,
the time when we bleed so much but is still alive. Lol. Have you ever thought
about when you don’t bleed? Yes, Menopause. It will happen to every women and
just like PMS we can actually do something about it if we know what causes it .
Women suffering from PMS or Menopause has a deficiency in Gamma-linoleic Acid [GLA], GLA is required to help symptoms such as
headaches, depressions, irritability and bloating. It also relieves PMS Breast
Pain and tenderness. Apart from helping to improve hormonal balance, other
benefits of EPO are reducing inflammation and retaining the skin’s moisture
which is very important to me as my lifelong goal is to achieve flawless skin.
What are the benefits of EPO? Here are 22 Benefits which I
gathered, some which I find relevant to me and some not yet,but prevention is
better than cure.

Which Brand of EPO is
good? There are so many brands of EPO in the
markets it is indeed hard to decide. I have done countless of research on
what’s good and what’s not. For health and also easy on the bank accounts as we
all know supplements are a long term thingy. There is no point to take
supplement for just a month or two. I finally decided on BIOLIFE EVENING PRIMROSE OIL1000mg PLUS VITAMIN E. What contributed
to my decision these.
BIOLIFE is also a
well known brand name in Malaysia for 28 years and BIOLIFE products are easily
accessible in Malaysia. Biolife has a team of Nutritionist, Biochemist and Food
technologist and Microbiologist bringing the nest to consumers. Biolife also
has a wide range of products for the whole family from general health to
children’s wellness. The kids are Biolife AB Junior Pre & Pro and I have been taking Biolife Non-Acidic VItamin C
& Bioflavonoids since the beginning and now Evening Primrose Oil
1000mg Plus Vitamin E
It is important to choose the correct brand of
Evening Primrose Oil. I chose Biolife based on the strength of Evening Primrose Oil 1000mg Plus Vitamin E per capsule is 1000mg, which
is great as the recommended dosage for an adult is 1-3g a day. There is also 10% GLA per capsule. Now, I already
told you that EPO is derived from flowers but how are these oils derived also
plays an important role. Biolife Evening Primrose Oil is derived via the cold pressed method which doesn’t
impose any external heat and is able to retain the natural profile of the oil.
There’s also an additional ingredient in the Biolife Evening Primrose Oil which
is Vitamin E, Vitamin E is known as
an antioxidant for our skin. Biolife Evening
Primrose Oil comes in a huge glass bottle which contains 180 capsules and is
sold at RM63. 180 capsules is good for 6 months, which make each capsule
RM0.35. That’s very affordable for our health right? The recommended dosage is
1 capsule a day, however I do take 3
capsules a day when I find that my skin is getting too dry
So all that being said, I would strongly
recommend every women to start taking Biolife Evening Primrose Oil. Biolife
Evening Primrose Oil can be bought from Leading
pharmacies nationwide such as Watson’s, Guardian and local
Pharmacies. Do check out Biolife Website or BIOLIFEFACEBOOK for more information and promotions.
