Fatty acids

saturated 16% · monounsaturated 18% · polyunsaturated 66%

linoleic acid (omega 6) 37 g (per 100 g)

alpha-linolenic acid (omega 3) 0.3 g (per 100 g)

Storage

In the fridge, dark. Usually in capsules.

Notable

The highest known content of gamma-linolenic acid, about 20 g per 100 g — more than twice that of evening primrose. From the seed, not the herb: the herb carries pyrrolizidine alkaloids, the seed practically none. Look for a product that states this.
