Evening Primrose Oil
About 25 years ago, I read an article in a muscle magazine about Evening Primrose Oil, as a BB supplement.
The story was that it enhanced prostaglandins, and that this was a good thing for muscle growth (and, for the opposite reason, taking aspirin was a bad thing, as that suppressed prostaglandins).
Recently, I saw a big bottle of Evening Primrose Oil caps (1000mg) at half price in a supermarket, and bought it.
A quick look around the internet didn't turn up any Evening Primrose Oil / muscle building information, although it is promoted as good for lots of other things, notably PMS (which I suffer from only at second hand ...).
So, has anyone else heard of Evening Primrose Oil being a muscle supplement? Or any other opinions on the stuff?
