Skin problems or even worse skin diseases are often a very annoying and painful affair for those affected. Doctors often prescribe chemical preparations in the form of creams or tablets, but these can also cause all kinds of side effects.

In the meantime, there are also numerous natural-based preparations on the market that help just as well against skin problems and do not cause any side effects. Here, for example, we will take a closer look at evening primrose oil and its effect.

Evening primrose oil is a purely natural preparation. It is processed in creams or capsules and can therefore work either from the outside or from the inside. Evening primrose oil contains omega-6 fatty acids. Furthermore, vitamins and minerals as well as amino acids are components of evening primrose oil.

In the case of skin diseases such as neurodermatitis or psoriasis, the often very stressed, flaky and dry skin becomes supple again through treatment with evening primrose oil. The symptoms of severe itching are also alleviated. Evening primrose oil is a medicinally recognised preparation and is also recommended by dermatologists.

If evening primrose oil is used as a cream over the skin, the high content of fat in the oil can provide the skin with sufficient moisture and thus relieve the symptoms such as itching. Evening primrose oil has an anti-inflammatory and regenerating effect on the skin.

Evening primrose oil moisturises the skin, has an anti-inflammatory and regenerating effect, is well tolerated and also strengthens the immune system.

Furthermore, evening primrose oil can also be used for severe acne or generally impure skin.

It also has the property of minimising the symptoms of menopausal complaints. These include fatigue and headaches. The hormonal balance is brought back into balance by taking evening primrose oil capsules.

Wounds can also be treated with evening primrose oil. It helps with cell formation and thus faster healing.

Evening primrose oil has hardly any side effects. In rare cases, headaches, stomach aches, nausea or skin rashes may occur.

Other natural preparations for skin problems or skin diseases include zinc ointment, black cumin oil, green lipped muscle extract and grape seed extract. These also have an anti-inflammatory effect.

But no matter which of the preparations mentioned is used, the most important thing for healthy skin is a healthy diet. This must be balanced and contain sufficient vitamins and minerals.
