What the Label Data Shows

Evening Primrose Oil 500 mg is cataloged in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD) as a botanical with nutrients supplement built from 9 ingredients from Country Life, sold in softgel capsule form. These ingredients span 4 nutrient categories, other, fat, fatty acid, protein, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

Across a broader 9-ingredient formula, 9 of 9 carry no FDA reference-intake value, typical for a formula this size: larger blends tend to pull in botanicals, amino acids, and specialty compounds without an assigned Daily Value. Breadth like this isn't a red flag by itself.

Market status matters for supplement research. This product is currently listed as off-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2012-10-25. Once a product goes off-market, it is no longer manufactured or sold under this label, yet the DSLD keeps the record intact for historical reference, useful for researchers, anyone with an older bottle on hand, or tracking how formulations changed over time.
