"Nice to find this high of mg's at a reasonable price, but these capsules are huge! At least they are soft, so they do go down."

Works great on diaper rashes,
October 20, 2009
By LoveyV
from NC
|
"I bought this product for my children's diaper rashes. Works wonders on taking the sting out. Just open the capsule and squeeze it on like you would diaper cream. I love this for myself as well! I don't know what those people were talking about saying it had low GLA levels...they must have read the label wrong!"

Unexpected benefit,
July 12, 2009
By PhilosophicalCat
from Japan
|
"I began taking this to reduce PMS symptoms. It seemed to reduce breast tenderness and some cramps, but it seemed to increase the puffy lower belly feeling. That could just be my particular reaction. I found the very large pill to be surprisingly easy to swallow, and I had no problems with burps, aftertaste, or indigestion. I was not watching for improvements with nails, hair, or skin, but did notice these improvements - particularly with the elimination of dry skin and hangnails around the nails.
In addition, I noticed a completely unexpected side-effect. I've suffered for years from peeling lips (almost certainly a persistent fungus infection), but with EPO I found that the peeling became gentler, with lip skin returning to it's former moistness, softness and flexibility. It did not stop the peeling, but the skin came off without tearing the lips and making them bleed. Although no one has mentioned dry lip skin here, it would be interesting to see if others do experience an improvement in lip skin. It might sound trivial, but there is nothing attractive about dry, chapped, and often bleeding lips. Plus, being exposed to all the bacteria and other debris in the mouth, having healthy skin on the lips is one less weak point in the immune system.
Others have pointed out the relatively low GLA content of these capsules in this brand. However, I think the GLA level is sufficient to improve health. The price is excellent."

"This oil is very good tasting so next time I'm going to buy the liquid. I can't see any need for it to be inside a thick gelatin capsule."

PUFFY EYES ARE GONE,
February 20, 2009
By Eastwind
from Orlando, FL
|
"Evening Primrose is the best stuff for puffy eyes. After years of trying products to reduce puffy eyes, I found this. I take 3/day internally. I also take an additional pill and use a straight pin to puncture the capsule and squirt in a small dish and spread all over my face and around my eyes after washing before bed. I had good results with this regiem when I took 2 caps during the day, but adding an additional one (internally) at bedtime was the thing that made this the perfect remedy. I then began adding a little to my daily facial moisturizer and eye cream (had some left over from the night before) and another full pill to my daily body moisurizer. The results have been fabulous. My mother always told me that Evening Primrose was good for your skin, but you know how us daughters are... Wish I had listened to her earlier. Beautiful skin to you!"

"I had been meaning to try this for years to help w/ severe pms, but didnt. What a dummy i was! It took about 3 months to get levels to where they needed to be with me to help with this. I would say it is nothing short of a miracle.- Also I discovered that it also enriches hair & nails- which it does. i just didnt question why my hair and nails looked great. now i know."

"I take this for acne and use this on my face as well. Since taking this, I have noticed a 20% reduction in sebum production. I also use this as a moisturizer at night. Evening Primrose Oil is an anti-inflammatory and will work to dilute oil, so it does not clog your pores. I wake up with very nice skin."

Reduces hot flashes,
December 11, 2008
By StoneTramp
from Santa Cruz, California

"I really experienced how well this works to reduce hot flashes when I went without them for a month while traveling. The flashes came back with a vengeance! Returned to taking two 1300 mg capsules a day, 1 am, 1 pm, and my hot flashes are reduced to occasional warm flushes. No side effects."

"For no more than I paid I sure got alot of product. Just wish I had paid attention to the size of the pill as it's a little much on the stomach unless you've eaten just before taking it."
