120 Evening Primrose Oil Gels - 1300mg Expellar Pressed
EPO (Evening Primrose Oil) is one of the most concentrated sources of the essential fatty acid GLA, a substance that the human body cannot produce, and may be specifically useful for times when GLA is in short supply.
Of course, most women know this as the ripening agent they can use for nearing your date in pregnancy. Midwives recommend it's use to soften the cervix and ready it for the upcoming dilation. When you would want to start taking it is up to the midwife. You can also call us for recommendations on dosage that we have found in Holistic Midwifery by Anne Frye.
“I was recommended Evening Primrose Oil for PMS symptoms. I'd start feeling anxiety, irritability, bloatedness, headaches, etc., and would take 1000 mg immediately, then 1000mg more—depending on the time of day—for a week or so, ’til symptoms passed. As my girls (six in a row) got old enough, if they started getting crabby, they were encouraged to take a ‘jelly pill.’ If someone contended that they didn't need one, that was all the more reason to take one. It became a given that if you said that, you went to get one out of the cabinet! We never had ill side effects—just an evening out of temperament and an easing of the uncomfortableness of PMS, including cramping, headaches and bloatedness. I recommended them to a friend who was approaching, if not in, menopause. ‘Couldn't hurt,’ was what we thought. I gave her a small handful and she came back a week later. ‘I'm gonna tell all my friends about these!!’ She was SO excited. I've been able to share this small ‘gift’ with many women ... and husbands!!!” --Mad No More, on EPO |
