NOW Foods Supplements, Black Currant Oil 1000 mg Double Strength with 140mg of GLA (Gamma-Linolenic Acid), 100 Softgels

I bought this due to having Lasik and my doctor gave me supplements where this was the same main ingredient. It's helped my eyes, my Crohns, and my joints! This product is a godsend! It's easy to swallow. It's about the size of a fish oil pill so a little big (they look exactly the same), there's no taste or burps though, it's very effective!

This helped my dry eyes. My eyes don't get as dry as they did before I started using this product. They're not as dry in the morning when I wake up either. This pill was more effective than fish oil for me. The pills are a bit large, but still easy to swallow. I plan to repurchase these! :)

My eye doctor suggested this... They are a little hard for me to swallow... I'll do an update if I notice any changes... It's wipe to be good for your eyes and eyesight...? Well see! No pun intended.

This is #1 on AMAZON but it is *not* the best black currant oil for people with real health problems. I have dry eye, used this for years. It definitely helped some. But I tried the Vitamin Shoppe brand, which is much more potent, and my eyes did much better--closest to normal they've ever been. PMS got better as well (and I'm in my 40s). NOW products work at about 30% of what better brands work at. So you will get something from them. But please understand you're not saving as much money as you think. Like with the Vitamin Shoppe brand I can take 1,000 mg and it does more than NOW at 3,000 mg. If you have some serious health condition, I do not recommend this brand. I recommend going with a higher quality brand, even if it cost more. I gave this 5 stars so that it would be visible.

I notice the difference in my skin’s dryness level, when I stop taking these oil capsules. I also have dry eyes and the oil helps with that, too. However, I find Castor Oil to be more effective for my dry eyes.

Am taking Black Current Oil for regenerating head hair growth (as a senior-aged female.). I am pairing it with Pumpkin Seed Oil (: NOW’s 1000 mg.)Have based my decision for these Two Oils from many others’ reviews of various male & gender-neutral supplements.These two, per reviews, seem to Not Promote male-facial hair for females.I have found that spacing out to one capsule of each every 4th Day - limits the normally occurring facial hairs - and my head hair is vital & full.I have taken other supplements (collagen …) off & on for 6 years & used various hair shampoos - so do suggest these Two Oils to be in addition to other Healthy Hair options !!!

After using about months, my hair loss did slow down noticeably
