Barlean's Evening Primrose Oil Softgels with Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA) - Non-GMO, Gluten-Free - 60-Softgels

Barleans to me equals quality and a name that I've trusted since I started supplementing my diet over 20 years ago. Evening primrose is a great way to create hormonal balance and comfort during your moon cycle. Less cramps, better mood, the list goes on. Do your research and see if it's a good fit for you, then buy Barleans, don't mess around with lesser products. Wishing you comfort and health.✌️

Update-just ordered my second bottle, and I'm pretty certain I'll be using primrose steadily from now on. It really made a difference by toning down my cramps, and if I can take a natural supplement instead of a pain pill I'm all for it. Some people say this is good for weight loss or skin conditions...I did not notice any of that after a full 120 capsule bottle. If some miracle happens after the second one I'll keep you posted. Great quality, no aftertaste, fresh supply from the seller..overall the quality was very, very good. That being said, the pills are HUGE and I had some pretty nasty gas for a few weeks which I can only attribute to an "adjustment period" for oil supplements. But, I don't reek anymore, my skin hasn't changed much, but my cramps and menstrual symptoms seem to have calmed down quite a bit for me during the second month of pills (I cramp pretty significantly and need to be on a constant stream of Advil for days-not this past month though-so YAY!) . I'll probably give this a good 90-120 days before I make a definitive call on that though-could just be a fluke.

I was amazed by the product's anti-inflammatory properties.

For years I have suffered with severe emotional dysregulation and PMS. When I entered peri-menopause in my mid-40's, it got worse. I've been plied with Paxil (gained weight, cried all the time, acne), Prozac (caused psychotic reaction), birth control pills (same as Paxil), Xanax (fell asleep at work) and Propanolol (I felt like a zombie walking through mud). I've tried St. John's Wort with zero results, Sam-E with zero results; wild yam extract, even a different brand of primrose oil yielded no relief; you name it, I've tried it. I had grown so despondent that it felt like there was no hope for me. I've always preferred to take natural remedies, but I want them to work. I already take Barleans Fish Oil and powdered greens, and added coconut oil recently. I eat (mostly) healthy foods and drinks. So I decided to try this primrose oil. I started taking it about 2 weeks ago and was willing to wait about a month for results if there were to be any. BANG!!! I noticed a difference within days. While I still felt irritable during PMS, it was much more manageable than before and I did not break down weeping over the slightest things. I was able to remain calm even during some stressful events (I drive a lot in my work, so you can imagine the stress!) and even when I had not had enough sleep I was still able to function well. This is truly a miracle to me. While I won't say I am cured, I will say that these esults are positive enough that I feel hopeful for the first time in a very long time. Another very nice effect is the difference it has made in my skin: my facial skin would get very tight and dry during PMS yet would still break out. I got the breakouts under control using manuka oil but still had dry skin - AND dry mouth. Since taking this primrose oil, I have not had the dry skin or dry mouth and in fact my skin's texture has improved, feels more elastic and looks dewy. I also use rosehip oil and argan oil on my face and have had excellent results. It did not help with cramps but perhaps as I continue to take the oil I will reap the benefits in that arena at a later date. With so many positive results, I must give Barleans Evening Primrose Oil the very highest rating; in fact, every product of theirs that I have used has been top-notch. I am a customer for life, especially of the primrose oil. Try it. It is everything it claim to be!

As described, fast delivery

The ONLY problem I have with Baarlean's Evening Primrose Oil softgels is that the ingredient list is invariably covered by the 1-1/2" x 3" bar code sticker. There is NO sticker covering the advertisement, but I never read those anyway. I do, however, often...well, always...refer to the ingredients and the volume of those ingredients on my supplements. The covering of the lawful disclosure of the ingredients is very important, and shouldn't be covered up! Other than that issue, like I said, I subscribe to these, and they are great!

Love this brand COLD PRESSED ( not organic)
