My son has very bad eczema for many many years, even have gone through cell stem jab, cost me $50K and also some medication given by skin doctor to cost me $1800 a month. This new medication can stop the itch immediately but it too expensive to continue. Happen to come across this product so buy to try it. I am surprised it actually help to stop the inflammation. And his eczema improves about 75%. See the picture I attached before Black current oil and after. Give a thumb up if you find this helpful.

The black currant fruit contains high levels of polyphenols, chemical compounds that are also found in green tea, chocolate, and other berries such as blueberries. Black currant oil is extracted from black currant seeds to produce a valuable nutritional oil with 14% GLA. The omega-3, alpha-linolenic acid and the omega-6, gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), are both considered essential fatty acids. Although the body can manufacture GLA from other dietary omega-6 fatty acids, GLA can be more efficiently utilized for body functions when supplied directly through dietary sources. I noticed, my shedding slowed way down. I went from gathering a cantaloupe sized ball of hair (even twice a day, depending on how many showers) down to a fist sized amount in a matter of days within week 1. It maintained that amount for maybe another week before it reduced completely to a few strands per shower during the third week. This is the current amount I shed . Also I noticed regrowth. This began noticeably around the third week. Also I noticed that my baby’s hair was also getting thicker around this time.
I take this for the many benefits such as skin health. I have always had lousy skin and do everything to improve it. Plus the oil is rich in anthocyanin, gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), and omega 6 fatty acids to reduce inflammation, joint pain, and pain related to arthritis. I am a guitar player and my hands are working perfect at 70 years old.
It's working after experiencing general itching due to atopic dermatitis! It has no scent, easy to use, good quality, the amount of capsule is generous, the packaging is presentable, I used it while lactating, for frequency I take it once a day, I can feel the improvement of my skin. I combine it with Quercetin with Bromelain. I can feel the benefit and it's helping!
I use to take borage oil for my hormonal acne, since I have pretty much clear up now, will switch to a lower dose GLA and black currant oil fits.
Black current oil is high in antioxidants like vitamin C. It can boost your immune system and help to fight infections and viruses more effectively. Black currents are rich in omega 6 fatty acids called gamma linoleic acid. Black currents can improve skin health and benefit hair growth and eye health.
I started taking blackcurrant oil to help with occasional dry eye discomfort, and the improvement has been significant. My eyes feel much more comfortable, especially after long days staring at a computer screen. The softgels are a manageable size and I haven't experienced any fishy burps. It's a natural solution that has provided me with real, noticeable relief.
I’ve been taking NOW Foods Black Currant Oil (1,000 mg, 100 softgels) and really like how it supports my skin and joint health. The softgels are easy to swallow, and I’ve noticed my skin feels softer and more hydrated. It’s a great natural source of omega fatty acids for overall wellness.
An excellent oil for the skin and hair, relieving hot flashes after menstruation and bleeding directly through food sources. NOW® Black Currant Oil is cold-pressed and hexane-free.
