    This is a must for me!

    Like many others, I started taking this product for improvement on my hair's thickness after watching Dr. Oz. I take 1 pill in the morning and 1 at night for a total of 1000 mg a day. Aware that it could take up to three months, I was patiently waiting for my hair to be thicker. A surprise for me was that after about a month of taking this pill everyday I noticed that my mood was a lot more balanced. I am a 34 year old female with heavy cycles, endometriosis, and strong PMS. I can get pretty mean during hormonal shifts! I have now been taking this product since 9/2012. My skin did break out initially while taking this product with cystic-like acne which was something that was hard to experience. The acne cleared up relatively fast. I kept taking it because of my mood improvements and because I had not been taking it very long so I wanted to give it a chance to work. When the 3 month mark hit, I noticed that my skin cleared and rarely blemished. My hair is much thicker and I clean up less hair in my bathroom. (I have very long black hair so it is hard to miss it when it sheds). The most important thing for me now though is the drastic improvement to my moods. I did read that it is a treatment for prostaglandin deficiency which contributes to PMS and moodiness. I would recommend this for hair and skin improvement, and hormonal imbalance. I subscribe and have it shipped automatically which works very well.

    Excellent especially in dry winter

    Began using this while living in Alaska. This formula greatly helps with stressed skin that happens in such a dehydrating environment .
