Excellent product. Easy to take in pill form.

This stopped itching on my scalpDrastic changeNo aching joints when I get up from bedI’m so impressed with the changes I noticeEspecially itching on my back and scalpLove it!!!!

Love the pills. Good for water retention.

Pro: I have been taking the black currant seed oil since October 2nd along with Standard Process Cataplex F. I have been so happy with it. My arthritis pain is gone and it has helped me where I didn't know it would is with my IBS-C. I struggled to have normal movement and ever since taking these I go every morning. Finally I fixed my main issues.Con: I didn't realize the side effects of the black currant seed oil and that is it doesn't allow clotting. If anyone is going to take this it is not recommended if you are on blood thinners (which I am not) and to stop taking it 2 weeks before a surgery.What is has caused for me is bleeding during my ovulation (this is when the blood starts to clot around your uterine wall) and I had 3 days of bleeding (Not Spotting).I am going to try and test it, I am going to reduce my intake to 1 a day and stop taking it 1 week before ovulation and start back up afterward. I am also going to try and find an alternative. I will update my review if any changes.

BLACK CURRANT SEED OIL is something Dr. Weil recommends for thinning hair. This product is useful for immune support, circulation & tissue repair, as well.Why did I choose this brand over all others??? Because this high quality nutrient dense remedy is grown on an ORGANIC family-owned farm in Wisconsin.

My sister introduced me to this product. I take it along with my glucosamine to reduce the “creekiness” of my knees. It works for me. There are other benefits as well - eye health, hypertension, etc.

For years I have suffered extreme pain due to fibrocystic breast tissue. Doctors have told me to eliminate caffeine, but that didn't help. A nutritionist recommended that I try Black Currant Seed Oil. I began taking one pill a day and within the first month I had absolutely no breast tenderness or pain whatsoever! I am now in my third month of taking this supplement and I am still pain free. I am telling all the women I know that suffer from fibrocystic breast tissue or breast tenderness and pain related to their cycle to try this product. This is one of the few supplements I've ever taken where I know without a doubt that it works!

Like another reviewer here, I had an immediate hormonal response to this supplement. Daily headaches, breast tenderness, extreme moodiness and a lot of water retention. With some supplements you need to go through that to get to the healing, but I don't know if I will.My body had this same response when I took evening primrose oil years ago. I do well with chaste berry though.I bought this for liver health and to see if it would help my skin heal better. I might try lowering my dose and see how that goes.Love standard process as a company and this just shows that supplements are not just placebos.
