I'm a 40yr female, and may be going thru perimenopause, but regardless, it started working with the very first dose! The combination of Flax oil, Evening Primrose Oil, Rosemary and Soy is an incredible combination for managing PMS, Peri/Pre/Menopause, Sore breasts, Cramps, Headaches, Migraines, unstable mind, moods, even increases libido!! I take mine mixed with hot/spicy V8 juice and it works very well with that. But will try it with orange juice,for variety, too. I feel more 'solid' in a good way, emotionally, mentally and even moods. Also much less PMS, better sleep, no cramps, etc. I'm gonna keep taking this, just wish it came in a larger bottle for a cheaper price. One 16 oz bottle only lasts about two weeks, taking 1 Tbs per day. But it is SOOOO WORTH it! Capsules aren't worth it due to having to take more of them and they're pricier that way. Thank YOU, Barlean's, make it in a larger bottle!:)

This is a really good product if you can stomach the taste. I mix it with my OJ so it helps the taste. My nails are so much stronger, my hair feels healthier, and I am not as tired as I used to be. I would recommend this product.

I have been using this product for years and believe that for "women of a certain age" it is a real plus. The taste and consistency are yucky, but so many things in life that are good for us may not be much better than yucky anyway! The surprising effect of this was that I did not know that evening primrose oil reduces migraines - that is until I was taking this product and realized that the severity of my migraines decreased. I read the contents of the bottle (I had been primarily taking it because I'd learned that flax seed oil is very good for us) and realized that the pain of my migraines had decreased shortly after taking this product. I highly recommend this - just ignore the consistency and the taste. It comes in a pill form, but you need to take a lot which is more expensive, so I just put this stuff in a spoon and then drink OJ.
