"I was taking this for PMS symptoms and taking 1 pill per night really seems to make my PMS symptoms (extreme fatigue, cramps and pain) go away. I was only taking these for a couple of weeks when I noticed a difference."

Unexpected benefit,

"I began taking this to reduce PMS symptoms. It seemed to reduce breast tenderness and some cramps, but it seemed to increase the puffy lower belly feeling. That could just be my particular reaction. I found the very large pill to be surprisingly easy to swallow, and I had no problems with burps, aftertaste, or indigestion. I was not watching for improvements with nails, hair, or skin, but did notice these improvements - particularly with the elimination of dry skin and hangnails around the nails.
In addition, I noticed a completely unexpected side-effect. I've suffered for years from peeling lips (almost certainly a persistent fungus infection), but with EPO I found that the peeling became gentler, with lip skin returning to it's former moistness, softness and flexibility. It did not stop the peeling, but the skin came off without tearing the lips and making them bleed. Although no one has mentioned dry lip skin here, it would be interesting to see if others do experience an improvement in lip skin. It might sound trivial, but there is nothing attractive about dry, chapped, and often bleeding lips. Plus, being exposed to all the bacteria and other debris in the mouth, having healthy skin on the lips is one less weak point in the immune system.
Others have pointed out the relatively low GLA content of these capsules in this brand. However, I think the GLA level is sufficient to improve health. The price is excellent."
