6-12 capsules of evening primrose oil? How much would that be? Each bottle I look at at the store has a different amount in each pill. Please help!

I've read in a reputable health magazine that borage oil is excellent for skin, so I tried it, and it worked! It said 6-8weeks of taking it before maximal reduction of itchyness is at hand;)

UBIQUINOL - new active reduced form of CoQ10

New and better home tx for eczema ?

Try this, get one soft gelcap of Ubiquinol (new active form of CoQ10), nick capsule with knife. Add few drops of vegetable oil (medium chain triglycerides (MCT) from coconut oil is good) to plam of hand, then squeeze out CoQ10 into same palm of hand. Mix with finger and apply to eczema. May need to keep very gently massaging into skin to break up any specks of CoQ10. The product tested was that by Life Extension Foundation called Super Ubiquinol CoQ10, an enhanced-absorbing form of ubiquinol.

Repeat about every other day. Quick results. Probably quick results for other too. Avoid direct sun for a few hours, as sunlight may oxidize the CoQ10

(As for the GLA, maybe bad news: taking lots of GLA may increase arachidonic acid levels, something some cancers has the machinery to do and use.)

I don't understand - aren't we getting way too much Omega-6 fatty acids?

Yes, I found this interesting. My 2 year old daughter has food allergies and suffers from eczema. She had been prescribed Elidel cream by both her primary physician and her Allergist. I am appalled to find out it is a cancer causing cream. I am desperate to find some relief for her. I will try the cod fish oil, just wondering how to add it to her diet, she is too young for a pill.

If anyone has any good advice, please email me at katfabluly@carolina.rr.com. Thanks!

You have one of the most valuable health sites on the internet. I always look at your site first when looking for answers to health problems. I would like to see more about alternative Eczema treatments as my grand-daughter has this problem. Rina
