Natures bounty, primrose vitamins?
In regards to curvy_chick000, it sounds like she had a REALLY bad interaction that is very, VERY unusual for Evening Primrose Oil. It may have been an interaction with a drug she was taken (which I'm willing to bet), or a reaction to a medical condition, or maybe just an allergic reaction.



Evening Primrose Oil has no listed warnings on the bottle and is generally safe for the general population. It IS very good for skin health as well as women's "monthly issues" because of the Omega-6 Essential Fatty Acid (GLA).



It's possible it might help acne... but so will anything with benefits for skin health. Unfortunately, acne has several causes for it, so without knowing what's causing it, it's hard to say what will help it. After all, supplements work to help the cause of a problem, while drugs work to help the symptoms of a problem.
Reply:some herbs that are good for acne are burdock root,dandelion leaves,milk thistle,and red clover.Vitamin and mineral suppliments are good also.Tea tree oil is a natural antibotic and antiseptic.acne can be due to food allergys
Reply:primrose is not worth takeing yes it is natural but not all herbs are safe. primrose can cause major muscle relaxation, lack of appitite, fatigue, and severe memory loss. i was prescribed this two times once by an amature alternitive medicine doctor and once by an experianced alternitive medicine doctor(they told me to take it because i had severe dysmenoreahl). my memory was ruined my grades crashed, and i was soooo tired that i couldnt bring myself to eat which is realy not normal for me. my memory is still not back 100%yet. i dont know if it will be. as far as it being used for acne i am not sure but i would not risk it, it has as many side effects as a prescription drug, there are better herbal treatments for acne. you may not even have acne it may be an allergic reaction try cutting out potatoes from your food, i did this and never had any of those big breakouts agian, it took about 2-3 months to start seeing results because your body has to clean its system.(processed chesses like shredded cheese thats in those bags and comes on pizzas has potatoe starch added to it to keep it from sticking together, avoid this as well as small as it is it builds up in your system, also read the ingrediants for other foods that have potatoe starch in them you will be surprised it is in alot of things.)
