Hi Pete and sass;[ we must be on the same trac ]Either that or reading the same herb book [bg]Well I checked out that URL Pete, and I feel I must report that *I* have been having no problem with *my* monthly cycle at all.[bg]I was looking into it cause (1.) I've always heard of it being recco'd for IBS, (2.) I'm looking for a treatment to deal with a lite case of eczama, I seem to have picked up from doing some vitamin b-12.If you don't mind me asking, why were you also looking into it?sass, is it a fish oil ? An omega-3 type or something? Do you mind me asking what else you take?------------------Regards - Duane[This message has been edited by Duane (edited 01-19-99).]
