Here is the story of the remarkable evening primrose, and the uses to which the oil from its seeds can be put--one of the major ones being in the treatment of premenstrual tension. It is a story which could turn out to be one of the most fantastic in plant history. Like foxglove (digitalis), cinchona bark (quinine) and rauwolfia (reserpine) it promises to take its place in the hall of fame of plants and herbs with important medicinal properties. But, unlike these other natural products which are on the whole useful for one condition only, the oil of the evening primrose has properties which make it useful for a wide range of conditions
I have read many books on evening primrose, but Judy Graham's book is the absolute best! I have been recommending her book to my skin care clients for years; I even list it in the resource section of my book, Timeless Skin: Healthy Skin for a Lifetime. I have used and recommended her hangover cure (p. 86) for years with great results. And primrose for PMS has helped me over the years and many of my clients. Primrose is also great for acne, as she explains. This book has been an invaluable resource for me in my facial salons. Thank you Judy for writing such a timeless, essential guide about the magical evening primrose oil! Carolyn Ash carolynashskincare.com
Evening Primrose Oil - The promise of primrose

I read this book and thought it was excellent. The author discusses and explains research evidence explaining why a number of ailments occur and how EPO can help these. They include PMS, Benign Breast Disease, Heart Disease, Vascular Disorders, High Blood pressure, Obesity, Eczema, Asthma, Alleriges, Cystic Fibrosis, Hyperactive Children, Skin, Hair, Eyes, Mouth, Nails, Rheumatoid Arthritis and other Inflammatory disorders, MS, Schizophrenia, Alcoholism, Cancer. Overall, the book is written in an easy-to-read style and also includes the chemistry breakdown and dynamics of EPO in the body. It gives hope for healing where doctors and traditional medicine have left off. I personally suffer from MS symptoms and severe acne. Since reading Judy Graham's book I've started taking EPO regularly and have noticed a significant improvement in both conditions,again, where traditional medicine has not helped. Thank you Judy Graham for writing this book!
