Better But With Side Effects

I am 51 year old man and just got the bad news, I have sebboreic dermatitis, It has been 5 months and I am so depressed from all the things I have tried, including 2 doctors and prescribed meds. I have been using borage seed oil direct on my scalp and body, also using 1000 mg softgels. I notice relief right away from itching, but when I shower and wash it off I get very scaly and dry, does that mean that its working ? like drying it out and I need to continue, I am at a loss for what to do. any help out there.

I love borage oil! I used to use primarily flax seed oil or fish oil every day, but switched to borage oil about 6 months ago. I take 2 capsules a day, morning and night. It does wonders for my skin (keeps it baby soft) and I think it helps with PMS symptoms too. Fabulous supplement that I recommend to my girlfriends.

To Leesha: your article on borage oil is right on the money! I have been using borage oil in lieu of omega 3 fish oil for about 6 months now. I take 2 or 3 capsules per day. My skin doesn't break out anymore and is always soft and dewey. I love it!!!
