Rash

I have had a chronic, bumpy rash on my upper legs for as long as I can remember. I started taking a fish/flax/borage combo supplement three times daily, as well as an Ester C supplement. My bumpy skin disappeared in less than a week! This had been a problem for me my whole life, and suddenly it was gone! When I stopped taking the supplements, the bumps came back. I don't know if it was the combo of the Ester C and Omega oils, or just the oils, but it works and I am so happy! My skin looks more plump and healthy than it used to... hmmm, maybe fish/flax can help wrinkles fade? Will work on that and report back.
