Caelen,

I went to www.er4yt.org to the list before Learn Right. On Steve Shapiro's

food list 9 you need to use the book to figure out the password to the list)

there is a list of all the foods in alphabetical order for each blood type.

It list as reasons when the food is an avoid.

Have either of your kids run the test with s Hopkins for EFAs??? We were

told to take Evening Primrose oil from them for the DHA part of Omega 3s. My

son has a peroxisomal disorder and can't have EPAs. So maybe the DHA part is

why you've been told to take it.

For my son it helps in the mylination part of the nerves in his brain.

Hi Jen - well no we actually do not have access to all the tests here in

NZ - we don't even have a Dan Doctor! so its trial and error - I can

usually tell what my boys need by the reaction they give - and since you

just said it helps with mylination of the brain then we are on the right

track as my little one had an brain scan at 9 months and it showed that he

had delayed mylination at about a 4 month level - so when I set out before I

found these boards I was heading down the MS track as I knew I just needed

to work out how to encourage the mylination growth.

EPO does not have any DHA or a significant amount of omega 3's. It is

an omega 6 supplement.

Thanks , just worried that everyone but me knew that evening primrose

oil caused sore throats! Glad this apparently isn't so.

DH started with a sore throat/cough this afternoon so I am assuming we just

have crud moving through the family. I think I will stop the supplement for

a few days then restart to get a clearer idea of pos or negs without the

illness.

I take evening primrose. No ill effects, very benign. Not sure it does

anything however.

Evening primrose oil (EPO) is an omega 6 fatty acid and it can be very

beneficial in the right dose -- however, I wouldn't know what amount

to give a 6yr old. ??

The Life Extension website has several articles about psoriasis -- and

some do mention EPO... they even have Health Advisors that you can

call...???... dunno...just an idea.

Evening Primrose Oil for Lowering Cholesterol Evening primrose seeds contain an oil with a high concentration of compounds rarely found in plants: essential fatty acids, specifically gamma-linolenic acid. In one study, reported in The Review of Natural Products, 79 people with high cholesterol took 4 grams of Efamol every day for three months (which provides about 320 mg of GLA), and their average cholesterol level fell 31.5 percent. The suggested dose for evening primrose oil starts at 1-gram gelcaps twice or three times a day. High cholesterol requires professional care, so consult your physician about GLA.

Evening Primrose Oil for Rheumatoid Arthritis also The EFAs in EPO are also a powerful anti-inflammatory. University of Pennsylvania researchers gave 37 arthritis sufferers borage oil (which contains GLA) or a placebo, The placebo had no effect, but the herb group reported 45 percent less pain with no side effects. Other studies utilizing GLA obtained similar results. Rheumatoid arthritis requires professional care, so consult your physician about GLA.
