Very interesting that your hair stopped shedding. My hair is falling out in clumps at the moment (I always had problems with hair fall but since one month it is really severe). I started taking EPO (Swanson Vitamins) three weeks ago, but only 1300 mg per day. I will up my dosage to 2 caps per day and as soon as I receive a new bottle of flax seed oil I will take 3 caps of EPO, which will be 3900 mg per day then.
Ella once told me that if you take EPO (which has a lot of omega 6) you should also take flax seed oil or fish oil (omega 3) to balance the excess omega 6. I hope the shedding will decrease when I up my dosage of EPO and maybe also my boobs will grow more.
Your boobs look def. bigger in the after pictures. Thanks again for your post.
Tell you what peggy i'm tempted to up my EPO too, and you know what I can say now (since you brought it up) I actually haven't noticed loosing a lot of hair anymore too now! I used to loose clumps full whenever I brushed but now its hardly any.
Plus its grown sooo long! For me for other reasons I can probably afford to up my omegas to the 6000mg a day mark but not all EPO! The pills are quite big, I think I'd be sick taking that many a day but I tell you what once I confirm with the naturopath I'd definitely try and push the 3-4000mg mark of EPO and the rest with Fish oil. I just worry these day with contamination of the ocean etc how much crap is actually IN fish oil :s . I will however look further into that omega 6:3 ratio as at this stage all I know is that it is downright dangerous to overconsume Omega 6 if you don't try and balance it out.
