Initially purchased for an omega 6 boost it has also given a boost to my prostate. Having lived with BPH for 25 years, I've tried many different supplements for varying degrees of relief. Some worked well, others, seemingly, not at all. I have been taking Waihi Bush pumpkin seed oil (10 ml / day) for 10 days, and at the same time stopped very good, but expensive, 2 a day capsules. The result was a noticeable improvement in flow/volume in the first two days, which has continued. With the expected longer term benefits of omega 6 EFA plus the very welcome improvement in prostate condition, this is a pleasant tasting cost effective addition to the diet which we can also add to salads and other cool dishes.

Beautiful nutty flavoured oil made by a lovely Nz business. High quality, tastes great, with the added benefit of shopping local. Highly recommend
