I had of my eye lashes falling out in clumps and at one time period for several years, I would have almost no eyelashes remaining as if I was going bald on my eyes. Was ever difficult to apply eyeliner and looked very strange. I went to the eye doctor. He even checked me for mites but could find nothing wrong.

I had of my eye lashes falling out in clumps and at one time period for several years, I would have almost no eyelashes remaining as if I was going bald on my eyes. Was ever difficult to apply eyeliner and looked very strange. I went to the eye doctor. He even checked me for mites but could find nothing wrong. Gave me antibiotic cream but that did not stop the problem.I happened on a suggestion years ago in prevention magazine that oregon grape root could this. Viola! It worked beautifully. I took this product for many years especially in the last 10 tears i took it daily with no side effects that I was aware of. But in the most recent few years, l have developed progressive, idiopathic neuropathy of the feet and legs. It is progressing but I don't have it any where else, leading one to suspect a back injury. I've been to several doctors and even a neurologist. I be had an mri of the brain and spine and X rays of the neck Finally I was put on a med like lyrica permanently. It has not helped the numbness which is especially numb on the bottoms of my feet. I recently read that it is possible that oregon grape root can be neurotoxic. I have stopped taking it. My eyelashes seem ok but I believe the progression of the neuropathy has stopped. I believe that it's possible I have done irreversible damage to the nerves in my feet and legs. I wonder if it is from taking oregon grape root for so many years.

Of course this was only one project, but it was enough to make me consider trying it, as I am allergic to numerous medications including many antibiotics.

I took one capsule of Oregon Grape and it took the bloat out of my gastrointestinal tract. Dr. Oz recommended it for that purpose and it worked. I think I only need to take one pill a day. You're supposed to start with the lowest effective dose. If any one has reflux disease, it's worth trying since it alleviated that symptom and I take one ginger capsule which is good for my stomach. ... Show Full Comment

You're supposed to start with the lowest effective dose. If any one has reflux disease, it's worth trying since it alleviated that symptom and I take one ginger capsule which is good for my stomach. Oregon grape works on the digestive tract by quieting things down and getting rid of the inflammation which is the root of all disease. I used Nature's Way which is not on the list.
