Take 3 Tablespoons of flax seed oil with 3 softgels of black current oil each morning and night. Evaluate migraine severity after 3 months. Severity of migraines continue to recede with length of use. Both the black current seed oil and the flax seed oil need to be taken to get results. In my experience, stopping this regimen will result in the return of migraines in 3 to 6 months.
