"I am a 23 yo man with hair loss and acne and I wanted to try black seed oil as a remedy. I am only about a week into the pills and I already notice a slight difference in hair growth. I read a review that forwarned users about burping a garlic tast, and it is 100% true. For the first 3 days, every time I burped it had a peppery taste. A week in, I only get that taste of burp for about an hour after I take the pill. It has been great, I would recommend pill over liquid just for ease of taking it and taste."
