READ MORELet customers speak for us
from 598 reviewsI have been using blood sugar support for five years and found it really helpful and keeping my A1c steady unfortunately I was very disappointed to find they discontinued it, but this is a reasonable replacement
I have used this product before, and after a six-month pause, I'm using it again. The results are excellent; in fact, a friend asked if I had "work done." Facial lines are softer and skin is plumper. I'm seventy-three years old.
I need no sugar gummies.
I am diabetic.
Doesn’t take away the knee pain completely, but makes it easier to live with.
Peppermint Oil
Awesome
Good product!!!!
They are delicious and fresh. Helps the mind , body, and soul
This probiotic helps keep my gut bacteria in check and my immune system in good condition.
Great service.
Just started taking this mag glycinate. Hoping it will help with sleep issues.
Highly recommended by my acupuncturist! It is a powerhouse!
I started useing this at first sign of tingling like others have mentioned and I reapply every two hours throughout the day . Its strong stuff just a thin layer needed. I'm on day 3 of use and my cold sore is 1/3 the size it normally gets . And no pain or irritation . I feel like it's starting to heal up already . Recommended to keep useing it even past the time you think it's going away. I really like this but have to eat tic tacos cause leaves strong taste in mouth . It's totally worth it !!!
I stated taking Nattokinase as part of a precautionary Spike protein detox. Since this is a preventative for me, not a corrective hard to tell if it’s working. But, it’s also supposed to help with Cardiovascular function.
it's very helpful to treat my allergies and sinus indeed. Works well!!! Thank you!!
