Best I know of — have used it for years and take it everywhere

Love the chocolate flavor and it’s easy to blend

This works so quickly and provides an extremely nice calming feeling.

Curaphen

I already submitted a review!!! I even received a thank you note from your owner/president.

I highly recommend this product because it has helped me so much with IBS over the years (I use it whenever I have a flair up) but I use it because it was recommended to me by a medical professional. If you're having digestive problems see someone beyond your gastroenterologist for guidance. This product is not meant to fix the issue but it can help in recovery.

Take this to ward of Covid Spike toxicities.

I discovered that I was allergic to nickel when I was a teen. What I didn't realize is that there's a lot of nickel in foods, which I ate often for pleasure and fiber. Nuts, seeds, flax, legumes, kale, etc are out now that I'm older. I was looking for a non-nickel fiber supplement to help make up the difference in fiber that I can no longer get from foods. Clearfiber works quite well, has a neutral taste and blends well.

It contains medicine that works right away on migraines.....

Works great for dry mouth.

I take one each morning. I can feel the difference in my energy level.

I’ve been taking Boneup for a few years. I have osteoporosis which has not progressed based on scans.

After decades of undiagnosed dysbiosis, taking this product for only a hand of days fully reset my gut biome. I’d forgotten was normal was like!!!

I have been taking Glucosamine for several years and combined with MSM for a few years. This particular form is new for me. My arthritic knee has remained okay—no pain—since I began using glucosamine in its various forms.
Treat wonderful! Thank you.
