Source Naturals Magnesium Malate 1250mg Review

Source Naturals Magnesium Malate 1250mg
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Using this Mag Malate product at the rate of 6 tabs a day (2 pills 3x/day, with meals = about 800 mg.) has made a dramatic improvement in my husband's primary long-standing Raynaud's disease. He normally has ice-cold fingers and toes -- to the point of complete discoloration -- even in hot weather, and even more so when stressed or fatigued. (See the Wiki article for description and photos.) He has been taught & used relaxation/breathing techniques and can warm up his fingers that way, but it takes time and is not always convenient.
He is NOT much of a pill taker at all, but in just these two weeks of use, he has become committed to this product. His fingers are warm and a normal red color now.
This product does not cause loose stools (diarrhea) like mag citrate could at this dosage. We have now put it on auto-ship, which makes it less expensive. For two people, one bottle lasts one month (6 pills/day x 30 days = 180 pills; x two people = 360 pills.)
We'll report further if it helps with other chronic health conditions we are trying it for.

Source Naturals 5-HTP, 100mg Review

Source Naturals 5-HTP, 100mg
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've submitted this review for other bottles of 5-HTP, for two reasons:
1. I think aspects of my review are important and I hope to help as many people as possible; and
2. I actually took several different brands of 5-HTP, so my reviews reflect that. Mostly. :)
I have taken 5-HTP for insomnia and depression. Well, to combat those things. ;) At first it was quite helpful to me and I found that my moods stabilised reasonably well. However, I did find that after a while it had a propensity to making me feel a little bit manic or just . . . weird. I was sort of hyper-aware, for want of a better way to explain it. When I eased off I was able to resume taking it again after a couple of weeks and I found that a regimen of three weeks on and two weeks off seemed to work best without generating any of the milder side-effects.
My main caution came about through a very dangerous experience, which I have fortunately learnt from and not repeated. I was first taking this several years ago and I had the foolish notion of "if a little is good, a lot is better". Basically, I was taking everything under the sun for mood enhancement--St. John's Wort, 5-HTP, fish oil, you name it. If it even vaguely hinted at any pick-me-up capabilities I was downing those pills. And, typically, I was exceeding the recommended doses. I mean, hey, I'd taken supplements for most of my life and safely exceeded the recommended dosages, why should this be any different? Well, it was. In the end I tripped some invisible trigger and developed serotonin syndrome. The only reason I actually knew what was happening was because I had gone to university and studied psych and this is something I picked up in my extra-curricular research on neurochemistry. You won't hear of it from 99% of doctors, although it is a genuine disorder. They just don't know of it. It is also invariably fatal, unless you realise what it going on and stop the medication/supplementation in time. Thankfully, I was able to cease and recover, though I have had lingering effects ever since, even though the supplements are by now long gone from my system. Things have not gone quite back to normal.
Anyway, that is my caution. 5-HTP works, but it should not be combined with other medication or supplementation without some serious research first. Stay safe!

Source Naturals Hyaluronic Joint Complex Review

Source Naturals Hyaluronic Joint Complex
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The trick to making these work is to drink plenty of water throughout the day. (Hyaluronic acid works with water to create a natural gel-like substance that fills the joints and relieves pain.) Follow the directions on the bottle, drink plenty of water throughout the day and you should start to see some results within two weeks if you have joint pains from osteoarthritis.
I started looking into joint pains when I got tired of hearing all the horror stories from my extended family and their friends regarding knee pains. I finally found out that oral hyaluronic acid can be used to treat osteoarthritis pains and is more effective than the usual glucosamine-chondroitin combo.
I gave these to my mom who was skeptical of their effectiveness. They worked great and her doubt faded away quickly. The clicking sound her joints made when she walked went away. She no longer has stiffness and pain in the knee when waking up in the morning.
She also started recommending it to her friends at work. Most of whom are post-menopausal and have joint pains. Usually it's knee pain. They also are amazed so much of the pain goes away. Some of them have tried various expensive over-the-counter supplements that never gave them these kinds of results. Any pain left was treated with vitamin c, d3, magnesium citrate, and omega-3 fish oil capsules, which Amazon also sells.
Take a lower dose or consult your doctor if you have lymph edema, are taking blood pressure drugs, blood thinners, or taking anti-inflammatory medications (aspirin, Tylenol, Ibuprofen, Aleve, acetaminophen, etc.) before taking any hyaluronic acid.
Some misconceptions: Hyaluronic acid might not work on lower back pain or pain from rheumatoid arthritis since those are different conditions and are not related osteoarthritis. Research vitamin deficiency that leads to lower back pain (Methyl B-12, magnesium citrate, D3, comfrey ointment) and immune boosters for rheumatoid arthritis (D3, C, omega-3 fish oils capsules). Make sure you find info. based on the latest studies. Most of the data around the Net is based on out-dated studies with low-doses that are are usually ineffective.
For more info hyaluronic acid google: oral hyaluronic acid joints healing
UPDATE:
For lower back pain:
* Methyl B-12 Now Foods Brain B-12, 100 Lozenges / 1000mcg (Pack of 2)
* magnesium citrate or magnesium malate Source Naturals Magnesium Malate, 1250 mg, Tablets, 360 tablets
* Vitamin D3 at least 5,000 i.u. Life Extension Vitamin D3, 5000 IU (60 capsules)
* Res-Q Ointment (Comfrey Ointment) Res-Q Ointment .6 oz or Herb Pharm Comfrey Herb Pharm Comfrey 1 oz ( Twelve Pack)
For rheumatoid arthritis take immune boosters like:
* Vitamin D3 at least 5,000 i.u. Life Extension Vitamin D3, 5000 IU (60 capsules)
* Magnesium citrate or magnesium malate Source Naturals Magnesium Malate, 1250 mg, Tablets, 360 tablets
* Omega-3 fish oil at least 2,000 mg per day Carlson Laboratories - Super Omega-3, 130 softgels
Don't let the doctors give you doses that are too low:
I've been taking 5,000+ i.u. of vitamin D3 without any side effects for the past year. I get it by taking "30 Minutes of Sunshine". (Amazon does not sell it. It's at 30MinutesOfSunshine [dot] com) Others take 10,000 i.u. daily. So far, no one has died and no one has had any side effects. However, most of their rheumatoid hand pain goes away and they stop getting colds. In other words, they have great immune systems. This is why doctors want you to "be careful" with vitamins and take their dangerous drugs instead.
Doctors are still recommending 400 to 4,000 i.u. for Vit. D3. That amount is for children, not adults. It takes doctors a long time to catch up to the latest studies. They get away with it because all this info. is boring to read. The Vitamin D Council's website has up-to-date info. (VitaminDCouncil [dot] org)

Source Naturals Wellness Cough Syrup with Wild Cherry Bark, 8 Ounce (Pack of 2) Review

Source Naturals Wellness Cough Syrup with Wild Cherry Bark, 8 Ounce (Pack of 2)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Terrific results for me and anyone I gave this to try (so far I've treated 6-7 people with it), works even for smokers!
If you follow instructions (adults: 2 tsp x every 4 hrs + 10-15 min of no strong flavor in your mouth before and after intake), you should expect to stop coughing after second-third use, depending on your condition. I was coughing non-stop for almost two weeks before I stumbled upon this wonder-syrup. I found the best way is to take it before and after sleep.
If you are a smoker (one of my friends is), you may see a delay in results, but nevertheless the results are there! Another good idea is to take it along with Wellness Formula from Source Naturals. Just be careful with dosage of that product.
Would I recommend this product to my friends and family??? Are you kidding? I already did and everyone is absolutely grateful for it. Extremely good thing to have before the winter season starts. So far 100% positive results.
UPDATE (2/2/2011): After some time I noticed it's effectiveness has gone down. Not sure what to attribute this to yet, but that's the fact. Switched to also 100% natural ColdBuster warming Syrup.

Source Naturals Artichoke Extract 500mg Review

Source Naturals Artichoke Extract 500mg
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The disclaimer: I am not a doctor.
Anecdotally, I *did* drop my total cholesterol levels from 246 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) to 183 mg/dl. That's 63 points. I take 2 of the "extract 500" artichoke tablets twice a day with food (for a total of 4 daily tablets), plus I also take 1-10 milligram tablet of policosanol at the same time I take the artichoke herb (a total of 2-10 mg policosanol tablets per day). My LDL (low density cholesterol is the "bad" cholesterol) went from 144 to 99 mg/dl. My HDL (the "good" high density cholesterol) went from 81 to 66 mg/dl.
I stopped my regimen for about 4 months and my total cholesterol levels went back up, so I'm back "with the program." I do feel better. I haven't noticed any side effects, but as with any herbal product, everyone's body is different, and may react differently, so please be aware of those issues.
Results may vary. One of my friends tried the artichoke tablets, and his total cholesterol dropped 20 points, but I don't know what dosage he took. He said he is pleased with the turn-around.
One advantage, as the previous reviewer has pointed out, is that I've noticed a decrease in my tendency to constipation.

Source Naturals Phosphatidyl Serine Complex, 500mg Review

Source Naturals Phosphatidyl Serine Complex, 500mg
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I like and use other Source Naturals products, so this review is more of a cautionary note than a critique of the product itself. It is certainly not a critique of the company as I am pleased with its products generally. A couple of days after I started taking this, I began having rapid heart palpitations and a spike in blood pressure. The symptoms subsided after I discontinued using the product. To be sure, I repeated the process and the same thing happened. Before purchasing, I researched potential side effects and found nothing concerning the types of symptoms I experienced. I have since done additional research and still have found nothing concerning those symptoms. My experience may be atypical, but I wanted to caution folks about potential side effects which are not reported as a matter of course. The product (rather than the brand) may be good for what it does, but it did not work for me.

Average Reviews:

These pills are great especially for someone like me that doesn't need help staying/falling asleep often but very much so every now and then. They will knock you out and you won't wake up until the next morning but as my doctor advised me, I should only use it every once in a while because your body will diminish its own melatonin production if I use it as an everyday supplement before bed. But as a suplement itself, it does just as it is supposed to, put you to sleep like a baby! Two thumbs up!

Source Naturals - Melatonin - Orange, 5 mg, 100 sublingual tablets Review

Average Reviews:

Although the previous reviewer hated the taste, for me the peppermint version is quite refreshing. A bit like a peppermint lifesaver, although these are not candy. The sublingual usage prevents your digestive tract from breaking down the melatonin, so you get the full dose. This is sleep magic for me.

Source Naturals Wellness Formula, 240 Capsules
Average Reviews:

A friend of mine swore by these. I though she may have gotten a job with the company. Turns out she has made a believer out of more than a few people.
I have been into health foods, vitamins and supplements for a long time. I don't get excited as easily as I used to. However this is a well made formula. It has helped my family and I get over some really bad coughs this year. There is definitely something to it. It contains the usually round up of echinacea and goldenseal, but it also has many other herbs and ingredients that must be proportioned very well.
I certainly recommend these to anyone looking for an immune system boost. This is the capsule version. I think it delivers more of a punch than the tablet version. Keep in mind you do have to take 6 capsules while you only have to take 3 tablets. Also the smell is a bit strong and not that great. You can taste it more with the capsules. Otherwise this is a great supplement to take when you feel a little sickness coming on.

I have tried several different progesterone creams and this is my favorite. I love the feel of the cream and especially the rosemary scent. I've tried more expensive and well-known brands and have not had the success I have had with this one. One of the more expensive brands made me break out in a rash. So I'm not buying this because it is cheaper; it's just better! I sleep better and feel calmer.

This product does work. My son was diagnosed with mild ADHD and the doctor suggested that we put him on medication. I am fearful of the many side effects that this medication has and sought a natural approach. My son has been taking these supplements for about 2 months and I really see a difference. Not only do I see a difference, but others who know him have commented that he seems more focused and less high strung. He actually sits through an entire meal and eats. I feel that this is the way to go for us.

After reading the good reviews on this product I decided I'd give it a try. I've been taking these for a week today (3x a day instead of twice). I do not have increased energy or a curbed appetite & no weight loss (maybe too soon for that). I have even changed my diet & started exercising again but still...nothing. The only thing I have noticed is that it makes my mouth dry after a while & that I fall asleep faster. Can't say if it would make me sleep better b/c I have a newborn so I'm up all the time. Hopefully with more time I'll see more benefits...

I was diagnosed with Celiac late in life and so have major damage to my small intestines. Before I found Essential Enzymes my body wasn't able to break down and absorb the nutrients in my food very well. But from the first day I used this product I could tell the difference. I usually take 2-3 pills before eating, depending on how hard the food item is to digest. If I forget, my intestines let me know. This product is the best. And through Amazon, it's very affordable.
