Health Sense Prostate Formula
Review of Health Sense Prostate Formula by wellness5

Advantages: no side effects, compatible with other treatments, non-invasive treatment
Disadvantages: takes time to kick in, will NOT cure the condition

= = Health Sense Prostate Formula = = After the visit to the urologist, I was scared because he was also a surgeon and said that he could 'fix' my enlarged prostate by cutting it down to size - literally ! I was already on medication (alpha blockers) but the prostate needed something else and I decided to opt for herbal supplements. I also knew that the herbs Saw palmetto, African Pygeum and Korean Ginseng were recomended by some doctors as helping ...
...started taking Health Sense Prostate Formula and after about six weeks, I noticed a definite improvement. Saw Palmetto is well known for relieving the symptoms of frequency and urgency in urination. Korean Ginseng helps reduce swelling and is regarded by some as a way of promoting good general urinary health. The African plum (that is the Pygeum ) in this herbal cocktail is regarded as a way of preventing build up of cholesterol and can even help ... Read review

BioCare Calcium Plus - very poor product
Review of BioCare Calcium Plus - With Magnesium And Vitamins A D And K by MaccMum

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: doesn't mix well in liquid, no refunds given

I bought a tub of Biocare Calcuim Plus directly from BioCare. It was expensive, but I don't mind that if I'm getting a good quality product. Unfortunately 'good' and 'quality' are not words I'd associate with this product. The instructions on the packet are to mix 1 teaspoon with some liquid. Sounds simple enough, but the trouble is, no matter how hard I tried, the grainy powder would not mix in properly, it became a soggy grainy mess and sank to ...
...to note is that although BioCare recommend 1 heaped teaspoon per day, this only provides 200mg of calcium. Now, calcium requirements vary according to age and gender. My 9 year old son for example would need about 1300mg, a younger child might only need 800mg, but either way, if you are relying on this supplement alone for calcium, you would need between 4 and 6 teaspoons per day. I contacted BioCare for advise, but even they admitted that "As we ... Read review

cnp promass
Review of CNP Pro Mass by jonboy76

Advantages: bulk up
Disadvantages: can get love handles

This is a great product and with Dorian Yates associated with the company there's no more needed to be said. This product is good value for money and actually tastes really good I recommend the strawberry flavour from personal experience. It also mixes really good with no clumping. Top tip is to put the water in the shaker first and add the protein after. Another thing is this protein caused no stomach cramps and not too much excess gas unlike some ... Read review

Review of Now Foods Echinacea by nicnncha

Advantages: help to stop colds
Disadvantages: none

Having always suffered from terrible colds, that last weeks and complete depress me, I was given a tub of echinacea by a friend. I always take vitamin c drinks, but though they have some help they never taken a cold away, just made it more bearable, so i wasnt expecting much. The echinacea themselves are a tiny little tablet, and it is suggested to take one a day. Anyway, one day im feeling abit low and i can feel my throat sore, and i think what ...
...I was fine, and whenever i have had the feelings of a cold, if i take one of these tablets everyday until i feel normal, the cold never develops, it is quite amazing actually. If you suffer from colds, my advice would be to get some of this tablets. They are very cheap to buy and have really helped me, and though i dont take these everyday as i know some do, they work a treat when my immune system is down. One last thing, the tablets taste a little ... Read review
