Being a person of age I was taking an over the counter circulation supplement for many years with I think some success. The last time Andrew Less man was on HSN he was peddling his circulation and vein supplement. It was the special value of the day and I thought the price was good and I purchased the 360 count. The one thing he said that convinced me was that it did not upset your stomach. Don't you know never being sick a day in my life except for a cold here and there I had the most painful and uncomfortable stomach pains so bad that I had to go to bed and sleep it off. My diet did not change when I started to take these pills and I came to the conclusion that it was the new supplement I was taking. Needless to say I stopped taking them and they have been sitting on the shelf ever since and I went back to the over the counter brand. Anyone taking Less man's brand have any discomfort in taking them. It's much to late to return them but I am more curious to know. No I did not take them on an empty stomach.

@MrSour     I have not taken that particular supplement, but I HAVE taken many others on "recommendations"....and had the SAME reaction as you did.  Thought I was having an appendicitis...

 

Personally, I have written it off as "lessons learned".

 

I wish you the best, and hope you find the "right" product.   di

@MrSour  I tried his supplements for stomach problems. I know they help alot of people, but they just made my problems worse. Everyone is different though, and nothing can be good for all.

Have a blessed day.

I don't take that supplement. I have taken several of Lessman's supplements for years and never had a problem.

I hit send too fast and Q doesn't let me edit anymore.  

 

I wanted to add that I tried cheaper supplements when I ran out of Lessman's recently. The cheaper ones messed up my stomach.

I've ordered 2 of this products, one was the meal substitute and the other I think was for metabolism.  While the meal substitute tasted OK, it was certainly no substitute for a meal.  The other supplement made me feel uncomfortable.  Threw both out and have never ordered anything else from him.

 

So, @MrSour  you are not alone!

I have been an Andrew Lessman vitamin customer for a couple of decades now and I have never had an issue.  I haven't taken the circulation ones so I cannot attest to those.

I take many others though and I love his products.

You are definitely not alone @MrSour   A friend recommended a Lessman multi vitimin, don't remember which one, tried for 3 days and they made me feel horrible.  Stopped taking and I was fine.  They just didn't agree with me.

Years ago I tried the multiple vitamin capsules and it made me nauseous.  So I tried them again a week later with same result.  Havnen't bought any of his products since.

I take two a day of Andrew's circulation capsules (along with many more of his) and have never experienced any problems. Before I started taking them (over 10 years ago), I had restless legs at night.  This has totally eliminated that.  There are always posters who want to slam Andrew but I'm not one of them.  I love his products and plan to use them as long as he keeps making them.
