Was just looking at ads, and one extremely long one came up for this product to relieve neuropathy. They claimed Michelle O (first lady), and Tom H (actor) used the product. I thought it might be worth buying the product. However, today I looked up Barbara O'Neil who worked on creating the capsules. It appears she's not a doctor, and her work has been discredited. It's kind of disheartening, because what if big pharma is trying to silence her? I suppose she could be a quack. It's hard to know who to believe when it comes to supplements, and medications too.

I would bet a hefty amount that neither Michelle or Tom use that product.  Scam.

That product was just released this year. It's so new that there aren't enough credible reports yet to prove anything good or bad about it. But I won't be buying it just to find out. 

 

Trustpilot dot com doesn't show it listed on their site yet, it's that new.

I'm guess trustpilot checks out the validity of claims. I need to keep it in mind. Thanks @SilleeMee

There is no way Michelle Obama would lend her name for a tv ad.👎

@AuntG  The claims that MIchelle and Tom used this product are a dead giveaway.

Forgive me if I am out of place but would like to recommend so  Qigong exercises for beginners. LuChin is in her 50's and she has 5 , 10 ,15 minutes of easy moves that might help relieve some of the pain. She is on Youtube.

I like LuChin's videos. The Qigong exercises have helped me and I recommend them too. Just wish I could perform them in a lovely morning garden like she does! Woman Wink

Don't you think that if this was a miracle drug that it would  be the headlines of every news station? Wouldn't you think your doctor would be prescribing it? Think about it.
