Life Extension, Super Omega-3, EPA/DHA with Sesame Lignans & Olive Fruit Extract, 120 Softgels

Great Product

This is the best omega-3 product on the market, in my opinion. It very noticeably helps reduce my sensations of inflammation...joint pain and fatigue. The olive polyphenols are a great bonus, since they help retard oxidation of the oil as well as confer anti-oxidative benefits to the body. There is also no fishy aftertaste...not many products on the market can claim that. This is actually an excellent price for the quality, being 5-Star IFOS tested which most other popular brands are not (i.e. Natural Factors, Trader Joe's, Now Foods, etc). Rancid fish oil is pretty dangerous stuff...

Nestle Toll House, Cocoa, 8 oz (226.7 g)

Solid Product

Nestle offers a very steady, reliable cocoa powder, with a consistently good chocolate flavor. For the price, this is an excellent buy. Frankly this is a much better tasting cocoa than most of the high-end 'gourmet' cocoas (i.e. Dagoba, Scharffenberger, Green & Black's, Vahlrona, etc.). It also has a more discernible chocolate flavor than similarly priced cocoas, such as Hershey's and Ghirardelli's. This is a 'natural' cocoa as opposed to alkalized (aka 'dutched'), and as such not only provides a very good chocolate flavor but also higher levels of polyphenols, which are powerful anti-oxidants.

They don't even fill the capsules completely... I don't know what they did differently with their powder, but it doesn't smell or taste like the Jarrow or Source Naturals versions. More importantly, it did nothing for my h.pylori induced bloating (I event took up 15 capsules at a time in the end). On the other hand, using Source Naturals I found relief from bloating with just 4 capsules.

Definitely noticed faster, stronger growing nails after just one week of use. I have noticed this a number of times over the years after periods of extended interruptions of use (due to tight budgets), and then returning...so it's not my imagination.

This "vanilla" has no perceptible flavor whatsoever...even when using a couple of tablespoons in a cup of plain skim milk. It really doesn't even have any aroma either, except for the faint sweetness of the glycerine. Look elsewhere for an alcohol-free vanilla, if you actually want some flavor (I recommend La Vencedora's water extracted version).

this is sold as a cosmetics product, but is "food grade" - which is what my purpose was. It has a wonderful chocolatey aroma - better than many chocolates - that contributes a very nice, subtle chocolate flavor to any you're baking.

as someone who has gum disease, I've found that chewing these toothpicks throughout the day has enabled me bring the condition totally under control - no dentists or surgery necessary. They're especially valuable when you're out and don't have convenient access to brush your teeth after eating.

The best I've had. And I know it's powerful because I did an Omega-3 score test and my numbers are in the ideal range.

Green Rooibos has very nice flavor, sort of cross between red bush and green tea. I found it quite enjoyable.

I've found this to be a powerful detoxifier, and for someone looking for a broad blend of herbs, spices, mushrooms and other phytochemicals, this is an excellent 'all-in-one' for a very good price.

This is an excellent thickening agent that doesn't leave an undesirable aftertaste (as in the case of guar gum).
