Iherb Reviews by Author and Health Journalist

Hi, I am a freelance journalist, predominantly producing health features and treatment reviews and an author of four books, three of the self-help genre and one, Toxic Beauty, discussing the hazardous toxic chemicals used in everyday cosmetic and personal care products. I suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia and Multiple Chemical Sensitivities and have found various useful products on Iherb. I honestly don't know where I'd be without Iherb since the product prices are so reasonable and enable me to purchase supplements I wouldn't have access to in the UK. I purchase most of my natural beauty products and snacks from Iherb as they seem to offer some good organic protein snacks that aren't ludicrously high in sugar and some great organic skincare lines. I I hope my Iherb reviews give you some insight into my thoughts about the products Iherb carry.

Fine

Not great, I've had better brands that produce raw sauerkraut and it seems to have a more beneficial probiotic impact. Not so impressed sadly :(

LivOn Laboratories, Lypo-Spheric Vitamin C, 30 Packets, 0.2 fl oz (5.7 ml) Each

Useful form of vitamin C

Posted on May 16, 2012

It's said that liposomal vitamin C is easier for the body to use as we are only able to use around 10% of sources such as Ascorbic Acid. I find it useful because it doesn't irritate my gut inflammation like other forms of vitamin C and it does give a pronounced energy kick. I haven't noticed any long-term results yet, but I will keep purchasing this product.

Acure Organics, Conditioner, Moroccan Argan Oil + Argan Stem Cell, 8 fl oz

Love it!

I know I keep banging on about it, but I wrote a book on toxic chemicals in cosmetics and find it hard to get a decent shampoo and conditioner that doesn't contain lots of toxic synthetic chemicals. It's impossible to get a perfect conditioner because it will have some synthetic ingredients to do its job, but this worked well, left my hair smooth and didn't have an irritating scent. Overall I really like Acure Organics products and will continue to purchase them in the future.

Organic Excellence, Conditioner, Revitalizing Hair Therapy, Wild Mint, 16 fl oz (572 ml)

Excellent Conditioner!

Great natural product. As author of Toxic Beauty about the hazardous chemicals frequently used in cosmetics I have a vested interested in natural products and it's tough finding a good natural conditioner. None of them are perfect I can assure you, regardless of what the brand might say, but this one is pretty good and I use it a lot. It leaves my hair soft and doesn't seem to strip my scalp of all its natural sebum like mainstream and even some 'natural' brands.

Bragg, Organic, Apple Cider Vinegar, with The 'Mother', 32 fl oz (946 ml)

Natural and great for you

I use this on food and take it on its own for acid reflux and it's fantastic that it's unfiltered. It can cause a problem if you have candida but I find as long as you don't take it too often it's ok.

Does seem to have some impact and is strangely addictive.

Artisana, Cashew Butter, 16 oz (454 g)

Yummy nut butter!

I always buy Artisana products, but I have one issue, everything is too dense and solid, I like my nut butters a bit easier to spread. Please fix Artisana! Otherwise fabulously addictive!

Prince of Peace, Red Panax Ginseng Extractum, Ultra Strength, 30 Bottles, 0.34 fl oz (10 cc) Each

Quick energy boost

Posted on May 16, 2012

2 people found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

I find this ginseng vials great for a quick shot of energy as I suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia. I know sufferers are not supposed to rely on these too much as it can over-stress the adrenal glands, but when you desperately need an energy boost because you have to go somewhere it's perfect.

This does give an energy boost but I find it too expensive to buy consistently and didn't notice any drastic results.

Vega (Sequel) Naturals, Complete Whole Food Health Optimizer, Natural Flavor, 17.2 oz (489 g)

Great for energy and work outs!

It's unquestionably a good product from Vega but I have a real issue generally with 'natural' vanilla flavoring. Of course no flavorings are natural and I do wish they would use actual vanilla in these pricey products, just because they've gone to such efforts to make it otherwise very natural.

Really liked this

I am a fan of Acure Organics products. I wouldn't call it 'Radical Age Reversal' but pretty much all beauty brands are prone to exaggeration. It doesn't feel heavy on the skin and is just a decent moisturizer without all the toxic rubbish in.

Honeybee Gardens, Truly Natural Mascara, Black Magic, 0.20 fl oz (6 ml)

great mascara

I like this natural mascara, it makes my eye lashes appear significantly longer, it doesn't sting my eyes or contain loads of plasticizers and it's reasonably priced. I only use this brand of mascara now. I like Honeybee Gardens products generally.
