Dry Mouth

Posted on Nov 14, 2010

3 people found the following review helpful

Purchased at iHerb

Gave me dry mouth for the first few days. I don't know how common this is, but I confirmed through research that it does happen to some people. Start at a low dose.

Some side effects

Posted on Jan 06, 2011

Purchased at iHerb

An entire scoop is too stimulating so I mix it with water and drink it in smaller doses. Also, this seems to be causing diarrhea (I normally have chronic constipation). Seems to help moods though and supposed to be good for detoxification so I will keep taking at least until I finish the bottle.

Tastes sort of like coffee. I like that it's a standardized extract.

I experienced side effects to some of the ingredients. Possible MSM, ginkgo, licorice, b vitamins... who knows, so many ingredients... Could also be side effects from detox. Or all of the above

Bitter, but seems to work

Posted on Nov 26, 2010

Purchased at iHerb

The bitter aftertaste can last hours, but it goes away once you eat. I usually take the lozenge within 45 minutes of a meal and that works fine.

Now Foods, Acid Comfort, 90 Lozenges

Works, but..

Posted on Nov 29, 2010

Purchased at iHerb

The directions say you should take it an hour after a meal. I tried that and it didn't work because my reflux was already too bad. Now I take it at the first sign of heartburn and that helps. I also chew up fennel seeds right before I take the lozenge so it's probably a combination of things.

Made my stools too hard. I'm still giving it 5 stars since others might have the opposite problem

Great Taste

Posted on Dec 26, 2010

Purchased at iHerb

Tastes great yet still seems to have a lot of good stuff in it. I like that they tell on the label exactly how much of each ingredient they add.

Works ok

Posted on Apr 15, 2011

Purchased at iHerb

I have severe depression so it's hard to rate this. I agree that 3 capsules seems to be a good dose, but it might vary from person to person. I like this is the ONLY supplement that provides SAM-e in capsule form.

Wrong Description! Too much SUGAR!

Posted on Oct 22, 2012

Purchased at iHerb

The description on iHerb lists the sugar content as 3g per serving, but when I received the container it says there is actually 9g sugar. There is also less fiber and protein than what the iHerb description claims. I went to Nutiva's website and they have the same nutritional values listed as the container I received. However, if you look at the photo of the back of the container on iHerb it says the same thing as the product description on iHerb. I guess I'm going to have to contact Nutiva to find out which is correct. The taste isn't terrible. It actually tastes a little like sesame seeds (not sure if that's a good thing or not).

Wrong scoop size

Posted on Dec 21, 2010

Purchased at iHerb

The container says the scoop is 2 grams yet it measures a teaspoon (4.5-5.0 grams). This is confusing.

Now Foods, Psyllium Husk Fiber, Orange-Flavored, 12 oz (340 g)

Has maltodextrin and sugar!

Posted on Nov 27, 2012

Purchased at iHerb

I was looking at the nutritional breakdown of this product and plain psyllium and I realized that only 50% of the carbs are fiber whereas the plain psyllium is nearly 100% fiber. The rest is maltodextrin and sugar from the beet powder. Maltodextrin actually has a HIGHER glycemic index than sugar! Which means it's worse than sugar.
