GREAT AID TO WARD OFF ONCOMING ILLNESS
Verified Purchase

We are using this when exposed to illness from grandkids, etc. It is bitter but if you want help in warding off illness, take it. We believe that it has saved us numerous times from getting the crud. We prefer a minute of bitter to a week of yucky - feeling horrible, and then sharing with others - which is NOT a good thing sometimes.

This one is a keeper!
Verified Purchase

I've used this three times now - taken at the very first sign of a cold or flu bug - and each time within a few hours it felt like my immune system was winning. I didn't take the whole course each time, just two or three sachets over a period of a day. It mixes easily in water (it's a little bit grainy) and tastes quite bitter, but not unpleasant enough to put me off using it. It's a good product and it works!

Very good gives fresh energy
Verified Purchase

This is a very good product. The bitterness is very good, because we I think we do have too less bitter constituent in our everyday meals. Bitter substances regulate digestion in many ways. They act directly in the moment when they come into contact with our tongue. Also this one is an active immune system booster in my experience.

Tastes TERRIBLE but seems to help
Verified Purchase

I've used this a few times when feeling like I'm coming down with a flu or cold and truly, this stuff tastes bad. BUT that's likely because it works and it isn't riddled with sugar or artificial sweeteners like most products. The ingredients seem good and I'd rather deal with a bad taste from this than get sick. So far it seems to work.

Taste Is So Bitter That I Cannot Give More Stars
Verified Purchase

Composition is really impressive. I think that this product has an excellent chance to do what it is supposed to do if getting cold. The taste is not good. You can drink it down but I would definitely prefer capsules or tablettes. I tried it with water. I tired it also with water and added strawberry juice. I tried it also with much sugar. Nothing helped, always very very bitter taste. Update: easiest to take with a little bit orange juice! I hope you find this review helpful, if so, please click the YES button below, thank you. You are warmly welcome to read my other product reviews too. Ejoy your iHerb journey!

It really works!
Verified Purchase

My husband and I drink this as soon as we start to feel cold/flu symptoms and feel better within a few hours! But I'm not going to sugar-coat it (just as the makers of this product didn't), the taste is TERRIBLE! If you can overlook the taste for something that actually works, buy this! But he prepared to throw it down fast and have something to chase it straight after. I could give this 5 stars if it weren't for the taste, but will definitely keep buying this .

nice to have a natural option
Verified Purchase

so far i have had one of these packets. i bought them to have on hand for when i feel a cold coming on. i like the idea of having a natural immune boost. i'll also put them in my travel bag in case i need them when i'm on a trip. it tastes almost like tea. i like that they don't add sugar to this.

It is what it is!
Verified Purchase

To boost your immune system, this little packet will kick start your day. I take it with optiMSM-powder and with some c-vitamin rich fruit, since MSM is said to work best with C-vitamin. This little MegaFoods product does not taste good, but it does kick start the day well - and I trust how my body reacts to stuff. I recommed to use it every other day, just to keep your body guessing.

does the job well
Verified Purchase

A real immune system booster that packs a punch. Highly recommended to keep within reach, when needed. Personally I don't mind its tart taste, it's a small price to pay for an effective supplement.

Not bitter for me
Verified Purchase

Not sure whether it works or not yet, but to the other comments, I did not find it overly bitter. It is bitter, but maybe like grapefruit seed, so nothing out of ordinary.
