YOu cannot argue with results, this product is a cup of morning java -only betterCO Q10 for your heart? just wonderful, in addition to assisting in kidney function--I only wish it didn't have XYLITOL--but theresults are what I cannot argue with results: ugar alcohols can be identified by the commonality of “ol” at the end of their name, such as xylitol glucitol, sorbitol, maltitol, mannitol, glycerol, and lactitol. They’re not as sweet as sugar, and they do contain fewer calories, but they’re not calorie-free. So don’t get confused by the “sugar-free” label on foods containing these sweeteners. As with all foods, you need to carefully read the food labels for calorie and carbohydrate content, regardless of any claims that the food is sugar-free or low-sugar.One reason that sugar alcohols provide fewer calories than sugar is because they’re not completely absorbed into your body. Because of this, eating too many foods containing sugar alcohols can lead to abdominal gas and diarrhea. It’s also worth noting that maltitol, a commonly used sugar alcohol, spikes blood sugar almost as much as a starchy new potato. Xylitol, in comparison, does not have a great effect on your blood sugar, so from that perspective may be a better choice.So, in moderation, some sugar alcohols can be a better choice than highly refined sugar, fructose or artificial sweeteners. Of the various sugar alcohols, xylitol is one of the best. When it is pure, the potential side effects are minimal, and it actually comes with some benefits such as fighting tooth decay. All in all, I would say that xylitol is reasonably safe, and potentially even a mildly beneficial sweetener. (As a side note, xylitol is toxic to dogs and some other animals, so be sure to keep it out of reach of your family pets.)Three of the Safest Sugar-AlternativesTwo of the best sugar substitutes are from the plant kingdom: Stevia and Lo Han Guo (also spelled Luo Han Kuo). Stevia, a highly sweet herb derived from the leaf of the South American stevia plant, is sold as a supplement. It’s completely safe in its natural form and can be used to sweeten most dishes and drinks.Keep in mind that the same cannot be said for the sugar substitute Truvia, which makes use of only certain active ingredients and not the entire plant. Rebaudioside A is the agent that provides most of the sweet taste of the plant. Usually it’s the synergistic effect of all the agents in the plant that provide the overall health effect, which oftentimes includes “built-in protection” against potentially damaging effects, but what the FDA has approved as GRAS (generally recognized as safe) are just a couple of the active ingredients, including rebaudioside A used in Truvia.

I use this product and the mineral supplement as well. by themselves im not crazy about the taste but its not bad and does taste far better than most powders or liquid vitamins I've tried. now that I've found a liquid vitamin that i can use with or without blending it into a breakfast smoothie or mixing with OJ, i notice a definite difference in the way I feel (and i was using a traditional vitamin before hand) and will continue to use it every day. I appreciate that I still CAN mix these into a fruit juice or a smoothie and not change the taste considerably.I feel like i don't need caffeine nearly as much, i'm not dragging around come mid afternoon and my headaches and post-work out muscle soreness are improving/ I have recommended these products to family already after just a few weeks of use and I as a biochemist LOVE that it is 3rd party tested and certified, specifically GMP certified and that means that I can be certain that what the label says is what is actually in it and there is not some added material that shouldn't be there. Location of manufacture also makes me happy so I don't worry about the purity and relative safety of my choice vitamin and for all of that I simply cant beat the cost.

I decided to start my family on liquid minerals after listening to Dr. Joel Wallach's audio recordings, but so far it's been too expensive for us to buy his brand. This is the closest I could find that has the essential nutrients. I'm disappointed that it's missing Zinc, so that's why I'm only giving it 4 stars. The taste is very good, it's like a combination of orange and mango juices. The price is reasonable, especially with the Subscribe & Save discount. We take 1 oz per 100 pounds of body weight, so we go through it faster than the recommended time frame. I give it to my 7-year-old son as well per body weight. They make a kids formula, but I won't buy that again because it's only vitamins, not minerals. The plastic bottle is sturdy. I use a measuring shot glass for us and a medicine syringe for my son. We don't use the cap for dosage. After about a month, we have all noticed a difference with less aches and pains, drastically reduced sugar cravings, better sleep and more energy.

The taste is pretty good I thought it would have a very strong medicine taste. I originally ordered this for myself and mom 73 yr old mother then my grandmother took illl was in the hospital then later put on hospice (she stopped talking, eating and drinking ) when she returned home my mom started to put some of this in the baby food that she started eating she started eating more and more as well as drinking my mom had an "ah ha" moment she had me order another bottle. Not saying this is a miracle product but it's been well over a month and 95 soon to be 96 God willing next month grandmother is showing no signs of decline. Faith mixed with vitamins....perhaps🤔

The reason I purchased liquid vitamins is because, like most folks, I couldn't swallow all of the individual vitamins that I needed, so I didn't take my vitamins more than once or twice a week. With the good tasing (tastes like a tangerine) liquid vitamins, I take it daily, and I mix my collagen and other powdered supplements into it, add a bit of water, since the other powders make it too thick, and I slug it down. Because the dosage of each vitamin is lower than I'd prefer -- although with it being a liquid, I'm probably absorbing much more of it, based on my age, and my having poor digestion, than if I were taking a capsule -- so instead of the recommended two tablespoons of the liquid per day, I take three. Long store short, I like it, I take it, I'd recommend it, and I'll be buying it again.
