Never felt better

Date:August 9, 2007

Pros: Nutritional

Cons: Very very expensive

I used this product for two weeks as part of a protocol to rid my gut of a bacterial overgrowth that caused IBS. I never felt better while on the product. I didn't lose weight, didn't feel hungry, didn't get tired. Too soon to tell if it healed me 100%, but I'd do it again just to feel good for two weeks. It's expensive, but well worth it.

Vivonex Plus

Date:June 2, 2007

Pros: Nutritional, Goes Down Easy, Good Taste, Provides A Boost

Cons: Poor Value

Excellent for Crohn's patients, but extremely expensive to live on. Something needs to be done for Crohn's patients who need this product, but aren't wealthy.
