I was disappointed that the capsules would not separate. I use them in my dogs food and they will not eat the capsules so I had to cut these which is messy.

I am returning mine. It has an awful, disgusting smell. I have consumed many other supplements, and have never noticed the smell. I’m not normally sensitive to scents but this smells fowl.

How did I get a child’s toy instead of the elderberry vitamin?????

I do not know but i thibk it doesn't help as should.

They have a little of an aftertaste. I can tolerate them by my little ones do not like them and the brand I used before they would beg for them. I got these in a pinch bc i thought I was receiving the brand I typically get and it was not in my delivery with S&S. Some of the elderberry gummies were half or 1/4 of a piece and not the whole chewable vitamin.
1
Supplement just started taking them 2 days
1
I used to purchase the liquid form but choose the tablet route as thought the product would last longer. The tablets are too big and I cannot swallow them, so ben use the product. That might be a me problem. But Im going back to the liquid form.

Go with the Deep Immune System Support Plus....much better than this one.

I felt nauseated and disoriented after taking this supplement.

Great immune booster to ward off the winter germs my toddler brings home!

I bought this item because I can not take an anti-inflammatory over the counter drug. I had hopes this would become an alternative to the OTC drug. I did not find that it really worked. In fact, reportedLY, the Perine is supposed to help with absorbtion of the curcumin. I say, save your money and eat the real tumeric or buy tumeric tablets which are cheaper. No appreciable affect noted. REALLY!

GOOD QUALITY!! WILL BUY AGAIN!! THANKS!!

It is an excellent product, highly recommended, I have really felt with the guaranteed effects of the product

Thai does not work at all. I am taking 12 pills 2 times and nothing.

Usually Vitamin D supplements are of poor quality. Not this one! I honestly love all Sports Research brand products and this is no exception. Thank you for a great product at a great price.

It provokes a droits feeling, I pee a lot now. However, my sugar level and needs has increase so much so that the day I had none, I fainted in the shower. 3 stars is only for the fast delivery
1
Buyer beware!!! I had a bottle of the tablets and the serving size was 3. This time I ordered the capsules because I thought they would be easier to swallow, and I ordered the 240 count bottle. The serving size is 6 now to get the same nutrients. SHAME ON THE COMPANY for doing that. I doubt I will buy again for that reason.

I've bought these before at Walmart, this product had a dusty container as if the pills had been shaken. I think I'll go back to Walmart

Im not noticing any difference after 2 weeks of use. Maybe its because I already did the 14 day cleanse by Dr. Tobias (which yes works)..
1
I initially bought these vitamins because they are made from natural products, and even though my doctor recommended I supplemented my Iron and Calcium consumption, I wanted to continue taking them. During my first trimester I had a lot of nausea and acid reflux and I could not get through the smell and taste of these vitamins which made my symptoms get worse.
1
Arrived as described and on time.
2
Have been ordering these for about 6 months now. Just got my latest bottle delivered and it’s only half full! Total rip off now. Will have to switch brands if this is how they come
1
I faithfully took this coupled with vitamin C for three weeks and GAINED over 10 lbs!! Adding this was the only factor that changed in my diet! I was even eating vegetarian at the time as well!! BE CAREFUL taking this!

I wanted to try these because a family member swears by Airborne products. The components, mainly a decent dose of Vitamins C and E, can't hurt. There haven't been enough studies to set a recommended daily dose of elderberry extract; we really don't know if it serves any purpose beyond flavor.They do taste good, without the bitter vitamin aftertaste that is part of some products. As with most supplements, if a person thinks they help his health, go for it.
1
There is no black currant oil in this particular product. There is only extract made from the plant. I ordered a similar product fromthis company four times that actually had black currant oil in the capsules, then this one arrived with no black currant oil. This product is not labeled correctly.

My entire household takes these as recommended on the bottle every single day. We’ve done so for at least two months now. We’ve even subscribed to receive 3 bottles a month. They taste great, and we all look forward to them as a healthy dessert after lunch. However, I can’t say that they actually do anything for immunity. We are currently all sick with the common cold-it started with one of us and gradually passed to the rest of the household over the course of a week. This is a household of 3 adults, and 2 children. We all take these, and we all still managed to catch this cold. I’ll continue to buy them because they are still healthy and the kids love them, but I can’t recommend them for building immunity to the common cold.
1
I have just finished the first bottle and can't really tell a difference. The pills had a weird plastic aftertaste and I'm not sure that's normal.

Used for years. Good price

I don't know yet if this oil is as magical as everyone says it is, but OMG it taste TERRIBLE and it smells worse. I will get back to you on its effectiveness.

I'm a toddler daycare teacher and I am always getting sick. I wished these would have helped but I have been sick twice since taking them. Maybe they just dont work for me. They taste great though

Genius mushrooms work as promised: they sharpen your memory and increase attention span. But, they have side effects. As you can find out on Google, they can cause diarrhea and nose bleeding. In my case, bleeding was in my eyes.That's despite of the fact that I was taking just one capsule a day, not three as recommended.
1
Seems like it helps slightly, not life changing for me in particular. Don't get me wrong I like it, as I feel that bloating and gasiness has been reduced with regular dosing. Just didn't do wonders for me, perhaps my gut was already doing okay.
1
They work just find the right amount too take. Had me mellow all day at work had to cut back but great product.
2
good
1
Use every winter highly recommended
2
Product arrived fast and the packaging looked good, pill was small and easy to swallow
2
I am excited to try many more of your products and see results. I am very interested in other ones but for the moment I wills tart with this ones. Thanks
2
I have 45 pills left of my first order and so far I do not really notice any real difference. I feel pretty much the same, my memory seems the same and I do not think I am learning/retaining new information any better than I usually do. It may be too soon to tell though. I am not sure how long it takes to build up in your system before you see results. I will try to update my review when i have finished the bottle. I'm wondering if the wonderful reviews were inspired by the placebo or even bandwagon effect. However, there are lots of studies showing these shrooms are good for ya in lots of different ways so I think they are still worth taking as a vitamin. Hopefully towards the end of this first bottle i will notice some positive benefits! I bought these on lightening special for 29.99, I wouldn't pay anymore than that to buy them again.
1
I had been taking these for about a year and I loved this! Then about 3 weeks ago I started having loose stools, very loose and most of the time diarrhea. Then my stomach would hurt and I would have cramps for about 2 hours. I have now stopped these, and my stools are still loose. I hope this stops soon or I am going to have to go to the doctor.
1
The package did not register as a full 16 ounces. I was disappointed.

AMAZING! Great for IMMUNITY, LUNG Function, blood sugar, bone health, MOOD, ENERGY!I’ve taken other D3 products but this makes a HUGE difference!*Easy to swallow
2
Meh. They do what they're supposed to.
1
I strongly recommend that you grab the tablet version of this supplement as it does a much better job and will prove to be a better value per dose than this product.

Not the greatest taste very bitter

I just started taking the product today however, I like how small the capsules are; very easy to swallow.
1
I love this stuff! Recommended by my doctor as part of my health maintenance routine for IBS/Diverticulosis disease and arthritis.
2
I've had other probiotics before that were more potent. However those required refrigeration. I really can't tell if this is working.

Broken Seal, bad quality control

This tastes like a cleaning product, which makes it unbearable to take daily as directed. I’ve been told black seed typically tastes like nothing. I bought two bottles. May start using it for my hair instead of ingesting it.

Causes gastric issues.I stopped taking it for a week due to the discomfort. Since I stopped taking it, everything is back to normal.

I have been taking vitamin D, 2000 IU specifically, about a year now daily. I have not been sick in 1 year. Vitamin D is very important in my opinion and I highly suggest taking daily, if not already doing so. The downside to this brand is it contains a filler that I recently learned about: maltodextrin. I will be chosen a different brand for this reason.
1
It arrived quickly and it seems of good quality. My only issue is that it does taste like what I imagine motor oil tastes like! I haven't tried any other brand to compare it to! I am not in a rush to try to compare it either.

I have used a few different mushroom products, all to help give myself energy and to have better oxygen flow. The products I have used in the past have all contained caffeine, so I was never sure if the mushrooms gave me energy or if it was the caffeine boost. The reason I decided to try Genius Mushrooms is because it did not contain caffeine. In respect to the energy I will have to say it was definitely the caffeine in other products as energy wise this product has done nothing for me, this was disappointing. On the positive side it does increase my oxygen flow. I always feel that I can breathe better when I take this before a workout and dont get that sore muscle feeling half way through from all the lactic acid build up. That is why this product was middle of the road, it really only did about 50% of what I bought it for.
1
Personally I didnt find anything useful about it. My friend who had cancer told me about it as she was also using it for pain relief fir her back and joints after chemo, she said it tast dreadfull but helps her. So I looked online and bought it , yes right enough the taste its like paraffin and I kept tasting it for a solid 2 days even after going to through 2 packs of gum. Even so if it could relieve my hip pain then a parafin taste would be ok to deal with . Well I've been taking it for over 3 weeks and haven't felt any benefits of it whatsoever . In fact I've just been in touch with my Doc for some strength painkillers . So for me it did not work , so it made it's way to the trash can along with dome other things that dont work
1
I buy this all the time. So good for you. It's not the most pleasant taste. I take it straight and I'm used to it. You might want to mix it with something.
2
My wife ordered these and received a pouch. Upon opening though, they were rotten, smelled awful, and had to toss them. Not cool for the price!

I have a pretty rare autoimmune disorder (sarcoidosis) and this supplement made me very, very ill. Talk to your doctor before using if you have any kind of serious health condition

build immune system
2
It came leaking and half empty (into my package). I was not happy with the packaging or thought that went into it.The oil itself is somewhat watery.
0
Good quality product. Yeah!
2
I only bought these because Amazon was out of the gummies we like... for the correct amount daily you end up needing to take 4 of these capsules- costing much more than taking the gummies and more of a hassle to get them in daily.
1
Nasty as hell. Taste like fuel. Haven't used it long enough to reap the benefits I just cannot get past the taste n smell
1
is what will be achieved when you have these in your house. My husband and I do not take them daily, but right when we feel something may be coming on. I work with kids, ie germ central, and these vitamins have nipped many an illness in the bud!
2
Take these the moment i feel any sinus congestion and it's gone...

Good product, but other competing products have a better texture/taste

I started taking these because I am prone to very bad canker sores in the mouth/tongue/throat area. They're extremely painful and my dad and sisters get them, too--so obviously it's genetic. I've found they can be caused by any number of things but the main culprits seem to be citric acid and sometimes popcorn/nuts. Anyway, my dad recommended Lysine to me, and I tried this particular product because it didn't have other vitamins added in (I didn't want it to conflict with my multivitamin).So far, it seems to work--I had a canker sore budding in the back of my throat, and starting this pretty much nipped it in the bud. The only downsides are--there is a strong garlic taste/smell, at least to me. I smelled it as soon as I opened the bottle, and I definitely taste something garlicky when I take them. I like garlic, but not first thing in the morning on an empty stomach!Which brings me to the other downside--these must be taken on an empty stomach. Not a huge deal except all my other medicines must be taken with a meal, so I can't take just take these with them. And it's kind of unpredictable when I'll have an empty stomach, so I have to be careful to remember taking these. I always seem to remember to take them right after I've eaten! I'm sure it's not a huge deal if you have them after eating, but I desperately want them to be effective, so I'm not taking any chances.Bottom line: worth a try if you, like me, suffer from canker sores. Just take with soda or juice (to dilute the garlic) and be prepared to take them when you haven't eaten.UPDATE: I have to stop taking these...the garlic taste makes me want to gag every time I take them! I like garlic, but not this strong. It's really disgusting. I'm going to find a brand that doesn't use "de-odorized" garlic.

Great product. Can feel it working right now.
2
These were recommended to me from a friend. During covid I wanted to build my immune system and this appeared to help. I take 3 a day , they’re easy to swallow, has no taste I usually take them on the evening .
2
I ordered it because of the price and because it is a respected brand. However, though the tablets are small they are very difficult to swallow since they are not buffered.I can take a lot of pills of all different sizes at one time. However, these little pills I have to take one at a time. Since they are not buffered, they seem like chalk dust and it gets all over my hand. I have never seen a vitamin like this before. Messy and hard to swallow since it seems to stick to my tongue.

Great item
2
This is probably the closest thing that there is to a cure for the common cold. I give it 3 stars because I can only take this combination when I'm sick. It make me jittery but I guess that's on me. I take a stand alone L-Lysine supplement at other times that agrees with me more, but I keep this around in case I have to call up the big guns.

After eradicating h pylori my gut was a mess. Have been trying many different probiotics and I must say these are the ones that seem to be the most beneficial for my gut. It is now my go to probiotics!!
2
Be careful, It has licorice which can create heart issues and severe blood pressure drops (you'll feel dizzy.lightheaded etc.)

It's ok. One bottle didn't seem to make much difference for IBS. Will try another bottle to see. Appreciate the offer of a free 2nd bottle.

I have been in the bathroom frequently throughout the day for many many years. I assumed that was normal. It’s NOT! I did do a stool test and blood test for yeast, and while neither of those tests found anything significant, my doc said it can’t hurt to take a good probiotic. Unfortunately, she said she has yet to find the holy grail of Probiotics so she said to try a few different ones and see how I feel. I’ve tried a few and there were no benefits to any of them. So I thought I’d try this one next, within about a week to 2 weeks, I noticed that not only did I lose 3lbs without even trying, but I also had decreased cravings. I found it interesting. And then I ran out of them and instead of ordering another bottle, I decided to look for a probiotic that was specifically designed for weight loss. In that short week span between running out and finding a new one, and the week after taking the new one. My cravings were off the charts and I gained 6lbs ??. I told my doc and she found it incredibly interesting, so of course she told me to go back on the Dr. Tobias deep immune, despite the fact that other brands have a higher CFU count. And so I did, and this morning, after taking this again for 3 days, I’m back down the 6lbs. I know this product isn’t marketed towards weight loss, and I know that my situation may be totally different than someone else’s, but I’ve never seen such quick results in anything I’ve ever taken. In summary, my bathroom visits are less frequent and more productive, I’ve lost weight, and I have less cravings for sweets and junk! Some may say it’s coincidence, but for me, for now, I’m a believer and I’ll continue to use it for as long as I continue to see results.

The first ingredient was fructose. Is that supposed to be bad for you right?

This product made me deathly ill -- do not use black seed oil -- the side effects far outweigh any benefits

I have been taking this for about 2 months and have not noticed any Improvement at all. It also tastes so disgusting.

Be careful of the dose you take...5,000 is a lot

Can't tell if this brand works. Still have bout 8 pills left.

I'm very into bio-hacking and nootropics and have tried quite a lot of different brands out there. This brand has hands down been my favorite. I've tried a couple other products from this brand and have yet to be disappointed. Highly recommend, will definitely be buying again
2
Thus is a great product & a great hot tea booster. Open a capsule, empty it in a cup of hot tea for a great immune booster. Loving it.

Haven't got sick
1
I notice many people are giving great reviews on this product, but the vitamins did nothing for me. I did not see that much of a change. However I will continue to take them every now and then, because I paid for them.
1
feel ok so far with this product.

I got sick a lot while taking these

It’s not my favorite.

Stopped an on coming cold, includes probiotic strains I never heard of in other products.
2
Using this as an immune supplement. Was able to receive it in a timely manner during the pandemic.
2
I didn't notice that this product contained zinc which upset me stomach so much. The flavor was also off and didn't taste like true elderberry to me.

Kills cold sores fast.
2
I used to buy the frontier brand as i only heard exceptional things about them. And when i have no complaints about the product i received last year. However, i cannot say the same anymore. The main purpose of buying these dried elderberries rather than buying the premade bottles were to Save money. But now, with the price gouging , doubling up in the cost, i will no longer be buying this from them.
0
We take them everyday and we love them and think they have really helped us out this flu season since trying I have bought more and we will continue to buy they are a huge immune supporter as we have done well on them.
2
Great price, and I'm sure these vitamins are awesome, but I received mine unusable. Evidently in transit some of my pills must have burst and leaked then solidified inside the bottle, because the whole bottle of pills was stuck together in one big clump. I tried to break them apart, but while doing so burst more. Big greasy mess.
1
Helped with my head cold, which usually materializes into a chest cold, but did not this time after I started drinking Elderberry juice. Heard about it so I thought that I might as well try it and I am glad that I did. Know others that it helped as well.
2
If I could give it a zero star rating, I would. I ordered 240 capsules. I received 180 tablets that were much darker than any other I’ve ever ordered before and it smelled horrid. I will not ever order from this supplier again.

Love this product. I take one every day to keep my immune system healthy. Great flavor too!

need 12 capsule to equal 1 tbs..need higher mg/but it beats the taste of pure oil,which by the way works thru system faster.
