In my recent one year commitment to better health, my doctor included this item in my health care (drug free) protocol. I saw another Adrenastim on www.ovitaminpro.com. The one prescribed for me is KR-72 and the other is KR-15. You do not need a prescription for this item. However, it is very important that you do receive counsel.
I was excited to post this review because this item was not the easiest to figure out how to use. My doctor told me to "pump" a quarter-sized amount in the morning before coffee and then just before lunch. Looking back now, It would have been a good idea if I had shown him what my interpretation of a quarter-sized pump looked like. As it turned out, I had been pumping much less than I needed the first 5 months omg). I felt like I had wasted my efforts as I did not receive the benefit like I could have had I been using the correct amount from Day 1). After increasing the pump size, I started getting hot flashes and racing thoughts long into the night. I was actually then using too much!
Figuring out what was causing these uncomfortable symptoms was an inconvenience because I had just started several new supplements and was detoxing for leaky gut syndrome. I had to experiment with the process of elimination. It was the high amount of product along with another adrenal support supplement I had been taking that caused the hot flashing and racing thoughts into the night. We finally found the right amount and schedule.
I did not mind the slight smell but I did get a rash on my arms because I was not taking turns applying to the inside of my legs. The rash went away pretty quickly.
Just last month, the hot flashes and night sweats returned. I was a pro now at knowing how my body was reacting to this product. I emailed my doctor and he told me that my body had announced that my adrenals were now 100% happy (he didn't actually say that but it was my interpretation).
I feel more confident and less anxious after using Adrenastim. If you have adrenal fatigue, you know how easily you can go from calm to anxious. I know now when I do feel the stress coming on that I can take a moment and breathe deep, get away from the stressful situation if possible and take care of myself. If I cannot get away even for a moment I know that my body will now be able to handle the adrenaline rush which used to cause me to panic and be light headed quite easily.
There is so much to love about this product! I truly appreciate the ingredients (see below). Gluten free too which is my new reality.
What I enjoy about shopping with www.OvitaminPro.com is that if my doctor is not available, I can consult with Dr. Dan http://www.ovitaminpro.com/apxadrenastimse.html.
OvitaminPro.com will be my go-to for all of the specialty supplements I need. I will never have to wait for these products to become available at my doctor's office(inconvenient) and I can save a trip(saves time + $)! I also like that a customized Autoship system can be set up for me each month. Oh and did I tell you I get money back in rewards?
Though I am not taking this product anymore, it is comforting to know that if I did need it, it would just be a phone call or an order away! Adrenastim has made my life more pleasant and www.OvitaminPro.com has been the catalyst to making my health dreams convenient and less costly!

I agreed to accept this product from Viva Labs because this product is perfect for my husband! (Yes, I supplement with a D3 with K supplement, but I need a Gluten Free Certified supplement.) What interested me in this product was the fact that the oil which is used to suspend the D3 is olive oil. Excellent! Check. The second major bonus is no soy! Check. Thirdly (why not?), Non-GMO as advertised on the Amazon.
I would have liked to see soy free and Non-GMO listed on the bottle. Just a suggestion.
Although we live in sunny South Florida and my husband and I are always in the sun, we do use sunscreen. Therefore, my doctor has advised that D3 will be one of the few supplements we will need to take for life. And so, because Viva Labs D3 is a generous 5,000 IU in each 1 softgel - this product is a no-brainer!
Also, the price is so good. There are 360 softgels in each bottle. This is a year's worth of D3 supplementation for $12.30 + shipping ($0.00 if you have Prime). You do the math!
The manufacturer also offers quantity discounts, which is great for e-tailers and brick and mortar stores. I like that this item is Made in the USA. That excites me!
I keep ours in the fridge just because any oil product has the chance to go rancid where I live. I have also learned to take this oily supplement with the fattiest meal of the day just so my body can get all of the goodness absorbed as possible. Therefore, I hand my hubby this supplement alongside his pasta or steak, or whatever I am whipping up that nite! TLC in a softgel....
I would recommend this product to anyone. My husband is happy. He has no burping or heartburn when he takes it and I feel better knowing he is taking great care of himself. Thanks Viva Labs!

The owner of Island Fresh - Mark Anderson blessed me with this oh so generous 54 fl oz organic, virgin, cold-pressed, non-gmo, unrefined coconut oil. The product arrived packed snugly. Anyone who complains that their item arrives leaking is honestly just simply lying! The seal was so tight as well as the cap that I had to get my husband to help out and open it and he struggled. This type of packaging ensures that this item is pure and untouched from any oxygen which would alter its freshness.
I love the simple approach this small company employs in regard to the labeling. I also appreciate the design of their website http://www.island-fresh.com/ . Good health does not have to be complicated!
The taste! OMG! Fresh coconuty, just a tad unctuous. I started out taking one tablespoon before bed. I have to tell you that my digestion (sparing you the details) has been better and I prefer this in place of fiber at night. Taking some oil before bedtime helps my liver out and is better than dessert! Google the benefits of coconut oil - guaranteed that your findings will be ala Bubba shrimp...
I gave this oil to my dog on a dinner plate. It was gone lickety split! And I also scooped some into a glass Ball jar. Now when she sees me pick up the jar she comes a runnin'. She thinks I am going to feed it to her, but I apply it to her skin as she tends to have dry skin. As soon as I apply it she is licking it off! The benefits are twofold.
Since I have just been diagnosed with hypothryroidism (with supplementation I dodged the "Armour Thyroid" meds bullet) I was interested in coconut oil as thyroid support as mentioned on the label.
I liked applying the oil to my hair (yummy smell), but found it was a bit too oily even after I shampooed it. However, this item is a great after shower moisturizer! I have added to a glass cosmetic jar and use it in place of expensive lotions which I have found even though gluten free, and contained wonderfully beneficial plant-based ingredients - just don't do much for my suntanned skin.
I could sing praises of Island Fresh Coconut Oil all day long long into the night. This jar has a special place in my kitchen away from heat and light. It proudly waits for me to open it and enjoy throughout the day. I will be a consumer of this product for a very long time. Thank you, Island Fresh!!!

I grew up with a garden-loving Mom. She grew lavender in our backyard. She would snip it in the warm months and then let it dry and crush it. I remember placing the fragrant buds in a glass bowl and smelling it all year long. Looking back now, this was a wonderful fragrant blessing to have in my yard! Living in Florida now, no lavender will grow here. But - - I can still enjoy it all the time via fragrant blends as well as Lavender Essential oil all by itself as it does not need a carrier oil in order to apply to your skin. This oil is my favorite!
For this product testing, I made homemade laundry detergent (email for me for the "recipe"). Since the detergent is not that smellylicious (my own word), I needed to find a natural way to scent the detergent without a residue or artificial scent. Every load of wash after filling the soap tray, I add 4 drops of Elrique Naturals Lavender Essential Oil. It is the perfect scent and better than "Mrs. Meyers" lavender soap and it costs not even pennies per load!
I make my own body products as well as household products not only to save money, but also for convenience and health. You do not need a lot of time to get organized in your laundry room or your bathroom to begin a healthier lifestyle.
Elrique Naturals has made it easy to begin saving and enjoying a healthier lifestyle. I recommend this product because it has 1 ingredient which is 100% pure lavender. I could write many blog entries about how to enjoy lavender essential oil (ala Bubba in Forest Gump)...
I may not ever successfully grow lavender in my backyard as long as I live in sunny South Florida, but I can head to my laundry room or bathroom any hour of the day and inhale it's fragrant goodness. I just don't tell anyone that I am always thrown back to my teens standing in the Jersey grass in my bare feet next to the above-ground pool when inhale this oil. Life is good! Lavender always puts a smile on my face and now a familiar fragrance in my laundry room. Find your signature "fragrance" today!

One ingredient but so many benefits! This carrier oil was a welcome addition to my health care regime. After recently battling a thyroid condition, my hair became brittle and started falling out by brushfuls for 5 days. Quite humbling situation for me - a scary situation. And so, I am in the rebuilding stages of hair care and thus was quite excited to review Jojoba Oil by Elrique Naturals.
Here is what I did for this review. I call this concoction my Health Loss Help Blend: I mixed 3 drops each of Rosemary, Cedarwood and Lavender with 2 oz. Jojoba Oil. Easy to measure in a pet rubber syringe or the handy dandy measuring shot glass I keep in my bathroom. I used an amber glass container to store my oils. Shook well. Massaged into hair and scalp for 5 minutes. Left on hair for 1 hour, then washed. I will do this 1-2 times a week because it was that tingly good and left my hair squeaky clean. The frizzy brittle hair is gone. I did trim the ends of my hair before using this oil blend.
While sitting with the oil on my head, I read a book and drank a cup of coffee. The summer here in Florida is almost gone and a cool crisp wind had just come from the East. I had a grateful moment as I inhaled the oils. I detected Rosemary as the predominant scent. Jojoba oil does not have a scent but is the perfect oil to add another essential oil to it so that it can be applied to the skin.
I devised another fun way to enjoy Elrique Naturals Jojoba Oil. I have a ton of pretty powders with mica. I am referring to cosmetic grade shimmer here. I have been buying the Burt's Bees Radiance lotion but it has gotten pricey and the company has changed hands and I just decided I am not going to buy it anymore. And so, I have added the shimmer to the Jojoba Oil and am now using it as a body shimmer oil. Fun, right? The glitter stays on longer and is subtle. This oil is anything but greasy and sinks into my skin lickety split!!
Another generous, well-priced product by Elrique Naturals! Thanks for the opportunity, HealthBizDirect!
