Balance of Nature Fruits and Veggies Supplements - Whole Fruit and Vegetable Ingredients for Women, Men, and Kids - 90 Fruit Capsules, 90 Veggie Capsules - 1 Set

I have heard about these for several years now and finally decided to give them a try to try and start making improvements in my diet. The ingredients are great, a clean healthy supplement that I know I can trust. So far they have caused no stomach upset, but I do recommend eating something before or just after you take them to help avoid that possible issue if you have a sensitive stomach.

After seeing hundreds of Balance of Nature commercials, I was curious if it was better than the NATROL JUICEFESTIV Fruit and Vegetable supplements that I have been buying from AMAZON for several months. I had been hesitant to buy from Balance of Nature direct as you have to sign up for subscription sales and there is a $25+ new member fee. I was thrilled to see I could be the product one-time from Amazon with no new member fee. The good, it's everything it claims to be. Pleasant tasting, with vibrant colors, I am sure that this higher quality than NATROL. I also had better quality bowel movements and slightly better sleep compared to NATROL. The bad, this product is astonishingly expensive. Running over $90 per month, versus approximately $15 for NATROL JUICEFESTIV. Is it better than NATROL, a resounding yes. Is it worth six-times more than NATROL, in my opinion no. I went back to NATROL after taking for thirty-days. Great product, but, I can't justify the price difference for the slightly better results.

I can tell a difference when I take these. I generally feel better and I am less hungry. I don’t know why, but I am. I do have to say they are very hard to swallow, and normally I don’t have any problem taking pills. But the capsule container on these is pretty sticky. It gets stuck about halfway down my esophagus, and it burns. I think it’s because it’s made of cellulose and not other products that are used in less natural vitamins. I have tried to use a product called pill glide, and it helps somewhat, but the vitamins work so well for me, that I am willing to keep trying to take them. I also think they’re a little pricey, but when you see the video on how they are made, and how they truly are natural and made in the United States, that explains the price. It just costs more to make things here, but you usually end up with a superior product. I like them. I want to keep taking them. But I have to find a way to get them down without ending up with heartburn. Updated September 1, 2023: I found a way to make them easier to swallow. I take them with a big gulp of water, and then follow up with hot coffee or hot tea. The hot drink makes them slide down right away. I still think these are helping for energy, and I’ve even gotten another family member to try them, and he says they work for him as well.

If you are waking up feeling as tired as you were when you went to sleep. Ballance of nature could be exactly what you need. I started taking it about a month ago and i noticed the difference. On the day after i started i woke up ready for the day. I didn't dread what the day was going to bring but felt rested and ready. Try it... you won't regret it!

I like the product and feel the benefits; however, you never know where your product is going to be coming from. It's very expensive and then getting two bottles where the manufacturing dates were both a year old...only for them to respond that the product shelf life is two years after the manufacturing date??? This is disappointing to me.
