Guest guest Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 , I've seen these commercials and went to the website to see what it actually had in it. May be okay for some. But my main feeling was how sad it is that we run ourselves ragged in this country and then wonder why we would need something like this because we are so exhausted. It's like just SLOW DOWN a little, people! Like was saying in a post a little before this one -- it's the little things that are so important but one can't always see these things until something such as TD MAKES you slow down. Perhaps a little blessing here amongst the hell that TD is. And then there's the thyroid connection here, too, with the constant fatigue described in this commercial. After sadness, I thought to myself, " Have you had your thyroid levels PROPERLY evaluated lately?

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 I read the review, and frankly, why wouldn't I just go out and buy some Ginseng, the other herb (I forget what it is, but it is touted by Dr. Weil), and I do drink Green Tea (without the caffeine) once in awhile. As far as the caffeine, I drink coffee that i already know I shouldn't be drinking. Why would I make a commitment like that to something I can already purchase in separate parts? BTW, we can get the Vinpocetine from Europe, but they don't mention these side effects. OMG, I don't need my BP raised any more. These people are probably making a killing off of this! Wondering about Altovis? Here's the info... > Sorry about cross posting.. but I thought that many of you may be > interested.. so please excuse me if you get this more than once.. and if > you do... hey.. we're in a couple of sites together! > > If you've been wondering about the Altovis commercials.. stop > wondering... among other things.. they lock you into repeated orders, via > subscription, that are billed to your credit card monthly (that is > activated when you call for the 28 day freebie they show on tv... ) > > The ingredients.. well...

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 That's exactly what I was thinking.. how many folks that have not been tested.. how many folks that the docs blew off as normal.. how many folks that are being undermedicated.. are looking at that commercial and thinking that it's the answer... I keep hearing the commercial and a part of me says.. just one pill, to feel human again, for free to see? Then I saw it this afternoon and just had to go look it up... It's like CortiSlim.. that's all a bunch of bruhaha too... How many folks with thyroid issues are flocking to that one? It's so so sad.. that so many folks have to suffer, to lose their quality of life.. over ignorance and the monetary profits of companies.... sigh.. I'll stop, now.. before I work myself into a frenzy.. I'm having a rather pleasant day.... *smile* Topper () On Sat, 01 May 2004 22:32:08 -0000 " whitecap89 " writes: > , > I've seen these commercials and went to the website to see what it > actually had in it. > May be okay for some.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 Wouldn't surprise me at all.. and what they are doing is legal.. and we get grief for trying to get the real deal (natural thyroid) when we can't get a doc to give it to us either through their ignorance or our lack of money....
