I wrote recently about scam advertising appearing on blogs and gave a few examples. The latest is a “miracle cure” for arthritis called Finitro Forte. Any discerning doctor who reads the claims for this substance will see at once that they are grossly misleading. Far too good to be true, but we all know that patients in pain will try anything, and can be swindled out of considerable sums of money by the unscrupulous.
However the Advertising Standards Authority have jumped on this remarkably quickly and ordered the company to stop making these unjustified claims. The company did not respond to the ASAs approaches and the ads are still appearing, at least on sites originating outside the UK.
Any patient who approaches their doctor for advice on this product should be advised of the ASA ruling, and the fact that the promotion is a scam.
the whole thing is a con they take money but never send anything
ReplyDeletehow much did the company pay you for this review?
DeleteThis has happened to me I ordered on 17th January and have had nothing - have e mailed them twice but had not reply. No phone number on site so I guess they have conned me good and proper!

ReplyDeleteHERE IN SWEDEN WE CAN JUST DRAW A LINE OVER THE WHOLE INVOICE AND MAKE TAKE A COPY TO THE POLICEDEPARTMENT IN YOUR CITY AND MAKE A FORMAL POLICE-COMPLAINT AGAINST THE COMPANY- SAYING THAT YOU DISAGREE (I DON'T KNOW THE EXACT JURIDICAL WORD FOR IT) AND THEN THE POLICE WRITES A DOCUMENT ATTACHED THAT YOU NEVER ASKED TO BE APPRACHED BY THE COMPANY, OR, IN THE OTHER CASE, THAT YOU HAVE ASKED THEH COMPANY TO DISCONTINUE THEIR DELIVERIES AND THAT IT´S AGAINST THE LAW.
DeleteWhat exactly are you disagreeing with? Is it that there is no evidence that the ingredients have any beneficial effects? If there is then please provide the evidence. Or are you disagreeing that the ASA told them to remove their misleading advertising? The link shows quite clearly that they did. This comment looks to me suspiciously like the testimonials that you find on the promotional sites, with no way of verifying authenticity.

DeleteThe ASA should take the website down if Finitro are lying (as the ASA say they are) or are they just toothless tigers (all mouth & trousers) ?
ReplyDeletethe ASA can only ask facebook to take it down,but they wont just like all the other pills cons,thats why facebook removed the tab for reporting,they get money for these ads,
Deletetoo right facebook are nothing but money grabbing grubs
DeleteThe sites are completely different now and they changed their mailing system.
ReplyDeleteIt is a company from europe so customs are different than american ones. There is a new american rep for FINITRO that answers emails and questions and he's very responsive.
NO PHONE NUMBER IN THE USA WHEN I ASKED FOR IT IN THE EMAIL BEFORE BUYING THE PRODUCT NO RESPONSE MUTE NO PHONE WATCH OUT
DeleteMy dear friend Anonymous!
DeleteI have ordered from direct the company and take about 10 days to get the order.I try it now and will see what happening
I MUST SAY that all we get on here are comments from America and one would really think that the ONLY people who matter are Americans! There are many other countries whose people are every bit as important! The FDA has nothing to do with other countries and is therefore not being heeded much.
DeleteFINITRO IS 100% MULTI-NATIONAL AND MULTI LINGUAL! IT IS BEING SOLD THROUGHOUT THE WORLD, NOT JUST IN AMERICA AND EUROPE BUT AS FAR AWAY AS CHINA.
Deleteim pretty sure they are getting fda approval in america which corrects any false claims anyway.
ReplyDeleteFor food supplements in most of the cases you don't need FDA approval. All you might get is GRAS approval (Generally Accepted As Safe), which does not mean anything anyway..
DeleteGras is better than this medication!
Deletelol
The packages were delayed. Probably stopped at customs because it's not a local company. The package took about a month but I was informed they have a new mailing system 10-14 days so we'll see
ReplyDeleteGail
DeleteYou get the order and tried it ?
Thanks,, Kent
Well, it happened to me. I bought it, and after 3 weeks no product and no answer from customer support. But it arrived at last. I don't want to try it because I don't trust them after all of these. Recently I received a mail where they told me the product takes 10-14 days to arrive. They have no phone or address in their webpage... strange...
Deletethe site FINITRO USA has no phone number they show pics of life help BUT BEWARE THE ONLY CONTACT IS BY EMAIL if nothing to hide,,,,,,why
DeleteI dont see false claims in the U.S page anymore. http://www.finitro.us/
ReplyDeleteThey are probably slow on updating the other websites
On a side not, the arthritis pills work very well for my wife. She has arthritis in her hands very bad but with the pills she has no complaints. Now she can keep on baking my cookies!
Negative: The pills didn't arrive in the time expected, but we were assured a new mailing system by whoever answers the American emails. I think he/she might answer Canadian ones as well because our sister in law in Canada recieved a similar email.
In good terms, we have been getting our packages quicker than expected in previous orders.Our last order was for 3 packages 2 weeks ago and they came last Wednesday.
Kudos to Finitro!
Although the advertisers have toned down their claims considerably what remains is still tosh, unsupportable by any evidence whatsoever. Ineresting that some testimonials are now appearing here but these companies try hard to dominate the web so that critical voices are lost.
ReplyDeleteFrank, be told, your wife gets no benefit from this crap other than as a very expensive placebo. Assuming you are not someone from finitro of course.
I recently tried finitro forte plus and after 2 days of taking pills I had noticed that it had relieved all of my shoulder/neck pain...unfortunately though, I had to stop taking them as it made me feel quite queezy and unwell...I live in Australia and I have nothing to do with finitro but in my case it really did help alleviate my usual pain
DeleteGreetings. I live in New Zealand and recently purchased Finitro Plus purely as a trial. When I purchased, the confirmation said I would receive the pills 14 August. I have received today as they said, despite NZ Customs taking a look at them at the mail centre. I'll start taking tonight and review my experience later. Kind rgds
DeleteAny "Anonymous" posting could be Finitro of course!
DeleteDr. Zorro, you "were an NHS consultant with a predominantly clinical workload...what happened? Your profile tells us your favourite books and films...it does not indicate any authority to take the line you are, UNLESS you have severe arthritis, have tried the product and received no benefit. I don't work for Finitro and I live in Australia. I must say though, the accent/inflections of some of your bloggers indicate they don't come from the countries they claim to.
DeleteI don't need "authority" to express an opinion. Nor do I need to suffer from a condition to comment. I treated thousands of patients, as a specialist, for many years without once suffering from their complaints.
DeleteThe line I take is evidence based. What's your problem?
On the website of frequently asked questions it was asked where the product was manufactured, they went round and round but never answered the question.
Deletewe received ours in australia in approx 10 days, happy with that but has anyone experienced any side affects and if so do they subside if use is continued..
DeleteDr. Zorro wrote: "I don't need "authority" to express an opinion."
DeleteIf you claim to be doctor, that means you claim authority. Too bad you hide behind somebody else's identity, and this identity by itself already hides behind a mask. Symbols do mean much!
"Nor do I need to suffer from a condition to comment."
Nobody knows more about his pains than he who suffers. It is astounding to hear a doctor - or anyone in fact - tell the opposite.
"I treated thousands of patients, as a specialist, for many years without once suffering from their complaints."
Now, that is to be in Guiness Records! Unless they could not complaint from 3 feet down under, which is common. Sorry "Doctor", that all thing does not sound credible at all.
You're doing a very poor job of putting across your point. I don't know what you're getting at with this disjointed and incomprehensible ramble. Is English not your first language. What exactly does not sound credible?
DeleteIn context of the subject, Dr Zorro, claiming someone's opinon is "disjointed" is slightly ironic!!!
DeleteI think it is disgusting that any company can advertise on the internet claiming to cure such terrible disease as Rheumatoid Arthritis. The company should not be allowed to advertise, and con vulnerable people that have the illness!!!
ReplyDeleteI have been on them for over 2 weeks have i been conned no improvement.
Deletesame claim could be made on any other pill.. xanax, zoloft .... different pills work for different people. finitro is not based on an english speaking company so they made improvements to their claims.
ReplyDeleteFinitro is Dutch - A nation incredibly proud of its ability to speak its second language - ENGLISH!
DeleteIf you know if the product is popular among Dutch people? Are any testimonials from someone who is taking the product for at least six months? Any medical reports about an improvement of patients condition? I was just about to order the product when I found this Website. Now I'm totally confused. Of course that I would like to take something that will help, but I don't wish to be coned. Thank you.
DeleteI am dutch, I never heard about Finitro Forte Plus........ Go to your doctor if you have problems!
DeleteI can only agree! this is scam and I don't trust medication that's advertising on Facebook. Pay attention to what you swallow, it might be harmful to your body!!!
DeleteIt is totally useless. Dont even think of wsting your money!
ReplyDeletetrue
DeleteI ordered moore then 3 month ago and payed moore then 2 month ago but no product. Even hard to reach them. Whar can i do
ReplyDeleteI ordered Finitro Plus, the one bottle first, and more to come later. I tried the first bottle, and decided their claims it was a "Cure" to be grossly untrue. There was a postal strike in Canada last year, and I tried to stop the subsequent orders, but after the strike they came. I tried to contact the company to stop the shipments to no avail. Now, they are threatening me if I do not pay. Any ideas how to deal with these snake oil salesman?
ReplyDeletedon't pay, tell them they can pick up their rubbish, don't fall for collection agency calls, tell them the same
Deletesimple mate..Return to sender...done
DeleteHello, my name is Bruna, well I tried to buy finitro plus on the site, but was not efutuado payment because of some problem in the website. My mother asked me to buy because they are talking a lot about it in Brazil, but I do not understand how a website exists no number to contact?! so it can be fraud. Can anyone help me and tell me something about? Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI ordered these on line and received them 10 working days later. I am taking them only 1 week. I think I feel little less pain and hoping that the product will work. If you dont try how do you know. I will try anything rather that have two knee replacements which I have been informed I need. I am 57 years of age and feel just a little too young to have this done.
ReplyDeleteI will see how it goes. I ordered 3 months supply. I was taking glocosomine, codliver oil and paracematol anyways so this product contains these ingredients plus more i.e. omega 3 etc. You would pay the same amount in the chemist for the above anyway so I dont see that this product is any more expensive than the products sold in the local chemists.
Regards
Hopefull !!!!!
You could be working for the same aholes.
Deleteemail address for Ireland is:
ReplyDeletecustomerservice-ir@finitro.com
They are very responsive and will help you with any question you might have about their product.They helped me with my queries immediately.But by email only. I do not have phone number.
Regards
Hopefull!!!!!
you have me worried now if i should get on to my credit card company and let them know if there is a scam.
ReplyDeleteAnyone with pain will try anything.
I will tune in if i ever get the order and get to try the product.
concerned ireland.
further to my earlier concern, i got the two boxes of pills and the cream the morning i was about to contact my bank. i am about to try the product and will let you know how i get on. i am also taking omega 3,6,9 so every little helps. will keep you posted.
ReplyDeleteI am not an employee of Finitro. I am a 50 yr old woman who has osteoarthritis and needs a knee replacement. Because of my age i was told to learn to manage the pain as i am too young for the op. I had laser surgery on my knee and injections to rebuild the cartlidge to no avail. i tried finitro and am on it since july this year. since then i do not take any painkillers and am back exercising. Is this a coincidence?
ReplyDeletecould you please tell me did you have any tummy problems when you began taking them also the pain seems to have got so much worse since taking them but its only been 5 days so im really hoping it is just a side affect and it will all subside soon as if this product only does a quarter of what they claim then we are very happy
DeleteIf this is a scam why do the govt let them get away with this playing with peoples life If i was sellin drugs on line i would be i jail very quick rodger
ReplyDeleteI ordered Finitro Forte Plus sometimes in October 2012, having read the email address which says: customerservice-nz@finitro.com. OK I said the Company is here in New Zealand and that wont take more than a week to deliver. After 14 days I emailed them to find out whats happening to my order. They said it will be there within 21 - 30 days. I send more email to verify what is the hold up, they then told me it's coming from the Netherlands. My suspicions skyrocketed at that point. Its now 62 days since my order was placed I have not received anything. I have asked for a refund and they said it will take 21 days to issue the refund. Has someone got the same story.
ReplyDeleteNever trust a website which doesn't have a valid contact phone number and verifiable address. It's as simple as that!!
ReplyDeleteRe Finitro - have a look at "Evidence for the efficacy of complementary and alternative medicines in the management of rheumatoid arthritis: a systematic review

Gillian L. Dowds1 and Robert J. Moots4 on behalf of the Arthritis Research UK

It would be great to get a larger sample fo people who have tried Finitro and see what thei results have been.
I have looked at Macfarlane's paper. I can only conclude that you haven't. It looks at CAM, not Finitro, and concludes no benefit. Re your second reference, I can only conlude that if you think this is evidence for efficacy in RA, then you don't know what "in vitro" means.
DeleteI am in Australia and this is an email response from Finitro that I quickly received re my concerns on the product. "Thanks for your email. There's no uniform international study to Finitro Forte Plus, but our components have been studied thoroughly. I've collected the most important studies for you concerning collagen type II, one

I placed and paid for my 2nd order of Finitro for 3 months supply on January 9, it is now February 10 and still no sign of delivery.
DeleteAm I sucked in?.................
Anonymous
Re the above, these were the questions I sent to Finitro. "You give no information re independent internationally or australian testing and evaluation of this product. Does it exist?
ReplyDeleteYou indicate the product comes from an ISO 22000 accredited european laboratory. Who and where and has the product itself been passed as safe and proven and beneficial results for oestio arthritis
well, im helped of these pills, yet thinking twice to continue for now, thanxs your supersticious minds, I will try something else ,all natural food healing instead, it seems like it works real good
ReplyDeletesaw it on face book, as in constant pain was interrested great to read sites like this will save my money and trust my Dr and hospital
ReplyDeleteSo I am not a Finitro Forte Plus employee, I purchased the product also, it took about 14 days to arrive here in Canada. So not horrible, I have seen a few people claiming its a scam but they have not even tried it, I have seen a few people who say they think they feel pain relief but have only been taking this a couple days. So here is what I plan to do. 1) after work today I am going to go to my doctor and see about getting x-rays ( I have been taking Finitro Forte Plus for now 1 and 1/2 days so my arthritus should still be pretty much the same even if this stuff works ) and once a month I will do the same. I have a twitter account and I am posting my daily feelings on the product on my Facebook. Look up Nathan Lorence ( @Daddy Lorence ) on twitter. Also you should know I am only experiencing minor pain and I am 35 years old.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your insurance and/or your doctor approving xrays every month, lol! That is NOT going to happen. Unless you are paying for it out of your pocket.

ReplyDeleteTack för alla funderingar och åsikter ni har angående Finitro forte plus 2, jag har inte den typen av problem men jag har en kompis som har bechtreds ( tror jag att det heter), det är en reaumatisk, sjukdom som sätter sej just på knälederna.
ReplyDeletePLEASE WATCH OUT - THEY ARE NOW APPEARING IN FACEBOOK LINKS. PLS CLICK HIDE THEN REPORT IT.!!
ReplyDeleteI have unforunately ordered some of this stuff. I must admit to thinking it was a 'con' before ordering. But, prior to reading this blog, was prepared to try it.
ReplyDelete2 weeks since ordering and no product.
I paid via PAYPAL and have raised a dispute. I am not sure how good PAYPAL is, but I hope they will issue me a refund.
But, this is what you may all be interested in: In the resolution centre, within PAYPAL, is gives these contact details for Finitro:

Good luck all.
Use PAYPAL for payment and no problem.
DeleteOnce I ordered a product (not finitro) for $600.00.
I didn't received it and no problem PAYPAL refunded me the money.
If you have terrible pains in your joint and nothing is helping, then use PAYPAL and try for only $127 three months FINITRO.
If it helps Good luck if not then bad luck.Go for surgery.
has anybody clinically tested the product here in the U.K, I suffer with arthritis of the neck & lower spine,
ReplyDeleteif it is a scam they should be jailed, why no tests here
to say if it is the real thing a cure or not
I bought Finitro from the Nederlands on the 20th Feb - and received my order less than 2 weeks later. I couldn't comment on their effectiveness, I bought them for my mum who has chronic back and leg pain , but she wants to show them to her own doctor before combining them with her other medication.
ReplyDeleteEat lots of fruit instead, or get new knees. Easy !!
ReplyDeletemany thanks Dr Zorro, these crooks need to be brought to book. Not the first time I have been tempted by wonder drugs that have proved to be worse than useless. If these things worked they would be available through doctors or hospitals.
ReplyDeleteDR ZORRO ,,,YOU THE MAN.THANKS FOR INFO..
ReplyDeleteThey're back on Facebook today, still touting this stuff as a cure for arthritis - "no more pain". They even talk about "greasing the joint" - by taking a pill which is glucosamine and chondroitin, plus collagen... how this is supposed to get into the joints is not explained. Nor yet how it's supposed to repair diseased tissue. Still, there's one born every minute... If this stuff worked, my doctor would prescribe it; and you can buy most of it over the counter anyway at considerably less than the £40 per 120 tablets they're asking for - I tried glucosamine and chondroitin before: laughably ineffective, except I didn't feel much like laughing.
ReplyDeleteI have to disagree about glucosamine, I have taken it for 20 years and consequently held my arthritis at bay very well. I am a dancer so this is important to me. These type of products don't work over night, you have to keep taking them every day and your symptoms gradually decrease.
Deleteok
DeleteSo, anonymous. What do you mean by "held my arthritis at bay"? If you have radiologically proven symptomatic arthritis, then it clearly hasn't. If you don't then you're talking rubbish. And lots of people have radiological evidence of quite advanced osteoarthritis, yet have virtually no symptoms, and take no medication.
DeleteHere some facts of Finitro,
ReplyDeleteFinitro used to distribute in NL some original health supplements. The owner of the original health supplement has stopped working together with Finitro because of criminal activity.
So once Finitro has lost the distribution they have copied the ingredients from the original health supplement. The ingredients of Finitro is not 100% the same as the original health supplement and misses their effect on people. It is a common practice in health supplements where 95% is a copied product of the original.
I think 'Anonymous' has multiple personality disorder.
ReplyDeleteOr they may be breeding
ReplyDeleteNO PHONE, NO ADRESS IN WEB PAGE, BE CAREFULL I THINK FINITRO FORTE IS FRAUD. POLICE CYBERNETIC SHOULD TAKE WORK ABOUT THIS. PEOPLE THAT SEND MONEY AND NO GET NOTHING SHOULD PUT LEGAL DEMAND BECAUSE THIS IS NO CORRECT. BESAIDES: IF COMPANY IS NO SERIOUS IN THEIR PERSONALITY AND SELL PROCEDURES,... HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT FINITRO FORTE IS REALY MADE OF ?
ReplyDeleteI have been taking the Finitro Forte Plus tablets twice daily (exactly as the instructions state) for two months and a week so far and have NO noticeable difference in joint pain or flexibility whatsoever. So after the end of this last box I certainly will not be getting any more. I think this could well be a wishful scam.
ReplyDeleteI started taking FFP in the hope that I could avoid a cruciate ligament operation I was supposed to have after tearing the ligament while skiing. Here in the UK we have to wait quite a while for non-essential surgery so I took FFP for 18 weeks. At the end of it my surgeon was amazed!!! Scans showed that my cruciate ligament had completely repaired itself.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, that was a complete fabrication. I made it up. See how easy it is to flood the net with bogus testimonials for rubbish products?
ReplyDeleteStill hoping
ReplyDeleteI have emailed Finitro website today to ask about stomach cramps and loss of appetite and have lost 5kg in 5 weeks since a total knee replacement 5 weeks ago. I received my order to Australia 3 weeks after ordeing but after 3 weeks no signs ither than stomach cramps and loss of interest in food

My anti-virus software blocked my computer from opening their website. They are advertising on Facebook. Their ad came in my Facebook Newsfeed. They show a degenerated knee joint and one that is restored as a result of this product. As someone needing a hip joint replacement surgery, such ads DEFINITELY get my attention and hopes up that MAYBE this product will help and I won't need the surgery. Yes, people like this PREY on those of us who suffer from joint pain. Believe me, I'd rather carry another baby to term and give birth without drugs than have joint pain. The LURE of these phony con artists is cruel and inhuman besides fraudulent and illegal.
ReplyDeleteihave been researching the product. in australia there is an address listed and also a sydney telephone no.i have asked for approval details from the relevant authorities.ill let you know.
ReplyDeleteThe product did not work full stop.Finitro (Chris Van Dijk) refused any form of refund. Think well before you part with your money.
ReplyDeleteI've been taking Finitro for 2 months now as I have OA in both knees and I'm only 48, so trying to delay invasive surgery for as long as possible. However, there has not been any improvement, my knees are the same, although I guess they could have gotten worse over the past 2 months, I won't know until I stop taking them. I've not had any noticeable side-effects since taking them.
ReplyDeleteI think its all a bit suspect with Fintro....I think it may be easier to get a cortisone injection for some relief and hope it lasts a long time
ReplyDeleteThe product is supposed to contain collagen -- even if it does, as a protein this will be digested and will not reach the joints.
ReplyDeleteI gather orders are not fulfilled anyway.
I asked my doctor about Finitro and he hadn't heard of it so he looked it up on the internet. After reading the ingredients he said it was pretty much the same stuff as the glucosamine chondroitin msm that I was already taking. I paid around $20.00 for what i have as opposed to almost $90.00 for the Finitro.
ReplyDeleteI just got 4 week supply, is it really helpful or its just a money making medicine for the manufacturers?
ReplyDeleteAre there any side effects or after effects?
Can anyone please advice me on a good medication for arthritis. I am researching for my little sister. She is 21yrs and her knees and wrists are constantly swollen from rheumatoid arthritis. Please help me. She is in Africa but I am looking at buying her good/better medication from the UK. Please help. She is always in constant pain. Thank you
ReplyDeleteRheumatoid Arthritis is a condition that requires the input of a specialist Rheumatologist and It's treatment is far more complicated than simply buying a medication. I appreciate that her circumstances might make finding effective treatment difficult, but it simply isn't possible to give such advice over the internet.
DeleteSorry but RA is not within the remit of my speciality and I can not give you any professional advice. Can I suggest you might try this site. http://www.nras.org.uk/about-ra?gclid=CMPIx_nry84CFaUV0wod-EMOwQ
DeleteRe: Arthritis pain, I would strongly recommend Prednisone, it is marvelous for controlling my pains and very cheap to buy. The only side effect I suffer is feeling hungry and eating more...:-(
DeletePrednisone (and Prednisolone) is a very potent steroid. It has serious and potentially dangerous side effects. It is used as a last resort therapy, and preferably used only for short periods. It should not be used without medical supervision.
DeleteLucy. I can not possibly comment on the medical management of someone else's patient, about whom I know nothing.
ReplyDeletei placed the order 28th July 2016 and so fare not received the delivery every time they promise oh order is lost and we will do now but no response evev after lot of e-mail i think this is frauds and we have to report to concerned authority pot catch this people.

I was about to order after seeing the add on facebook but decided to look for comments about Finitro. Really glad I checked and now would not touch this product with a 40 foot pole.
ReplyDeleteFacebook should be responsible when accepting advertising from scam companies like these.
hi peter change the word responsible to liable and facebook would drop these ads like a shot
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone, yes , it's back on Facebook, claiming to eradicate arthritis in 3 months as long as you of course, buy the special deal and pay a lot of money for a supplement. If it looks too good to be true , makes over the top claims , and is not backed by medical proof , then it is, sadly, a fraud . We are in a great new world now. Took me 10 minutes to reveal the truth, so I'll continue with my exercises, and see my knee specialist in the weeks ahead to explore stem cell as a remedy as that seems to be the only change in the medical world at this time .thanks again
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone . I've read the blogs, and checked the web to see if there is any scientific corroboration, but there is none . So, if it looks too good to be true, makes over the top claims and is unsupported, then it's probably a fake . One took me 10 minutes to uncover them . Come on Facebook , you can do better than take money like that . So , back to exercises, and a check with my knee doc , and find out about stem cell treatment. Thanks again
ReplyDeleteI have 2 comments to make about this product.
ReplyDelete1) I placed an order and was delivered to my address in Tasmania within 10 days.
Impressive!
2) I took the product as advised 2 tabs twice a day with food.
After a week I had to stop as this product gave me the WORST EVER case of gastric reflux. Had to go for the Mylanta liquid day and night to keep the stomach acid at bay.
2 days after i stopped using Finitro all is back to normal with reflux.
Bad side effects
I have osteoarthritis in my knees. I bought a 3 month supply of Finitro Forte in response to their advertising. I paid A$147. I took 4 of these solid, sharp, indigestible tablets every day for 3 months. The result? - absolutely nothing. Fimitro is a FRAUD and the con-men selling it should be in jail.
ReplyDeleteBought the three month supply too. Package never arrived.
Deletewhat could be a best medicine for our pain?
ReplyDeleteThere are as many different pains as there are people, and what will work for one will not necesarily work for another. There is no "one fits all" pain killer.
DeleteAnother Fucking SCAM
ReplyDeleteI was sucker enough to actually buy and try this shit -- I took 4 pills as recommened the first day and my body went into a gross pain in every joint -- I had mild pain in several joints before but for the next 3 days I was in harse pain till the shit finally started to exit my body then another 2 days to get rid of most all of it before I started to feel close to as good as I did before taking the crap -- I complained and they told me they only refunded if the container had not been opened -- now how in the hell are u going to try it with out opening it -- the ad said made in America --- no actually made in china and sold in America very trickey advertising -- no telling what kind of pig shit this stuff is made out of but for your own well being take my word for it and don't even think about trying it
ReplyDeleteWell here in Australia Facebook is flooded with this advertising.. promising a vertiual life of no pain for life after 18 weeks !!! Fixes everything all bar cancer n flu so it would seem .. glad I popped over here into google and see this ... bloody SCAMMING pricks Grrrrrrr.. $159 for a 3 month discount !!
