 DisappointedJun 27, 2010
I wanted to like this product. I really did. I heard about the health benefits of resveratrol all over the internet, so I ordered this from online since it seems to be a pretty reliable brand. The first time I took the pill, I took one pill in mid-morning with food each day. However, by the third day I woke up with a slight cough and sore throat. I stopped, and the next day my flu-like symptoms went away. I wanted to give this product the benefit of doubt, so I waited another month and tried again. Again, I felt like I was breathing like I was sick by the third morning of taking this pill. I stopped again and the symptoms went away. I tried it ONE MORE time in the past few days, and the same thing happened again. I don't know what is wrong, but maybe I have allergies to this pill? I don't think I experienced any of the appetite suppressing, metabolism boosting, and energy giving effects of the pill. Whatever the case may be, I was sorely disappointed by this product and will not order again.

 Very Pleased With This Product!Feb 22, 2010
Conflicting reviews got me nervous, so I ordered the smaller quantity (60 Vcaps), and just finished the first bottle. I'm happy with it and ordering 120 Vcaps which is an even better deal. First, it's got a high dose of resveratrol (200mg) -- contrary to what detractors claim. Second, it's got no side effect other than the darker yellow urine. (I take it before I go to bed.) Third, it's improved my vision as I had hoped for. I have had vision problems due to glaucoma. My vision is sharper and clearer now. I now need less strong prescription for daily chores including driving. Yes, it does smell kinda funny, but not unbearable. Overall, I feel better, but I don't know whether it's attributable to this product or my regular exercise.

Shipping for 2 bottles was higher than it should have beenFeb 01, 2010
Shipping was supposed to be around $2.00 for 1. I bought 2 and the combined shipping went up to $8. I e-mailed as I purchased to ask for a correction but got no response.

Seems okay, potency is fine... but the smell is awful!Jan 02, 2010
I ordered this because I've been taking a more expensive kind of resveratrol and like NOW brand vitamins so thought this would be a good alternative. I think it is a good product and I'm not sure where the person saying it is only 10 mg of trans-resveratrol is getting their info because that isn't anywhere on the bottle nor indicated from the process used to create the supplement, and I think that the research on resveratrol in mouse models is very promising and worth taking, BUT...
This stuff smells AWFUL!!! I know it is made from the Japanese knotweed which is not the most aromatic plant, but other brands I've tried from the same source didn't smell like this. It often makes me gag to take it. I think I'll spend the extra money to try to get something that doesn't make me ill to take it next time.

Company doesn't follow policy!Nov 14, 2009
Warning to all who are even thinking about purchasing this product....unless you want to just throw your money away! This company promises a RISK-FREE trial. LIE! After not noticing any difference in how I felt or how it worked, I called within the 15 day trial and sent them back the unused portion and they said, "Be assured that you will receive your money back within 10-15 business days. If you have not give us a call back." I did not. I called back and asked to speak to managers, the refund department (to no avail), anyone that could give me a different answer....and EVERY one of the representatives kept reading me the exact same phrase!!! It was soooo annoying!!! I spent my time and money on a product and company that I would not recommend to ANYONE! BUYER BEWARE!!!
