I read the thread that had to do with back pain and depression. I hope my solution can help: product of the century that has changed my life and I would like to share it with all who read this---Protandim--look it up. I was a skeptic at first but it has changed my life and a ton of people in my family and friend's lives. I was born with bunions and on my right foot it has hurt since I was about 15. I just thought that my right one was larger than my left--not true--Protandim healed it(my tendon was holding it in a bad place-it healed it. It tingled for a bout a week! I took it for 30 days and it is completely on the mend and I don't feel anything but normal and relief from pain. I have TMJ--reduced the inflamation tremendously! I rolled my ankle three years ago, it didn't heal properly. Since taking Protandim it healed back correctly. It is crazy people!! I was like okay...when my Mormon sister told me about it. I was a huge skeptic and just agreed to try it-quite obsessed now with it. I could tell you countless stories of people with aliments that it has helped. arthritis-diabetes- back injuries-(my brother in law was a pro golfer and had to stop golfing due to his injury, Protandim has almost completely healed it, he got the injury about ten years ago.) They are all selling it- I wanted to share it with you guys--not to make money off of it but because I read the book the secret and believe in Karma. My sister's best friend has been on antidepressants since she was 15, she is now 30 something and since taking Protandim she weaned herself off of them and no longer takes her medicine. It has changed my life, so try it. I have only noticed positive side effects like more energy. It's like 40 dollars a month and you can order it off their website. It reduces your oxidative stress in your cells that cause aging. I have never ever felt better. If you don't have your health you don't have anything. You'll never know until you try it. I know how debilitating pain can be. I stopped running due to my toe and ankle. It has given me a fresh outlook on my life and possibilities. Has anyone else heard of it or taken it?

I'm not benefitting from it. People give their advice all the time. The thread was closed.

I could have just kept it to myself but it has changed my life so why not share something that could help.

medicine has effects and usually is just a cover up. It's not for everyone(obviously) and if you don't try it you'll never know. It's not my life- it's yours, so it's all up to you. My dad took it and has had high high blood pressure and it dropped 20 points by doing nothing different. Good luck everyone. Don't believe everything you read on google:) it's helped me and many people I know personally.

I know what I use to have...and it's not the placebo effect...at all- I have dealt with pain for years and years. It actually does work and it is going to be huge and everyone is going to eat their little words while I am living 20 years longer. It is a dietary supplement that simply repairs your cells..it's a simple concept people...don't make it complicated. My mom has been in a wheelchair since I was 12..I am now 25..she has MS...and she can feel her feet again for the fist time in many years where her copaxone and other "doctor remedies" failed to repair her. She has taken Protandim for about two months. It is just the beginning. Go ahead and rip on it, I am use to it...not being Mormon was a huge debate. I only defend this because it has changed my life-muscle has memory and so does each cell of how nature intended it to be--for best function(that's how I look at it). I was a skeptic too...I didn't think much of it till I was healed...and it took me a while to give credit where credit was due. My bunion effing hurt...and my ankle...and TMJ..very painful...look it up if you don't know about TMJ!! ouch!! I just want to help---I am not making money off of this..puuhhleaase

Whatever you think it did -- it didn't. Go peddle your snake oil elsewhere.

Placebos work.

So something that works is... wrong.

For anyone interested here is an article on the placebo effect

It may have worked for you... But a 5 minute search on Google for "protandim scams" found plenty of sites that show that this is pretty much a scam (heck, just searching for protandim alone found plenty of information on it, you just have to sort though the obvious marketing material, hint, they all say the same thing).

Just few of the many sites:
http://quackfiles.blogspot.com/2005/07/protandim-claims-debunked.html
http://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org/index.php/protandim-another-kind-of-antioxidant/
http://www.lazymanandmoney.com/lifevantage-protandim-scam/ (which even goes into the company.)

Something that cures bunions, inflammations, twisted ankles (ones that had already healed), diabetes (I'm assuming that's what diebetis is), arthritis, and depression? Sounds way to good to be true, especially for a handful of herbs that can be purchased on their own much cheaper and have shown none of these affects.

I prefer medicine that works...

There's no such thing as a panacea for all ills. Nothing cures bunions and herniated disks and the heebie jeebies.

The magic is in the proprietary blend!

Sure you can get all the ingredients at Walmart, but you'll never get the blend quite right and you'll never get the amazing benefits. Tea tree oil also may cure herpies* but only if you buy it from Melaleuca.

And disgusting.

If I wanted this kind of information, I wouldn't have taken DH to about 2 dozen doctors for their opinions on pain, which are apparently inferior to the OP's.

If you take it with OSEA water, it is guaranteed to lighten your wallet even more.
