Researched Nutritionals Crypto-Plus - Targeted Microbial & Immune Support Formula with Red Root, Black Walnut Extract and Phospholipid Delivery for Maximum Nutrient Absorption (4 Fl Oz)

no complaints

This is a very nice supplement with ingredients that are known for their benefits that I can’t state here, but if you do some research and work with your doctor you can determine if this is a good choice for you. I have taken all of the ingredients that are in this before but they were separate instead of all together in one. This makes it so much more convenient to get the benefits of several herbs at once. Since this contains both alcohol and water that means that it is a double extraction and contains more of the beneficial properties than if these herbs were only extracted using one of those methods. That makes me feel even better about this product. It doesn’t taste bad. It just tastes like most tinctures (like alcohol with a bit of an herbal taste.) I have taken other products from this company as well with the approval of my doctor and I have been very happy with them. It does say to start out with a small amount and gradually increase to a full dose and I think that is good advice.

I am looking to try some natural herbs for my health since I am not getting better with what I am prescribed. After reading what's in this tincture I was ready to start it. All very natural and powerful herbs combined with organic cane alcohol is a great choice. It's a phospholipid tincture which should be absorbable. If you are looking for high quality ingredients this is the one. Start slowly with 1-2 drops then gradually go up. You will definitely feel a difference after a week of use. The price is a little high but health is very important and price should not factor if you are looking to get healthy and feel better. Overall great for the immune system.

Like other reviewers have already brought to light, this isn't a supplement you just take on a whim. It is paramount that one seeks out the advice of and uses under the attention of their medical team. It absolutely needs to be titrated up slowly to the full dose, in hopes that, that will ward off any issues. You can take this as-is, but it's recommended to have opened the de t ox pathways first. Our doctor advised to start with their Tri-Fortify first, and then start slowly with this. The tincture is very much like others in taste; it can be mixed into a drink to make it a bit more palatable. We are seeing improvements!

Red root is a tough top find supplement ingredient. For whatever reason it is expensive and fairly rare. When I saw this one was available I jumped all over it. I had to give it a try. So, this one is powerful in a good way. I can sense that the red root (and to a lesser extent the black walnut extract) is great for me. My immune system got a kick and there were no ill after effects. My stomach felt fine and the flavor was perfectly tolerable. I wouldn't sit around and spoon it in my mouth, but for a powerful supplement, hands down easy to ingest.

Love the product. I’m just not sure it’s the same as when I bought it from a local store… kind of tasted different

While I am somewhat familiar with black walnut, I haven’t taken it yet. Nor Lomatium, or red root. I often use herbs to treat myself. I have a huge cabinet of herbal remedies. I explored conventional medicine after I had my kids, and sadly, it didn’t help. So I started seeing naturopathic doctors. Slowly, and with the help of plant remedies and healthy food, I regained my health. I am okay with smaller companies, or naturopathic remedies, as they are often the only places to find some more advanced ingredients. I do want to highlight a couple things about this supplement in particular. On the bottle it states that it’s only available through health care professionals. This obviously isn’t true. I got it on Amazon. There is no mention of where it’s made, or the type of facility it’s made in. I went to the company’s website. They say the ingredients they use are well researched. I couldn’t find any links. It seems like it’s targeted to health care professionals, as one can look up products by ingredient. If I remember correctly, I think at the request of my naturopath at the time, I bought a different product from them. It was super expensive too. The company is located in a suburb of Santa Barbara county, California. It lists that taking the supplement may cause a herximer reaction. That is confusing and I believe, unhelpful. Lomatium is actually known to cause a rash in some people. Reading that taking this may cause Herximer reactions may make people not seek treatment if they have a bad reaction. Black walnut can also cause allergic reactions in some. Neither of these is to be taken frivolously. The tincture is in a alcohol base. It tastes fine enough. I know that I have kind of high numbers for H Plyori but I live with it okay. If I ever have a gastrointestinal flare up, I will happily use this tincture. The ingredients are strong enough that it’s best for people who are well informed of side effects and willing to start out very slowly.

Vile flavor. Had me gagging every time. The dropper is also cheap and could never administer consistent doses.
