Great product as long as you take it consistently, you'll never know you have a reflux issue! It completely eliminates all symptoms for me. |
-- Extremely expensive!
-- Every insurance plan I've ever had didn't cover the drug without a massive amount of hassle & cost.
-- Can take a while (a day or two) to get working in your body, then you have to not miss a dosage. |

-- Convenient
-- I'm not very hungry using this
|
-- Very, very expensive
-- Didn't do anything for blood sugars
-- Doctor kept forgetting to write script for the needle/tips
-- Pens are not recyclable so it's a lot of waste in the landfills. |

No impact!
Easy on joints so I can do it for two hours a day. |
Can't do it year round without a huge expense.
Has to be warm/hot outside to do this. |

Wish they would just come with the insulin or didn't require a script because my Doctor keeps forgetting to write the script. |

-- Great when you want OJ but cannot afford the sugars.
--Kids love the Grape soda (kid fav) and Orange soda and without the sugars parents can love it too...Diabetic or not!
--Is an easy travel along item (small little tube)
--2500 mcg of B12 so it's cheaper than shots if you need them
-- gives a great boost in energy without the sugar lows. |
--Hard to find (only found at Sam's Club so far)
--Hard to open
--Hard to mix completely, unless you can shake it vigorously.
-- only comes in the tubes, no bulk tubs so environmentally there is a lot of trash.
--Plastic tube is NOT recyclable
--Only two flavors Grape Soda and Orange Soda. |

Love it. Great Flavors with the no sugar added and some are fat free. |
It isn't sugar free in all cases. Price is high. Easy to over eat. |
