Sorry to hear that the oil did not help you. It does not work instantaneously by the way. You should keep a record of the dosage you took, how long before you felt any effects, if any, and how long it lasted.
Thanks, I had another big disappointment on Sunday when after over two months of being unable to make the effort to drag myself to church I at last went. As I came into the choir room three ladies were talking about this "miracle substance" from the same store where I bought mine and to "get the gel and not the cream." At the store I found they have
two kinds of gel. One was $15.00 an ounce and the other was $42.00 an ounce. As they take cash only and I had only $17.00 on me, naturally I went for the $15.00 stuff. Got home, put it on to soak in for awhile and I would say less effect than the cream. An arthritis cream I picked up at Walmart did as much or more good and
none of them came
near removing the pain! Tomorrow I have a doctor appointment at which I am going to request referral to a rheumatologist and discuss the CBD products including the one my cousin is selling.
My sister and niece want me to do a sugar detox. Except for brief periods between 1972-1973 and 1976-1977, I have
never been off sugar since conscious memory, around 55 years. The only sugar free product I take is lozenges as I have to take something for dry throat and Vitamin C drops and other products were disintegrating my teeth. I wouldn't have a clue of how to go about a sugar detox except to check into some camp and have heard
horrible things about sugar substitutes! Not only are they difficult to use, nasty-tasting, and cancer-causing, but one need only read a few of the nearly 7,000 Amazon reviews of the Haribo Goldbears 5-pound bag of sugar-free Gummy Bears rife with such headings as "Hell Holds No Surprises For Me Anymore," found here.
Hell Holds No Surprises For Me Anymore... You guys should love these reviews which are hilarious in a really sick and gross way, with some saying the reviews must be much better than the product. According to some reviews, these are a knockoff and not true Haribo bears, which I hope is true as Haribo otherwise ought to be punished for peddling this poison.
After scrolling through hundreds of these reviews, several things are obvious, some people are receiving genuine Haribo Gummy Bears, some are receiving knockoffs, and those made in Brazil are particularly to be reviled and feared. There are many great five-star reviews, but it's apparent that the buyers don't know what they are buying, the sellers don't care what they are shipping, and there is no recourse for receiving the wrong thing or a defective product. Some people received good products more than once and on reordering received foul-smelling trash. Some people ordered sugar-free and received products containing sugar, others were disappointed that the products weren't Kosher. One guy told a wonderful story (which I couldn't find this time--the reviews I read before may be on a different product listing--) about his bad experience and then doctoring some of the evil bears with hot sauce as revenge on people at his gym and listening to their anguish while expelling "the last food they would ever steal from me." A distressing number of people wanted to try similar revenge, but the only ones who succeeded were those who already knew they had a bad batch. Others complained that their "prank was ruined" and they "wasted their money" revenge buying only to receive a perfectly good product.
The first time I read these reviews was at a friend's. It didn't help that I had a cough and every time I laughed would send me into coughing and between laughing and coughing my eyes watered so it took the longest to read a review. One guy talked about eight trips to the restroom at work, he was asked if he wanted to go home and said no as work was closer to the hospital than his home was. My friend's favorite was of the accidental revenge by a female patrol officer. When this officer ate a few Gummy Bears and realized a big one was a-brewin', she raced to a fast-food restaurant with sirens wailing and rushed into the restroom. Eyes of all customers were on her on the way out, expecting her to have apprehended one of America's Most Wanted, and she said, "False alarm." The accidental revenge came because she left the bag in the patrol car and the next officers ate the rest the next day!
The one above and these nine are the best ten out of scrolling through over 1,000 of the nearly 7,000 reviews just on one product listing.
This one has a Stephen King reference along with other horror films:
My life is ruined
Beware the Bear:
Beware the Bear

I was on the cusp of a three day weekend and had the perfect breakfast in a paper bag headed to work - ...
Laxatives should not be abused (8th grade class disaster):
"Laxatives should not be abused"

Several reviewers claimed to have experienced God, this one says He left:
God Left.
One of several either disowned by family or family at least not speaking to them. One family sold their van, another abandoned this poor unfortunate:
I have been disowned by my family due to these deamon bears.
After scrolling through all the one-star reviews and resorting to Google, I found the prizewinner of all Gummy Bear horror stories:
Moral of the story is perhaps I was more afraid of sugar substitutes than I should have been, but these make for wonderfully entertaining reading. What do you think?
