It's important to not get caught up in the promises of supplements like this as they can have extremely adverse affects on babies and young children. If your medical doctor suggests Zinc supplementation because your babies diet is not sufficient in it for various reasons, then this is a great quality product to use. We are having to supplement our baby and could use this as an alternative to our usual product - the price was better and the quality is on par so we will switch to this for the remainder of our time needing to supplement. Do not ever, under any circumstances, start giving your baby supplements like this without the recommendation of a medical doctor. -

I seem to endlessly deal with dry hands which I attribute to having various hobbies and jobs that often involve frequent handwashing, and not always with the best quality soaps. I moisturize daily, often many times in a day too. Some moisturizers are either too smelly, or too oily, or too full of chemicals for my liking. This Aveeno moisturizer was just perfect - the ingredients list is simple with lots of great natural ingredients, it's scent free (which I really appreciate as a male user), and it doesn't leave my hands too oily feeling where I can still easily use my phone and tools without feeling like I'm smudging or slipping on things. I like this better than the previous natural product I was using - I'm a convert, I'm buying more when it's done! Other family members have begun using it too, and all have had equally as great of feedback when I asked them before writing this. -

The timing of getting this product was uncanny - I was just starting to deal with a horrible eczema flare-up on my hands from a lot of water exposure in recent days working in the yard. It was itchy and dry and making me miserable. I started the Eczema Care Rescue Relief Treatment Gel Cream right away and to my surprise, it started to knock the flare-up down really fast. For comparison - as a horrible eczema sufferer, I've spent my life mostly being inconvenienced by having to deal with prescription refills for creams, or trying various off-the-shelf products that give me little-to-no actual relief. After this cream started knocking the flare-up down, I introduced a regular routine of AVEENO Eczema Care Daily Moisturizing Cream too. The flare-up subsided quite fast and since then I've gone longer than I usually would (without using prescription creams) between flare-ups. By golly I think it works! -

With 2/3 of us in the house being regular eczema suffers, we've tried everything over the years for relief. The prescription stuff always works, but the time involved with getting prescriptions written and filled can be tricky between life, work and family duties. A lot of off the shelf products we've tried over the years just haven't met our expectations; with either mild-to-no relief really provided. We got the AVEENO Eczema Care Daily Moisturizing Cream at the right time - just as a flare-up was happening on my one hand from a lot of water contact recently. I started using it regularly and once the flare-up subsided it has stayed away - I'd go so far as to say that so far I've gone longer between seeing any recurrence of eczema in that area than I ever have with an off-the-shelf product in the past. As my title says "it just works" - that isn't something I've said about many other non-prescription products in the past. With a second family member also regularly using it, he feels the same results. This will become a staple in our household and will be bought again once depleted. -

We're right in the height of that fall cold season right now, and every year like clockwork I get a horrible cold right around the same time. Well, this year it just happened to be around the time my Sambucol arrived so I was able to start on it right away. As soon as my trial packets were done, I immediately went out and bought more so that I could continue a regular, daily dosage of it. Call me crazy, but I feel like my cold didn't hit nearly as hard as they usually do, and also that it cleared up a day or two faster than usual too. It's hard to tell definitively from my home science, but I feel like I'm a believer in Sambucol and will absolutely keep some on hand in the house to take during cold and flu seasons.

I've seen Bai drinks on store shelves before but never had the kick I needed to step away from my regular brand and give them a try - until now. I always love a juice treat every now and then and prefer that whatever I drink being something very healthy that isn't pumping me full of sugars and processed chemicals. Sometimes the drinks I try, although they meet my requirements on the label, aren't always the tastiest of options. I was pleasantly surprised that Bai ticked all the boxes AND was very tasty. I bought the Mango one and it was just the perfect amount of flavor and sweetness - much more subtle than artificially flavored and sugar packed drinks, but I enjoyed it so much more because it tasted almost more home made. Plus, 10 calories is just a no brainer choice for me! We will definitely buy Bai again, and it may even replace my regular preferred brand at this point too! -
