5.0 out of 5 stars Works great, but Organics Wholesale Rips off on Shipping, March 24, 2009

By	J. C. Miletich - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: D-Ribose Powder (Health and Beauty)

I found a definite increase in energy within a week by taking D-Ribose. However, Organics Wholesale totally rips you off on shipping - they charge $5.95 PER BOTTLE - that's right, they charged me $11.90 to ship two bottles in one box. All Star Health charges a flat fee of $5.95 for shipping both bottles, and the price of the D-Ribose is the same.

5.0 out of 5 stars Relief From Fibromyalgia Pain, July 25, 2007

By	Janice Lee "sonofstar" (Lansing, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I learned about D-Ribose while attending a lecture by Dr. Jacob Teitlebaum in Stanford, CT Sept 2006. Researchers have been finding that the muscles of individuals with CFS literally shorten up like rigor mortis setting in on a corpse. The shortening in turn pulls on the spots where the muscles connect to bone and tendons and may be the cause of the fibro trigger points. When tested, these people are severely deficient in D-ribose, a sugar muscles need in order to lengthen and work properly.

At the time I heard this lecture, I was struggling with an overly active, strong GoldenDoodle puppy that pulled so hard on me during walks by day that I was waking up at 2:30am in the mornings in extreme pain in my shoulders and back. I purchased D-ribose and took it at the onset of pain. Amazingly, the pain would subside and be gone within 20-30 mins of consuming the sugar.

Since then I've been taking D-ribose daily and have had far fewer fibro flares. I had the chance recently to go without D-ribose for 3 days when I forgot to pack it for a trip to TX. By the third day, I'd awakened stiff and in pain from head to toe and my husband had to do an errand of mercy and find a store that sold it. He brought some back to me, I took it and within an hour I was feeling myself again.

Currently research is being undertaken in the areas of congestive heart failure and fibromyalgia to see how beneficial D-ribose may be and the data to date is all positive. Looks to be an excellent product to help relieve conditions that might otherwise not be helped.

5.0 out of 5 stars It has been working for me, November 23, 2008

By	G. L. Cooper "Super Granny" (Chula Vista, CA. USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: D-Ribose Powder 8 oz (Health and Beauty)

I started using the D-Ribose powder to help with Chronic Fatigue and it did take three weeks for me to notice any change. Others that have CF and Fibro told me it worked earlier for them but everyone is different. The Company I get mine is all star health. The delivery is usually the next day for me because I am in Ca. Excellent company and excellent product to say the least!
