For Dietary Supplementation "I began taking this product on 4/17/20 (2 gummies a day). I was in the ER by the 19th. I resumed taking the gummies on the 22nd, and after yet another episode, I sent an email to consumer affairs about this poison. If you look on sites like Amazon or Walmart, the reviews are terrific. Drugs.com was the only reliable review source, and I wish I would’ve found this site prior to my purchase. Symptoms started with skin irritation, insomnia, bloating, diarrhea, and a metallic taste in my mouth. Symptoms graduated to my entire face inflamed with hives, severe facial and neck swelling, dizziness, sudden drop in blood pressure, rapid heartbeat, and frozen fingertips that graduated to my entire body trembling and headaches. I felt like I was on the verge of a heart attack. I’m healing now from the episode I had yesterday. I’m still not feeling too well, and I just pray that I can flush my system of this rubbish soon. I want NB held accountable for this toxin they’re selling!"

For Dietary Supplementation "Arms are broken out in a rash… itchy skin all over, diarrhea, and headaches. I didn’t realize my insomnia may also be caused by these vitamins. I have been taking them for 3 weeks. It’s the only thing I take-no other medications. Side effects started immediately. I went to my doctor thinking I had some autoimmune issue-stopped the vitamin and my rash got better, stomach is better, and sleeping again. I WISH I had read reviews before taking this nightmare of a supplement! It definitely needs to be discontinued based on what I am reading on here."

For Dietary Supplementation "DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. I wish I had read reviews before purchasing the gummies, I am currently covered in hives and a crazy skin rash on my torso region. I had a metallic taste in my mouth (I thought I was pregnant) and crazy diarrhea, I was always frequenting the bathroom. I have stopped taking them, and I am hopefully praying the rash on my chest clears."

For Dietary Supplementation "I have been taking Nature's Bounty Hair, Skin & Nails Softgels for 30 days now. I didn't realize the allergic reaction I was having was related to these vitamins until today. I have been to Urgent Care twice, the dermatologist, and my primary care doctor in the past month to address my swollen, numb, burning, peeling, stinging lips. I have been treated with prednisone and antibiotics and topicals. In addition, I have had diarrhea. I should have checked the side effects and reviews first!"

For Dietary Supplementation "I have only been taking this for about a week and have been experiencing very severe stomach pains and diarrhea. However, I think it could just be cleaning out my system? Still, vitamins are about the only weight loss option I have, as it is the only one that truly works. I have been far less munchy, so I think this is good."

For Dietary Supplementation "I started taking this vitamin because my hair was rapidly falling out. Two weeks I have been on the vitamin, and for the entire two weeks, my stomach was extremely upset. Diarrhea, upset stomach, sore throat, and skin rashes occurred. I have never had any allergic reaction, or even side effects to medication or vitamins, until this. To top it all off, I have noticed not a single change in hair, skin, or nails. Be wary of this product, and at the very least, keep an eye out for symptoms."

For Dietary Supplementation "Took these for less than 2 weeks, experienced bad face breakouts (acne and hives), diarrhea, and chest tightness, which is what really got me... considering I'm only 20! Although my nails have grown much faster than ever before."

For Dietary Supplementation "I just took these a few hours ago, and my stomach became nauseous after about 30 minutes. I have felt like vomiting a few times, but I have not. I took 2 Tums to combat the nausea, and when I took these supplements 3 days ago, I didn’t even notice that I had issues then because I blamed the upset stomach on some fast food I ate that night since I had taken the vitamins around 1:00 earlier that day. I ended up with mild diarrhea that night and slept with an upset stomach all night long from about 9 PM to 12 AM, so 13 hours of hell. There’s also a cooling type sensation in my stomach, almost like I swallowed a peppermint. I can’t smell or taste it like others have commented, but the upset stomach is too much to bear. Returning these with the receipt. So glad I only took two versus the recommended dosage of three, or I would have really been messed up."

For Dietary Supplementation "OMG, I was so excited about taking these, and I started feeling nauseous and then diarrhea nonstop! I never felt so sick. I went to the doctor, and they told me I’m fine, but again, the gummy side effects do include upset stomach, etc. I wish I had read that before actually taking them. Never again!"
