I've tried/am trying it for inflammation. The good news is that it has relieved most of the pain in my right shoulder. I say most because yesterday afternoon, after 15 minutes of riding, it came back. Of course, both the horse and I were somewhat the worse for wear in the heat. Other aches and pains (I'm 68 and haven't been riding for several months. My horse was lame...maybe I should give some CigRx to her.) seem to be less, but that may be just placebo. When they're definitely reduced, I'll let you know.
The bad news is that I really dislike the container and the taste. The container sticks and sometimes doesn't work at all. I had to take one apart to get the tabs out. It was stuck and would not feed. The taste is sickly sweet mint, IMHO. The mint's not bad, it's the mannitol. I wouldn't mind the gaseos aftereffects if I didn't have the aftertaste. I'm sure it'll be in all versions of the product since it facilitates crossing the blood-brain barrier. Hence, the Alsheimer's application.
Does anyone know if the product has to be absorbed in the mouth to be effective for inflammation? IOW, will stomach acid destroy anatabine before it reaches the bloodstream? I'd love to be able to just swallow them whole.
