Guest guest Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Just got this from the company that Anita said she gives her 7 yr old son. I still want to see the packaging label though. " The caffeine in Organo Gold products is naturally occurring. Naturally occurring caffeine can vary depending on the variety of coffee or cacao beans, the blend and/or the brewing method. The caffeine in instant coffee ranges from approx. 60mg to 85mg per 8oz cup. The range of caffeine in cocoa beverages is 3-32mg per 8oz. cup, with the typical being approx. 6mg. The amount of sugar in each Organo Gold product is listed in the Nutrition Facts panel on each box. We also offer product options without any sugar " . OK so there IS both caffiene and sugar in this. That's about the amount/effects I got from small Ritalin in the 60' which totally screwed up my nerves by the time I entered college and took a good 7 years to recover from. Anita, I know you said this helps your son. Now. But, please be aware of possible postponed until later in life. Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Yes but I give him hot chocolate not coffee and only a cup everyday or every other day. Also you are forgetting the ganoderma factor that has health benefits. I recommend the coffee for adults that already drink regular coffee. I am not creating a new habit. This is great for people that drink regular bad coffee they can exchange it for healthier coffee. That's it. Thanks for your info.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 I also forgot to mention that for people that don't want to consume the coffee or chocolate for whatever reason, there are pills available with just the ganoderma in it. But dont worry Gretchen I understood you already. This product might not be for you, but it can help others. It has helped other people and doctors have approved it.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Anita, I have received a further breakdown on the products. The hot chocolate has glucoses syrup solids, vegetable fat, sodium Caseinate, Dipotassium Phosphate, Pentasodium Triphosphate, mono and diglycerides, skim milk powder, riboflavin, sodium aluminum, sugar, malt extract,cocoa, ganoderma extract and vanillin. The entire pdf will be added to our Files asap. I'm happy your son believe it helps him. However, anyone or any child with mold or fungal allergies should be cautious about products with ganoderma in them and that includes coffee. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ganoderma Anita, can you provide us with the medical research abstracts or articles on this? I know about it as published for inflammatory and immune disorders, but there is nothing on it for CMT or peripheral neuropathy. Everyone has something they 'swear by' I know I do, but as a person with CMT I am always cautious with the 'cure of the moment' - last year we were on an Acai tangent. There's all sorts of others. Some of you may want to sign up for quackwatch.com alerts or just look around the site for substances flagged or questionable.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Whoever is interested can research it on their own. If you check all my emails I never said it cured CMT. All I said was that it helped my son with fatigue which is due to his CMT. He is also constipated and that is not due to CMT. It helps with diabetes, cancer, stress, etc. not due to CMT either. So I was just recommending it in general. And yes you are right people that are allergic to mushrooms can't take ganoderma but you would know if you are allergic before taking it. Thanks again for the info. Anita gfijig <gfijig@...> wrote: >Anita, > >I have received a further breakdown on the products.
