NutriiVeda - want testimonials from members

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

Okay, I've done the research, and I'm feeling a bit skeptical. When I asked

" what is NV? " I hoped to get a response describing WHAT it is and pointing

me to the official website for the company and product. I did finally find

those, but I had to discover them totally on my own. Testimonials are

great, but they are not the WHAT about the product, they are some people's

opinions as to WHY.

The two people who have shared with me thus far about NV both have a

personal, vested interest in this product (one as a distributor and one

whose name is all over the website I was linked to and who is listed as a

contact by one of the founding physicians). I would really like to hear

from families who have used NV with their apraxic children, and who are NOT

trying to sell it to me. I am astonished at the cost. It would eat up more

than 1/3 of my family's monthly food budget, and all that for just one child

(we're a family of 5). I love her and absolutely want what is best for her,

but I am not convinced this product is as safe or effective as the claims

when considering the cost. Here is an obvious question that comes to my

mind: if it is made up of 100% food and not supplements or nutrient

additives, then how can it have a 2 year shelf life? Foods that are

nutritious and beneficial don't last that long on a shelf in my experience.

I do hope there are answers to these questions. I do know there are good

products out there, but since NV is part of an MLM structure, I know that

means that it is not worth what you pay. Too many people have to earn their

" net profits " (their piece of the pie) before the actual cost of the product

is paid to the manufacturer.

I don't think I would be so skeptical if I could hear testimonies from

people who are not already invested in the MLM part of this. And there was

negative language about SPEAK shared, which has worked well for my daughter.

We noticed a difference right away, and we ran out about two weeks ago

(she's been on it for more than a year), and the week after we ran out, she

started throwing the worst tantrums she's ever had and then some! I

actually made the connection to the reduction in fish oil supplements as the

possible cause because of how out of character her behavior was. She lost

all ability to manage her emotions and behavior.

I am brand new to this forum and don't want to start off on the wrong side

of things, but I hope it is an open forum where everyone is here to help

everyone else and not just promote your products. Thanks for taking time to

read this and offer your feedback.
