I was very skeptical about the product but thought, why not? Well, it worked!! I took it for 7 days per directions and on the 12th day, had a casserole that contained cream of celery soup, milk, sour cream and mozzarella cheese. I was expecting stomach cramps and having to remain near a bathroom. Neither of these happened!!! I will start my second month of pills soon and hopefully it will work just as well!
