First heard about, and used, Ambrotose, in 1984.  Still using it!
First had this recommended to me in 1984, when I had a persistent upper-bronchitis infection for 2 months.<br />(I used to get these, Spring and Fall, every year, since having "walking pneumonia", in 1975.)<br />Coupled 1 capsule, twice a day, with 1000 mg Vit C & echinacea (alcohol tincture) - kicked it in 4 days!!!<br />Haven't had that problem, Spring or Fall, ever since then, either.  ALWAYS use Ambrotose for a cold.<br /><br />Even used it to fight an abscessed tooth (twice now) - took a couple of weeks, but it fixed the problem.<br />(Really important, when you can't pay for health or dental insurance!!  I don't see the doctor much, either.)<br /><br />This stuff is safe - it's just FOOD.<br />It's the VINE-RIPENED sugars from 8 different fruits & vegetables, PERIOD.  (Those sugars are the reason that VINE-RIPENED fruits and vegetables taste sweeter than what you get at the store - ask someone who grows their own garden, or tomatoes.)  Doesn't taste like sugar, though - more like SLIGHTLY scalded peanut brittle.<br />(Yeah, I know - weird, but true.)<br />Those sugars (chemicals) allow the immune system to talk to each cell in your body - which they CAN'T w/o these chemicals (which you don't get anywhere else in your diet.)  Ever wonder why people didn't get caner so often during 50's & 60's? - partly because they ate food they grew for themselves, and it was ripe before they ate it.<br />Just sayin'...
