My wife and I first bought Ful-Renu after becoming desperate to find something to help our son’s eczema. His eczema was not minor! It covered over half his back and would get so bad he would bleed. Even prescriptions were not helping to clear his skin up. Ful-Renu was like a miracle. After applying it one time, we saw drastic improvement the next day and he was completely cleared up in a week. So we decided to try all of Ancient Ultimates products. I didn’t have any specific reason you take this product, so it sat on our counter for months. Just week ago, for no reason, I decided I would start trying the capsules for the heck of it. And I am glad I did!!! I have been dealing with plantar fasciitis for years now. After only a week my pain is all but gone! I’m a farmer and there our days in the shop where we I will be standing on concrete for 8+ hours. And I will admit that after those long days on the concrete there might still be a little lingering pain. But contrast that with excruciating pain after just an hour on the concrete before I took this product! Also, my joint pain is gone! I noticed this after kneeling for a few minutes getting our toddler ready in the morning. Before taking this product, I would have to get up slow because my knees would be so sore after kneeling. And I would have to walk around to loosen my knees up for the pain to go away. After a few days with this product, I noticed I hopped right up and my knees felt great! I am not doctor. But I do know that both my joint pain and plantar fasciitis were caused by inflammation. So my only guess is that this product has helped reduce my inflammation. But regardless, I don’t care the reasons! Because it works! P.S. I am also getting right up out of my bed at my first alarm instead of hitting the snooze button for 2 hours! I don’t have anything but this product that I can contribute that to!
