Nutricost Stinging Nettle Root Extract 7500mg Equivalent, 120 Capsules - Vegetarian Friendly, Non-GMO, Gluten Free

It is probably too early to form a correct opinion. However, so far, it has worked wonders. I will give another feedback in a couple of months.

It seems to work as a decongestant instead of taking Sudafed which causes my vision to be somewhat blurred. It doesn't work as fast as Sudafed but it does relieve the congestion and no blurred vision.

A couple of years ago I started to do resistance training and take creatine for the first time. About a month in (or a bit more), I started to experience dramatically increased hair loss at the crown area. To combat this issue, since it most likely related to DHT, I developed an evolving treatment protocol. The latest iteration involved 1 pill of the Stinging Nettle Root every night and 1 pill of Saw Palmetto every morning, along with applying natural DHT blocking, stimulating, and/or anti-fungal ingredients and essential oils a couple to few times week. I also use an electric massager and red light cap a couple to few times a week.It's slow going, but I'm starting to get the hair back (I've only been doing the above full holistic treatment for about a year).It is hard to say how much or little the stinging nettle root is contributing to the above, but it is well known to strongly inhibit (not fully block) testosterone to DHT conversion in a slightly different way and ratio than saw palmetto (which is why I take them both, at opposite ends of the day).My already low sex drive has gotten a bit lower since doing all the above, but I don't think that is just the stinging nettle. (I've only been taking the stinging nettle for about 5 months, while the other stuff above I've been doing for longer--again about a year or so).

Debating/researching what brand to buy? I did the same for many,many days on supplements. Read below!I love that Nutricost tests all their products. You can literally contact them, with the LOT# on the bottle and they will send you test results. Why is that important? Many companies for one do not provide tests results if asked, you will usually get ignored or receive a generic response. It is also important because a lot of supplements can have heavy metals/contaminates in them and there is no warning of this.An example would be, almost all Ceylon Cinnamon across the world will have some type of contaimenants no matter what. I purchased some from Nutricost, contacted them about what tests have been done, they asked for the LOT# on the bottle and I received the test results the next day. The tests showed all levels of contaimenants were VERY low / in the range we're the body will not be effected. Many spices have contaimenants so keep that in mind! We tend to cook with them and have no idea. Make sure to look up Third Party Heavy Metal Spice test results, you will find a few lists of which brands are okay to buy.One of the very few Supplement Companies I trust! BUY NOW! :)

Good quality.

I’ve been using for a while and replaced a different brand that was not effective. Haven’t really noticed a difference with this brand either, but we’ll give it a few more months/bottles to see.

I looked around for a product that i thought would be worth my time and money. In reading about several brands and how they produced this form of stinging nettle I felt this one would be worth a try.After a month of use I am quite pleased with my experience of their product. i will be buying it again.Update: It is now October of 2024. Last month I let it lapse a couple of weeks before getting another order. Then I noticed I was starting to feel a bit of pain in a finger of my hand. I know that nettles are recognized for helping reduce arthritis pain. I have severe arthritis in my hands and feet and ordered another bottle right away. The pain in my fingers dissipated within a week of being back on this supplement. A lesson learned. I wont be so casual about letting my order lapse nest time.Hope this has been helpful

I have severe allergies (think anaphylactic to the allergy test) and nothing has helped. Worse: my insurance HATES my high-needs prescriptions and fights me every time I get something filled.I started looking for holistic meds to help, along with what prescriptions I managed to force them to fill, and found that a few things really help. And some things do not. I won’t list the things I’ve tried and found no help from, but I will list what has been incredibly helpful for me.You’re welcome to search the promising studies on the list of what I’ve found helpful, and as always, consult your doctor, but here is what I take:Nettle: allergies and asthmaBromelian: asthmaPine Bark: Asthma/Allergies/ADHDTexas allergy dropsRiboflavin: migraine (prescribed by my neurologist)Magnesium: All The Things (prescribed for migraine though)Lithium (5 mg): Depression/anxiety (this will make me sleepy, though, aid I take it daily—so I often take it every other day instead of every day)B-complex: energy, brain fog, focus and attention, physical energy (this is a morning med or I’ll be up all night)I also take Flonase and Zyrtec nightly, though sometimes the Zyrtec isn’t enough. Thus the supplements.I’ve tampered with these over time, and finally found these to be the MOST worthy of my efforts to find stuff that works. I’m probably most impressed with the stinging nettle, and initially noticed that the tea helped when I had a cold that settled in my lungs. I’m really impressed with how much less I struggle with a runny nose and asthma!
