does it work good for aniexty
I have a friend who takes it and it has worked very well for him.
But you must bare in mind that not all organisms are the same, so what may work for someone may not work as good for somebody else, we are all unique and react to medications in different ways.-
I hope it works for you as well as it has done for my friend.-
All the best.-
