I love Standard Process, the only products I'll use. I swear by this company after 15 years of use. Cal amo helped my inflammation in frozen shoulder, my 3rd time getting, but this time it knocked it out very fast!

My husband has severe allergies in the spring and summer. His eyes run none stop and he is miserable. A friend told us about CalAmo and within days he was better and he takes one a day. If it starts to act up he will take 2 for a couple days and he has no problem.

I started taking these about 3 weeks ago and can actually tell a difference. (Yes, I was skeptical!) Leg/knee pain has been significantly reduced. This is the only change I have made, so attribute it to Cal Amo. Extremely pleased!

I have used this product for many years. Whenever I feel the beginnings of a cold sore, I start taking it 3 times per day. It works like a miracle for me to clear up any cold sores super quick. I always keep some on hand.

I have 2 collapsed discs in my neck and suffer from severe shoulder pain that radiates all the way down my arm. At night my arm tingles, goes numb and I wake all night from pain in my traps. I took only one Cal-Amo pill a night for 7 days and and by the 7th day my pain has reduced 90% and I am able to get a good nights sleep. It was recommended by a fellow co-worker who suffers from carpal tunnel and she states that is has cured her. This stuff WORKS!!!
