Lifepak , my personal review on this Pharmanex Nuskin dietary supplement

Here is the product which I am talking about. Lifepak dietary supplementary , Pharmanex. From Nuskin distribution network. Lately, I managed to take a photo of the exterior box which I bought from its Singapore office at Park Mall - 10th level. It is Near Dhoby Ghaut MRT station.


**Exterior box packaging - any Love At first sight ? Well, my first box of Lifepak , is of very soft cardboard box that can be easily crushed with a light punch. That really makes me feel skeptical when I was holding the physical box ( a bit out of shape ) , despite it was still in shrink wrap. Immediately, I was asking myself   "  why Nuskin did not even bother to package their product with a better quality exterior box, for what I have paid (over a hundred of Singapore Dollars! ) for...

*** There is a barcode and the numbers , beneath the Exterior box.

*** Side of the box . Refer to the next two pictures showing the contents of Lifepak ,per packet serving.

 
*** On the back of the Box .

*** Interior packaging - a sealed aluminum foil bag containing the 60 packets and that is what you see after opening up the shrink wrapped box. Hope to update with a picture soon...

REASON to try out LifePak ? Well, it all happened on a hot & sunny week in August 2010 when I caught a bad flu and had to rest at home for 5 days. And not long after in September 2010, I fell sick again with similar cold symptoms. But this time, I was very upset and equally disappointed with my health.
Other than the fact I had to be away from work again, my 14-month old boy had to take antibiotics (AUGMENTIN ) due to a bad throat infection.
Now that both father and son are on the same brand of antibiotics, so how does that sound to you?

To be frank , I actually started taking LifePak, solely based on good word-of-mouth by my friend whom I have known for 20 years. There are just too many choices in the market and besides I personally do not take advice from the supplier themselves..

*** Next let us look at the COLD / FLU medication that I have for the past two years...
1) Antamin - On the left of below picture. Light yellow color , round tablet for runny / blocked nose
2) Xyzal - for sensitive nose only in the morning.
3) Fedec -  a light pink color , round shaped tablet for blocked/ runny nose. Missing from the picture.
By the way , have you tried them before ?  Suck those tablets accidentally for a second and you will know their taste...

Between Vitamins / Supplements and Cold Medications/ Antibiotics, I had to make a choice. And of course,  I chose Lifepak , in hope for a better BET!

.

The various product reviews and blogs on Lifepak that you see over the internet are All very professionally done. So much so, that it makes me feel skeptical to try the product itself , because I am not reading a personal review from a 3rd party. This is just my two cents but a detailed blog with personal pictures would be more convincing instead.

Note 1) the distributing company for LifePak , Nuskin is regulated by DSAS. Something which I was not aware of . Check out the Direct Selling Association of Singapore (DSAS) Web on those companies that are properly regulated at http://www.dsas.org.sg/dsas/Html/afterlogin.htm

And after consuming Lifepak for 3 months on a daily basis without fail, I have decided to write a personal & unbiased review of Lifepak for comparison and notes sharing for all. So , feel free to add your comments.

Indeed, I was feeling less tired in the morning ( used to take it at dinner time ) after first 2 weeks of consumption, one packet per day without fail. Somehow I knew it was working , despite its recommended dosage is 2 packets per day. So I decided to share this to all , and whomever needing a final push to try the product. Make a difference , take the best Bet ...

CONCLUSION: 
Is Lifepak just another product of a MLM Network Marketing company? Does it really work ? You will be the judge. It is your choice anyway, cheers!

But I will continue to observe the effects and will update my blog accordingly. So please mark down this web page or web link as your at your IE or Firefox internet browser. 

UPDATE NOV 2010
***After 2 months of one satchet of Lifepak per day, I won the struggle with another flu bug in Oct 2010 with only Cold medication ( Antamin with Fedac ) and Lifepak. No antibiotics this time - hooray!

UPDATE 30 JAN 2011 - Sunday ;
1) From Nov 2010 to Jan 2011 , I survived the cold Dec 2010 days in Singapore with no flu or cold illness. And occasionally when I feel tired, I just increased my intake to 2 packets for that period of time when I have people coughing & sneezing in my office , or in the same vehicle.

2)My son started taking Lifepak for kids - Jungamals , back in Dec 2010 and I observed that he is a step away from cold medications and Antibiotics. To be reviewed again and maybe on another blog about Jungamals? ...

Stay tuned for more updates on this review - backdated Dec 17 2010.
