Best Price Nutrition Review & Giveaway [CLOSED]

Here is the final installment of my reviews for Best Price Nutrition, as well as information on how you can win a full-sized bottle of one of these supplements for yourself!


This review is for New Chapter's Zyflamend Softgels, which I received a 5-day trial sized bottle to try.  The label states that it is the "#1 Selling Herbal in the U.S. for Healthy Inflammation Response."  The supplement promotes a healthy inflammation response and normal cardiovascular and joint function.  New Chapter has patented the formula used in these supplements, which "represents a scientific breakthrough in promoting a healthy inflammation response."  The statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration and the pills are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any diseases; but they are clinically tested and doctor recommended (stated on their label).

Like the past two supplements I tried, these pills were fairly large for me.  I have difficulty swallowing pills that are bigger than Motrin-sized, so I had to use applesauce for these.  They're about an inch long and maybe half an inch wide, but they're smooth gels so that made it easier for me.  Like with the Wholemega fish oil I reviewed in Part III, I didn't notice any physical difference after taking these for the 5 days.  I can imagine that they would be beneficial when taken at a longer stretch of time though, and I would be willing to try out a full-sized bottle.

Bottom Line: I would recommend these supplements for anyone who has stiff joints, or other inflammation problems.  They are a dietary/herbal supplement, so I like that they're made from natural ingredients.

Giveaway! The kind people at Best Price Nutrition have offered a full-sized bottle of one of the supplements I have reviewed to one of my readers.  To enter, use the Rafflecopter form behind the "read more."

Best Price Nutrition Review, Part III - Wholemega

Part three of my Best Price Nutrition reviews!  Remember that at the end of these reviews (there are four total), there will be a giveaway and one winner will be able to choose a full-sized bottle of supplements from the ones I've reviewed to try.


I received a five-day trial size of New Chapter Wholemega, which is a whole fish oil supplement.  It's made of 100% Extra-Virgin Wild Alaskan Salmon.  I've heard a lot about the health benefits of whole fish oil, so I was interested to give these a try.  If you aren't familiar with fish oil, the label states that it is "clinically shown to reduce triglyceride levels."  In layman's terms, triglycerides are the main constituents of natural fats and oils (yes, I had to look up the definition, haha).

These pills are big and I had the most difficulty swallowing them out of all of the supplements I received.  It took a few tries with a lot of applesauce!  But someone who is used to taking vitamins and supplements would surely have no problem with these.  They're smooth gel capsules, too, which made them easier for me to take than a pill with a chalky consistency.

Wholemega is different than conventional fish oil because the extra-virgin process used to extract Wholemega delivers an oil that is striking in color (an orange-ish bronze) and transparency.  The gentle, food-grade process preserves beneficial compounds like Vitamin D3 and Astaxanthin (which the brilliant hue of the pills comes from).  The antioxidant is naturally found in Wild Salmon and abundant in this Extra-Virgin fish oil.


Bottom Line: These supplements didn't make me feel any different, but I'm impressed by the process in which they are made.  I don't think I would invest in a full-sized bottle at the moment, but it's clear to me that these are beneficial to those who are interested in taking a fish oil supplement.

*Disclaimer: I received a 5-day trial bottle of Wholemega for free to facilitate my review.  I was not monetarily compensated for this review and the honest opinions are entirely my own.

Best Price Nutrition Review, Part II - Perfect Energy

Here is the second installment of my 4-part Best Price Nutrition reviews.  I received Perfect Energy, Holy Basil Force, WholeMega, and Zyflamend supplements to review.  After I post the final review, Best Price Nutrition will send one winner a bottle of the supplement of their choice.


This review is for "Perfect Energy" by New Chapter Organics.  The supplement is a whole-food multivitamin designed for balanced energy and endurance; I received a 5-day trial bottle.  I was interested to try these because I admittedly do not eat very well.  I don't eat a ton of vegetables, so I look to supplements to provide me with my daily servings of vitamins that I need.

These pills were a bit difficult for me to take, since I'm not the best at swallowing pills.  They're the size of an average vitamin, but I'm a baby when it comes to taking pills!  I couldn't take them with just water, so I ate them with a spoonful of applesauce.

The label on the bottle states that Perfect Energy is "the ideal organic whole-food multi delivering enhanced energy, performance, and endurance."  I definitely like that they were organic.  Organic Maca, Ginseng, and Rhodiola herbs boost energy without causing the crash that you'll get from sugary coffees or soft drinks.  These herbs enhance the body's ability to adapt to stress, fatigue, and worry.  Like the Holy Basil Force I reviewed in Part I, these were appealing to me because I get stressed at work and would much prefer to take a natural supplement to help me out.


Bottom Line: I liked these vitamins a lot and would definitely purchase a full-sized bottle.  It put my mind at ease to know that they were natural and organic, and that they could aid in my adaptation to stress and fatigue.

Best Price Nutrition Review, Part I

I received some supplements from Best Price Nutrition to review, and I am going to do a separate post for each supplement.  Hence the "Part I" in the title.  At the end of my fourth review, there will be an opportunity for one of my readers to win a full-sized bottle of one of these supplements.


I received Perfect Energy, Holy Basil Force, WholeMega, and Zyflamend.  This first entry is going to focus on the Holy Basil Force, my favorite of the bunch.

Holy Basil Force is from New Chapter Vitamins, and it promotes calm and balance.  I was most interested in trying this supplement out because my job can get pretty stressful, and I can take any kind of calming help I can find!  I received a 5-day supply, and took them for the past week.  The pills are a little larger than your average aspirin, and dark colored.  They actually had kind of a nice taste, too--not that I munched on them or anything, but they didn't have an unfortunate taste like some pills do.


I did notice a difference in my stress levels after taking these pills.  Some might say it's just a self-fulfilling prophecy, but either way, I felt more balanced after taking these supplements.  The label states the Holy Basil has been used by India's Ayurvedic masters "to support a positive stress response and healthy mood and spirit."  There are no potent chemicals or solvents in these supplements, just a pure, potent herbal extract.

Bottom Line: I would be willing to give these a long-term try.  Like I said, the sample size I received was for a 5-day trial.  I'm definitely okay with anything that's natural and could help me balance out my stress levels!

*Disclaimer: I received these sample-sized bottles of supplements from Best Price Nutrition free of charge to facilitate my review.  I was not monetarily compensated for this review, and the honest opinions are entirely my own.
