Easy to swallow

I’ve been taking these for a week, and I do feel a little bit brighter in myself. I struggle with the dark mornings at this time of the year, and I really think these have given me the extra boost that I need.

Arrived fast, and love the paper packaging instead of the traditional plastic bottles. Have only been taking for one week, can't wait to see the difference in my body.

I received the collagen capsules only yesterday (10th October) but I consider the delivery to be prompt because I live in Western Australia. I find the fitnesshealth service to be very reliable and the products good value for money. I also get ginger tablets from you, and I find that both products have positive effects on my health. Thank you very much. Lesley Fahey.
