Omega XL

I have severe joint pain. My hands throb and wake me at night. Which is why I saw the infomercial. I've been taking Omega XL every day for three weeks and the pain is ten times worse. My hands literally "fall asleep" when I lay down now. The pain for the first hour after I wake is unbearable. My knees are hurting more, my neck and shoulders are hurting more so I can't recommend this product myself.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

My cardiologist recommended that I use it rather than the omega fish oils that I was using. It may be as good or better. I am not in a position to judge. My cardiologist is very good and helped me through 2 heart surgeries so I 100% trust him. My review is more about the selling tactics and follow-up tactics than the product since I am neither a doctor or a nutritionist so I can't do a good job to judge the product.

My cardiologist said the product "may" help some shoulder-neck pain. He wanted me to take it for the heart benefits.

I received the product quickly. It was over-documented. They send expensive printing and even a CD. For fatty oils?

I bought a package of 2 containers. Since my doctor "prescribed it," I certainly already was going to reorder when the time came. What bothered me A LOT was on arrival they announced to me that I had agreed to automatic shipments and future charges to my credit card. I did not (intentionally) agree to that. It must have been buried in fine print IF IT WAS THERE AT ALL.

I phoned irritated and spoke with Andy. It should have been a quick phone call, but Andy was working to make me feel comfy. We talked about the weather for at least 5 minutes, and he expressed how happy he was to have learned something. He explained that I wouldn't want to be without the benefits of the oils even for a few days by mistake, so it's best to approve automatic reorders. I still said no. He agreed. He was marking my account for no more automatic renewals.

Then as closing, he said that he closed the account and there would be no automatic shipments. Therefore he picked a date in April and said that they would ship more on that date and charge my credit card.

Huh? Isn't that just what I said I did not want?

Finally, he agreed to cancel all automatic renewals.

By the way, the pills are MUCH smaller than the omega oil pills I had been taking. That is quite good (supposing that there is as much benefit to them) since they are easier to swallow and take up less space in my pill container. I have too many pills, so space was a problem.

Summary: I assume the product is good. I am outraged by the ethics and attitude of the marketing. Therefore I give the product 5 stars and the marketing 1 stars = an average of 3 stars.

Ok, let me start off by saying that like with anything medical, you can't be 100% certain that your self-diagnosis is accurate. This product is designed to treat inflammatory pain, not all pain. For me, I wasn't able to get out of bed so easy in the morning due to this type of pain, and this product really helped me. It's worth a try and if it doesn't work for you just remember there's a 90-day money back program. Just call or email and cancel.

I began taking the product last year (2016), and it became the one product I do not go without. This has done wonderfully for me and my husband, and we take it religiously each morning. Amazingly, I only have to take one tablet a day to get good results.

The product doesn't work like they claim. People need to read the reviews online before ordering this stuff. Furthermore, you should never give a company like this a credit card number and the ability to keep sending you their garbage product. If Americans would wake up and start thinking clearly, then these business scammers would have to get real jobs.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I just read all the people who have tried this stuff and see why they said 4 out of 6 people do not recommend it. Larry must have been paid a lot of money to recommend this stuff. I asked my doctor about it, and he also saw the same commercial on TV. He said this was just another placebo that costs a lot of money. Before you spend your hard-earned money, be aware.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

After taking the product for two MONTHS, I know is not doing anything for me. The mild discomfort in my fingers is the same, no less and no more than when I started taken Omega XL two months ago. I've been taking six pills a day. This is eight weeks now, and zero, absolutely not a hint of results!

DO NOT waste your money. They give me a hard time when I try to cancel the order, and they charged me $96 for my shipment, and they are keeping the shipping and handling money.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

My husband and I have been taking this product for over 4 years and really like it. It does stop our pain if we take it all the time. The problem is in trying to contact them. The hold time is long and they seem to try to keep you waiting as long as they can without helping. Our shipments always came before we needed them and would get 6 months worth sitting in the cupboard. We never knew for sure when the next shipment would arrive. They say they can put it on hold which they did except not knowing when the next shipment would arrive, we didn't always call in time. I was able to cancel (so they said) but then two days later I received another shipment costing almost $300 which will not be needed for at least two more months! Dealing with them is worse than our pains. There must be another product that works and maybe cheaper.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I was stupid to order this product because a relative (to get that $40.00) recommended it to me and that is the biggest mistake I made. I ordered it to reduce my knee joint pain but I inherited a very severe back pain. I never had a back pain and I am almost 68 and have been sleeping on the water bed for last 40 years. Of course I'll stop right away and will send it back to get my money. I feel outrageous about how people deceive innocent to make a few bucks.

People don't seem to realize that nothing goes with you when you leave this beautiful humanly life few on earth. I would not recommend to any body because I don't want to cause people misery like I'm presently undergoing. I never had a back problem for last forty years but it will get better but don't know how long will it take.

I wish I could give a zero rating but that option is sadly not available.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

A family member introduced me to Omega XL and it helps me go to work without pain.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This stuff works wonders.

I was in pain when I woke up, and by the time I got home from work, I would be in pain so bad that I couldn't sleep until I took pain meds, which I don't like to do. I got to the point where I didn't want to get up and go to work in the morning.

So finally my husband talked me into ordering this. I didn't like the idea because we live paycheck to paycheck, but if it worked, then it was worth it. So I tried it, and within the first week, I already saw improvements.

I had to stop taking it the past few months because of lack of money and have missed the relief from pain. I'm looking forward to starting my order back up soon.
