What is Pure Encapsulations Uric Acid Formula?
The following review is for a product called Pure Encapsulations Uric Acid Formula, a dietary supplement that is designed to support healthy uric acid metabolism balance, and to promote healthy liver enzyme activity. The manufacturer claims that this supplement is made with hypoallergenic, vegan ingredients, which makes it suitable for almost everyone. Moreover, they claim that is has been clinically tested.
Ingredients
- Vitamin C
- Potassium
- Devil’s Claw
- Cherry
- Quercetin
- Bromelain
- Grape
All these ingredients play different roles in the body, some of which are beneficial in decreasing uric levels, and other gout symptoms. For instance, Potassium has organic salts that are known to reduce uric acid levels. Cherries were also proven to be effective in lowering uric acid levels. However, we were disappointed to find out that some of the ingredients might have little or no effect in providing relief from gout pain and its symptoms. For instance, Devil’s Claw has shown to be effective in providing relief from arthritis, lowering arterial blood pressure and cholesterol. There is no conclusive research done on providing relief from gout pain. Vitamin C is effective to some extent. Recent research revealed that vitamin C does not decrease levels of uric acid to a clinically significant extent.
Other ingredients: Vegetarian capsule, ascorbyl palmitate, and Maltodextrin.
Dosage
The suggested dose is two capsules taken daily in divided doses, between your meals or as indicated by your healthcare practitioner. It is advised that you contact your doctor if you are pregnant before taking the supplement.
What is the Cost?
Pure Encapsulations Uric Acid Formula can be purchased from various online retailers for a price of $36.60, for 120 capsules. We did not come across any discounts.
Manufacturer’s Guarantee
The manufacturer does not offer any guarantee to the customers. This is not good considering that you would have bought 120 capsules. If there were less capsules, maybe 30 or 60 it would have been better because one would not have paid a lot of money that they would not get back if they are unsatisfied. The lack of guarantee also points to the lack of confidence on the product by the manufacturer.
Our Final Review of Pure Encapsulations Uric Acid Formula
Pure Encapsulations Uric Acid Formula seems to be a promising supplement for addressing gout symptoms, and for promoting healthy liver enzyme activity. We like that the product has been clinically tested, and that it is suitable for almost everyone due to its safe ingredients. However, we are not happy that there are few reviews on this supplement, compared to similar products on the market. This indicates to us that this product is not well known, and that it has not been bought by many. Few reviews do not provide enough feedback to be able to help a prospective customer in making a decision to buy or not to buy. We are even more concerned that there is no money-back guarantee. It would be a risk to buy this product, especially because the price is higher than other products. We understand that the quantity of capsules is high, which explains the price, however, when one is not satisfied, over 100 capsules might go to waste. Furthermore, not all ingredients seem to be helpful in addressing gout. Therefore, we do not recommend this product.
