Conclusion – NOW Foods True Calm
There are a couple of positive things about NOW True Calm. If a bottle can last up to three months, then the price is quite reasonable. We also liked that the dietary supplement uses only a natural blend of ingredients that contain no artificial solvents, binders, or chemicals. Of the reviews we read, there definitely were some who gave very positive feedback that True Calm was helpful in relieving symptoms of anxiety. However, on the negative side, we were disappointed in the lack of any form of guarantee. Like any supplement, a product that had a guarantee is more likely to win support by a broader consumer audience and promotes the belief that the company stands behind its claims of what the product can achieve for you. We were also disappointed that there was no information on the website nor on the label regarding possible side effects. This is critically lacking since the consumer needs to be fully aware of the possible risks involved in starting a new supplement. From our own research, we found the following side effects were possible; headaches, insomnia, and excessive drowsiness. Lastly, we saw plenty of reviews stating that the capsules were completely ineffective. For these reasons, we cannot fully recommend True Calm.
