Not what I was hoping for, very sad!

By Lanette S., Carlisle, OH, Verified Reviewer

I have had IBS for years. I was so excited to see the doctor's video! I ordered 12 Total Restore, was positive this was going to help me. I ordered the prebiotics, Lectin Shield, and Vital Reds. I was ALL in!

I have used them all for two months now and am still waiting for a change. I also ordered his book and cookbook!

I am so sad to report I don't feel any difference! Oh how I wish I did! I had such a positive attitude, so excited after one month. I thought maybe I'm really bad and will give it more time. I am still waiting! I started craving ice cream. I have gained 6 pounds! Anyone else having this problem? Sorry, Dr. Gundry, I so wish I had better results!

I'm still taking them, they cost too much money to throw them out! Maybe after three months, I'll see something happening.

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

Hi Lanette, my name is Aria with Gundry MD. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for giving the prebiotics, Lectin Shield and Vital Reds a try! Many of our customers see the most changes after 90 days of consistent use, but we do understand that everybody is different and these supplements may work well for some but not others. I encourage you to continue giving these a try but if you continue to be unchanged, please email me at aria@gundrymd.com and I will be more than happy to issue you a full refund!

Works very, very well! Amazed at results!

By Brian B., Atlanta, GA, Verified Reviewer

I was very skeptical, however, after two months, no more IBS/Colitis symptoms and my nightly use of Zantac for GERD is no longer needed! Who knew? This product has given me extra energy, and I am now exercising again along with the Total Restore. I am feeling much better. Of course, as a clinician, I am aware of Placebo effects and emperical evidence, so I am convinced and will keep using! Thank you Dr. Gundry! I will also try other products because his worked so well!

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

Total Restore, best product ever!

By Herma B., Arizona, Verified Reviewer

Hi Dr. Gundry.

I just don't understand why this product gets so much negative review. As for me, this is the best-unprescribed product I have ever used. I am very wary when it comes to ordering stuff from the internet but because I have always suffered from bloating and gas I decided to give it a try. I am glad I did. Since taking it no more bloating, no more gas, no more craving, and yes it also suppresses my appetite. I lost a few pounds too.

The only problem I have is it's too pricey for me! I live in Canada and I have to pay extra for shipping and handling, plus exchange rate. I am placing an order today for 1 bottle, that is all I can afford and this will be my fourth. Can you help me out? I know I will always use Total Restore! Thanks for this excellent product!

Regards.

Fantastic

By Co C., Seattle, WA, Verified Reviewer

After reading the negative reviews, I have to say they sound a bit lame to me, unsubstantiated, perhaps disgruntled people.. I use this product and know the greatness it is.

I'm 58, F, decent physical shape, blood type O+.

I ordered this after my body started aging and all I wanted to do was eat everything in sight, but never felt full, which after researching the prob online read that's a main symptom of leaky gut, so, nothing to lose, except maybe excess weight, I placed an order.

The bottle arrived, I took one pill, on a pretty empty stomach, to get a better self-analysis of what it may or may not do, and was very impressed, with a feeling in my gut of youthful restoration. I get the name, it's spot on, gut felt toned with a healthy elasticity, instead of that flabby no muscle tone feeling, and loved that the ingredients are all natural. Hope had finally arrived, I now have something to help me restore health to my gut, I can use it as needed, which is how I use it since chocolate is really hard to give up. I think taking it before bed is most beneficial, wake up with a gut that's ready for a good diet.

I feel good giving recognition to people when I see their caring is apparent and is making an improvement in the lives of others.

So, Dr. Gundry, thank you, for this product and the caring and integrity you obviously had when you developed this. You are appreciated! Love your products!

It works

By John F., Hudsonville, MI, Verified Reviewer

I noticed improved digestion in a few days. No more acid indigestion or acid reflux after almost a month now. But what astonished me was that the arthritis pain and inflammation in my left hip and knee that has been bothering me for years got better within a week and is now almost completely gone. I had chronic tennis elbow in my right arm. It's gone. I have had a bone spur in my left index finger joint the size of a BB for almost a year. It's now almost undetectable.

I am 52. I decided to try Total Restore to lose weight, ironically that's the only benefit I have not received, but I haven't been exercising or changing my diet either. The improvements in my digestion and almost cure of my arthritis and inflammation problems have been a Godsend and I will continue to use and endorse this product.

A miracle supplement

By Melissa T., Eagan, MN, Verified Reviewer

My husband linked me to their website to watch the video because of the symptoms I have been experiencing for decades. He felt they applied to me. My symptoms included daily nausea in the morning, bloating after every meal, chronic mild pain throughout the body, general ill feeling, terrible fatigue, loose stools, and brain fog. After watching their video, I was convinced this was a gut issue. Reluctantly, I decided to order this product. I hesitated because I normally don't believe natural supplements work.

I received my product (nicely packaged) and began taking them as directed. After one week I felt I wasted my money on this product. But I kept taking them because my husband "give it a chance." After the second week, I started waking up with no nausea. My brain fog was clearing up, less bloating, less pain. I'm now in my 6th week and I have never felt better! This product is truly amazing, and I'm symptom-free now! I feel like a whole new person thanks to Dr. Grundy!

Insatiable appetite, anyone else?

By F L., Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, Verified Reviewer

I've been on taking Total Restore for about three weeks now and am wondering if anyone else has noticed an increase in their appetite? I take three in the morning with breakfast and then I can't stop snacking which is not usual for me. Other than that I'm not noticing any changes other than maybe a bit of stomach discomfort. I've done my research over the years on the product ingredients and this is what made me so keen on finding an all-in-one capsule. I'll finish my month and see if my appetite stabilizes, but I am tempted to return the other two bottles. And yes with currency exchange and customs, it is a very pricey supplement to be on.

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

Company Response from Gundry MD

Feb 19, 2019

Hi F L, thank you for taking the time to leave a review! I'm sorry to hear that you haven't seen the changes you had hoped for. An increase in appetite is not a normal side effect of Total Restore. As always, we ask that you consult your physician prior to beginning any new supplement. If you are unable to continue taking Total Restore, please email me at aria@gundrymd.com and I'd be happy to refund you.

So far, so good

By LaShunda T., St. Louis, MO, Verified Reviewer

I received my supplements on this past Thursday, I took my first dosage of 3 capsules Friday morning on an empty stomach. At first I got a really bad headache and I felt really tired so I ate something; an hour or two later I had a bowel movement that was solid, so that was my immediate notation of change. That same night I ate an all-vegan meal, but the next morning I woke up and still had a headache (so I decided to wait before I took my next daily dose) and by noon I felt really tired so I took a nap. When I woke up, I immediately went to the restroom and had a BM. When I tell you that was the best BM I ever had, I felt the relief as it was happening, I could smell the toxins coming out and my headache lifted so quickly. I jumped in the shower and got dressed took my next dose and my gut hasn't felt this normal or looked flat in a long time. This is only after 2 days of taking it, I am on my 4th day, no more headaches and I feel so refreshed and energetic. I will repost if anything changes, but for now, I give 4 stars.

Healed my badly torn fissure in one week!

By Nizar N., California, Verified Reviewer

I have dealt with incomplete bowel movements since I was a kid. I'm 31 now, athletic build, all around quite healthy but over time the constipation wore me down and out.

I lost not only my energy but I lost my life. My days began to revolve around my bowel movements and the shape I would be in mentally and physically when I finally left the bathroom.

It got to the point where I was never on time for anything. Many times the psychological defeat was too much and I gave up on ever leaving the house that day so I lay up in bed depressed.

If I sucked it up and went out anyway the discomfort and anxiety accompanied with the constant urge to go and never being complete, would likely inhibit any pleasant experience from partaking.

Then of course in about 6-8 hours max I would need to be back in the bathroom and surely I could not use a public stall and be granted the slightest relief. It would need to be my bathroom.

My activity became extremely limited. I eventually lost the energy to put up with it and dreaded having a bowel movement so much that started pinching my cheeks until it subsided.

Realize too that I have tried everything else under the sun to relieve this problem to the slightest avail. No matter how seemingly well a movement I might have, it's like my rectum always stores some about a mm. from the exit and it's the most frustrating thing in the world.

Anyways, I have an extremely fast metabolism. I need to go at least once a day but already knowing it won't be a success I gave up trying altogether.

It wasn't so bad at first, I found if I didn't try I could avoid inevitably failing for while. I drank very little liquids and ate much less to delay having a strong bowel movement I could not hold.

But I took it too far. I resisted the urge for 10 days straight and when I went it was the most excruciatingly painful thing I have ever felt.

Literally ripped me apart down there and I bled profusely. The stool stuck at the in now what was an open wound would cause the pain to linger and at times worsen.

I could hardly bare to walk let alone sit. The doctors remedy of laxatives did no good, hard or soft my fissure would hyperextend and retract too strongly, ripping me back open every single time.

Sitz bath and ointments brought temp relief of pain but for 10 months I bled and hurt so badly.

Back in the bathroom and in bed I became stuck. Going through periods of eating a few days and clinching to starving myself for days because that pain is one I simply cannot bare.

Out of nowhere my mother (she got it in hopes of relieving joint pain) brought over a bottle of Total Restore one day and told me to try it.

I honestly thought it a gimmick and scolded her for being so gullible but decided to give it a try after reading the ingredients. I can't say I know anything about having a leaky gut or lectin but one thing I know absolutely is the ungodly pain of the torn fissure.

Then all a sudden, it was less than a week actually, I believe day 3 or 4, without any other types of treatment being done, appearing to be nothing short of a miracle, I went number 2 with no pain at all and no blood.

Total Restore is, what these pills did about my torn fissure, and I am so grateful and thankful for this, you have no idea. Words can't describe how awful of a pain that was and for it to be healed in a few days, what was unable to heal in almost a year, is proof to me that this stuff really does work.

Now I'm no doctor or medically educated in any fashion, but I think it's safe to assume the fissure is considered part of the gut. If not it can't be far off.

Whereas a puncture somewhere in the gut may be harder to diagnose and attribute to any issues you might be having, a fissure tear is visible and the pain spot easy to locate.

So because of this, I'm led to believe it does seem to work. Been on it two weeks now and I feel so much better. My bowel movements, unfortunately, are still incomplete, but compared to the fissure tear this issue something I can learn to live with.

My mother says the pills thus far have given her regularity. She feels no reduction in joint pain which either means she does not have a leaky gut, or pills need more time to work in her case.

So basically unless you're somehow certain you have leaky gut taking these pills expecting to relieve any symptoms sounds like a shot in the dark.

Whatever you do I hope you find help and relief in something and you remain in good health always.

P.S. If anyone has recommendations on how to relieve my incomplete movement problems, please let me know.

Thanks!

Btw, we bought ours on Amazon, much cheaper!

Happily amazed

By Justin E., Long Beach, CA, Verified Reviewer

I hardly know where to start. I initially bought Dr. Gundry's Total Restore after stumbling across some of his videos on Pinterest, and realizing that I was suffering from just about all of the "Leaky Gut" symptoms.

I had horrible eating habits and was constantly suffering from sinus issues, headaches, very high blood pressure, and my asthma symptoms were flaring up more and more, with bronchitis occasionally making an appearance as well.

When I received my bottles, I hadn't even ordered The Plant Paradox yet, and simply decided to adjust my diet according to the worst offenders on his list. Even though I have never been diagnosed with celiac's disease, I decided to cut out gluten, along with sugar, tomatoes, and potatoes. I started Googling just about everything before I ate it, to see if it contained lectins, and attempted to stay away from them as much as I could, but by no means would I say that I was actually ON the Plant Paradox diet.

I started to notice changes almost immediately. The headaches were one of the first things to go, followed closely by the sinus and breathing issues. Lack of energy and body aches and pains were also significantly reduced, but I work a lot of hours and do a lot of heavy lifting, so those aren't going to go away completely any time soon.

I just started my second bottle, and have now received the book, which I will be using to make further adjustments to my diet. I have lost a total of 32 pounds so far and felt compelled to give my third bottle to a friend when they saw how fit I was becoming. They wanted to know what I was doing.

Now I realize that there are claims out there that contradict Dr. Gundry's research, and state that there is nothing wrong with lectins, gluten (unless you have celiac's), and moderate sugar consumption (unless you have diabetes). But just like every topic under the sun, you will find people on both sides of the issue that will tell you why the other side is wrong.

For me, the truth is simple. I was in very poor health before making these changes and taking the supplement, and now I'm not. I don't need any more proof than that.

So there's absolutely no question that I would recommend both, Total Restore and The Plant Paradox to anyone who will listen. I simply tell them to try a bottle, make a few changes to their diet while they do, and see what happens. If nothing changes, what have they lost, 30 days of eating a little healthier than usual? There are worse things you could do to yourself.

But I firmly believe that anyone who gives this stuff an honest shot will see definite, positive changes.

Too soon to tell.

By Linda T., Minnesota, Verified Reviewer

I have severe Diverticulosis. No one knows what causes the pouches to form. Therefore they don't know what to do about it. I am seeking my own answers. So far so good regarding having a flare-up of diverticulitis. The last flare-up was August 1, 2018. So time is the teller of if, when, or what.
