Life Extension Reviews

I have been a customer of life extension products for several years. I recently requested testing results for a product that I was using. It actually delineated and quantified several tests and criteria and gave me the results for heavy metals contaminants etc. It took a few days maybe 1 week to get the results. I have no reason to doubt the validity. The results were excellent. I rate this company extremely high.

During the past 10 - 15 years I have ordered from Life Extension many times. Surprisingly, I have never rated their service nor their products. I have never seen any rating system on their website. I have always found their products of the highest quality and affordability. I have not always ordered from them, but only when I find a product that appeals to me. But I have had no problems with any product nor the quality of any product which I have ordered.

I have been a member of Life Extension for many many years. One of the reasons why I’m a member besides their supplement is the blood test you can get from them, which I did, and it saved my life. A doctor from the Life Extension staff called me and told me I better see a urologist because what the blood test told them there’s a strong possibility I have cancer. I did see a urologist, and I went through 43 days of radiation. I’m still alive 10 years later because of Life Extension. Thank you Life Extension.

I have been a customer of Life Extension since 2010.

Shortly after my semi-retired life, I experienced numerous problems relating to being a type 2 diabetic. I wanted to see the latest research in glucose reduction, arthritis coping, etc. I used the Life Labs testing and gained valuable results. The quality of my health improved the most from taking the coffee, alpha lipo acid, B supplements and definitely Vit D level 2000.

I never thought they promised anything more than a doctor, simply because doctors look at hormones in a broader sense. But from a preventative point of view, they offer many things that I would recommend. In fact, recently a neighbor mentioned that they will be undergoing a grueling knee operation and I referred the company just to access the anti-inflammatory products to look into before and after surgery.

For what you spend, you get some pretty good deals, and the only reason I stopped reading their magazines is because they tend to repeat a lot of the research info, so it needs to be slightly more broader than lots of info on curcumin, aka turmeric!

My diabetes numbers were greatly improved by using the companies services and products, and there are results anyone with diligence and willpower can most definitely achieve.

I am 83 years old and my late boyfriend introduced me to the Life Extension products and I have been taking them for around 6 years now. My doctors are all amazed at my good health for my age, which pleases me. I plan to stay with their products even though they are quite high priced, but the free shipping and the quarterly magazine are a bonus to me!

The only product I could not keep taking was their multi-vitamin product; it made my stomach irritated, so gave the rest to a friend to try.

I would highly recommend their products to my friends and relatives and have done so.

I've been using Life Extension products for over 15 years and have been blessed with the quality products. I am confident that they are the best you can get. I've also consulted the physician advisor, with good results. In some cases, the benefits of LEF supplements have been startling. My husband took Cognitex after suffering stroke damage, and his brain function noticeably improved. I was suffering from dry eyes, but after increasing my omega 3's and adding maqui berry, I no longer needed eye drops and have no more discomfort. I am in pretty good health for my age, and I credit LEF with much of that. I also enjoy the journal that comes with membership--the scientific articles are well-referenced and valid. I have never had a problem with late shipments either. I highly recommend this company. They provide a valuable service.

I used this product for 60 days. I watched what I ate, did everything right and...stuff is a scam! Cost me money to not get any results. Zip, none, not an ounce! I had to learn the hard way not to trust online scams.

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

These people take forever to ship my products. Still, I have not received my last order for over two weeks now. This was the same the last time I ordered from them. I doubt I will order again.

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

I have been using LEF products for years. They are excellent and effective. I known of health practitioners who have verified independently, the pharmaceutical grade of 95% or higher as consistent. They have been most helpful with advice as well as openness to suggestions. I will continue to use them and recommend them to others.

I follow many of the laboratory reviews of the products from several companies and I always come up with the best of products produced by Life Extension. You can use Consumer Labs for some of their results on their investigations. I have taken these products since they first began in the early '80s before they became Life Extension and when Durk and Sandy were doing their crazy experiments. I continued during the time they were a pyramid company. I only wish now that I had been able to participate in their pyramid but I didn't because I could afford it. And I was working so much I didn't have time to try to sponsor anyone else. Since then I have been using their products and wouldn't do without them. I began in about 1983, or thereabouts, and have continued since then and am now 82 years young.

I have been using LEF for many years. Their supplements are blended using the latest research findings and I find them to be the leader at bringing better formulations to market first. Their two-per-day multi is superior to all multivitamins I've extensively researched. Even better, their blood tests are the most significant deal for me. Their prices are very reasonable and now that I have insurance, LEF's full price is still cheaper for me than the 20% I'd have to pay for them through insurance! When I tell people, they don't believe it's possible but they use the same labs and I've always gotten my results earlier than promised. I have had consistently good customer service from them as well. Thanks LEF - for your commitment to excellence!

A long satisfied LE customer. But, if purchasing their TABLETS formulation, look out. Their tablets tend to often be too hard and too large to swallow even for a man over six feet, healthy, and with no swallowing problems. I consume other company's TABLETS (most of which are smaller) and never experience the near swallowing trauma as I do with Life Extension TABLETS.

I have been using LEF products since I was first introduced to the company in 1990. If I'm in a pinch, I'll go with NOW brand. Purity and combinations are their main focus, so you know they have researched extensively. Just read one of their magazines. Every source is cited. I learned about COQ10 from them in 1990, 10 years before cardiologists even started considering it. They are WAY ahead of the game and a great company to deal with.

I was using Brolico as an immune system enhancer, taking the directed, 3 a day. When I was threatened with a cold, I would up my dose to 6 or 9 pills a day, and I successfully avoided getting sick. Brolico is a little expensive, however, so I saw this product and thought I could use it in the same way. I began taking the directed one a day, and I had some tummy rumblings. When I started to get a cold, I upped the dose to 3 and I had explosive diarrhea, so I took it down to 2 a day and still had issues. Obviously, this product won't work for me as an immune system defense.

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

Impressed with footnote studies backing up articles in the magazine. Always pleasant fast service and shipping.

Used many products over the past 10 years, for sure 2/day multivitamin is better (feel better) than standard multi (use caps; tabs are big and stinky).

Have gotten good counsel from Doctors on my specific health issues.

This review is strictly about a recent customer service experience with a supervisor named Pablo. It concerns lab tests only, not products. Other reps have been okay, but lack either knowledge or authority to finalize some decisions about refunds.

LEF offers a variety of discounts at different times, so that when one orders tests and subsequently cancels them, or substitutes different test, the calculations of refunds becomes a major effort there.

I had to be transferred to this supervisor after a long wait. After a long discussion, we arrived at a suitable credit of some $101 which could not be refunded via PayPal in total.

Today, I called to order tests and make use of that refund, but they only had about $77 listed instead of $101. Eventually, Pablo came to the phone and denied the entire previous conversation, said he had no recollection of it and no recording of it. In effect, he was calling me a liar, as they are supposed to record all such calls.

This company wants to sacrifice customer goodwill AND future business over a trivial sum that will be dwarfed by future lost business with me, and maybe with others as a result of this review. That is just stupidity. Stay away, buy your tests someplace else even if it costs more.

Length of Use: 2+ years

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

Do not purchase their tests if you live in New York! There is nowhere that can draw your blood and customer service will repeatedly send you to places that refuse to do it. A giant waste of time - better go somewhere else.
