Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've had some ongoing issues with sleep (insomnia, waking mid-night, exhaustion yet unable to sleep), stubborn weight (despite healthy eating and exercise) and high-stress levels. I have a history of diabetes that runs in my family and was hoping to support my body in this area before it became a major problem. After doing some research I decided to try some herbal support and after searching for a variety of supplements I settled on this one. To be fair, I also ordered two other supplements from the same company (cortisol health and thyroid support) and began taking them at the same time. I take the Cortisol health (along with Iodine and probiotics) at night and the insulin and thyroid support in the morning (along with some extra Vit. D and magnesium.) Because I started several new products at one time I have a difficult time attributing anything miraculous to just one, however, after about a month of taking this I can say a few things: -After one night of adding the Cortisol health to my nightly routine, I had the best sleep I've gotten in years. Between the three mixes, I find that I sleep longer, deeper, wake more rested and feel more energy through the day. -Since adding the three LES Labs mixes (Cortisol, Insulin, and Thyroid) I lost 7 lbs, a triumph after 4 months of intentional healthy eating and exercise with no results. -I generally take it once a day before either breakfast or lunch. I feel as though my blood sugar levels are more stable. I'm considering taking it before each meal (the serving suggestion is 1-3 times a day) to see if that has any noticeable benefit. -My sister said that she notices an appetite suppressant effect when taken before meals. In summary, I do highly recommend this supplement as a piece of the puzzle of health. Most people with insulin resistance also have issues elsewhere (cortisol and thyroid among others). It helps to understand how these issues are connected and address them as a whole. Unless you're a type 1 Diabetic, insulin health is greatly impacted by diet and exercise. This won't replace that. However, I did find that my body needed a little extra support and with that, the healthy lifestyle I was living worked a lot better. These aren't the type of issues that go away overnight or even with one bottle. It took years for my body to get off balance and I expect it will be a journey back to full health, but this product is part of that for me.
