Has anyone used Prokarin for MS?

[Diva1976]

Stumbled across it after reading about Tao Patch.

Do you have the patch? I’m going to google this other thing, ty.

[Diva1976 in reply to kdali]

I do not have but seriously considering. The Tao patch is cheaper if it’s true that prokarin is around $200 a month vs Tao Patch $249 and it supposedly last 2 years. Both products not FDA approved but prokarin has ingredients where doctors can write prescription. At least this is what I gathered from reading. YW

I’m excited to hear about whichever you choose!

Ok, I’m back. I wouldn’t take it because of the histamine part myself, and I don’t have asthma, but I’d rather not pile on something else for my body to deal with....but 10 years ago it may have been awesome. Are you going to try it and let us know if it helps?!

[Diva1976 in reply to kdali]

I definitely will let you all know

[Diva1976 in reply to Diva1976]

TaoPatch didn’t work for me. Tried it for two weeks. My pain nor mobility changed while using. Sending back tomorrow for refund.

Neither Tao Patch nor Prokarin do anything at all except fill up the bank accounts of the vendors of the products and there is no proper evidence that they will do anything for MS. Prokarin could perhaps give people a boost because of the caffeine content, but a few strong cups of coffee will probably do the same thing a whole lot cheaper. High consumption of caffeine by any means tends to result in nasty caffeine withdrawal headaches if caffeine intake is reduced (as anyone who tried to reduce their coffee consumption can tell you!)

As for the Tao Patch - it belongs in the same garbage bin as Cayce's Battery and the Healy “Bioresonance” Device.

"Only a few very poorly written studies that claim to show how improvements were found when people wear Taopatch, but when searching for information about the researchers, you end up discovering that many of the supposed authors do not appear to exist."

So, don't waste you money on these sorts of quackery, or if your wallet really is too heavy and you desperately need to make it lighter then donate your $$$ to legitimate MS research instead of sending it to peddlers of fake medicine.

[Diva1976 in reply to Frances_B]

Yes I found that to be true when looking up the scientists that suppose to be behind Taopatch. Not too much info and it’s as though these people don’t exist. Still out of desperation I decided to try. I will update to let you all know if it did anything when I receive or if I will be returning. I know acupuncture itself is helpful on a consistent basis. But with Covid I’ve learned to stay in and come out when need be for things. We do have a lot things in work for MS eventually in terms of research. Therefore, I look forward to something helping us all who is still struggling with this auto immune disease.

So, you looked it up for yourself, and discovered that there is basically no evidence to back up the claims for the Taopatch, but your're still going to blow a heap of money to try it out???? You'd most likely get a lot more benefit out of spending the same amount of money on exercise physiology sessions or an MS Gym membership........

[Diva1976 in reply to Frances_B]

You’re right with exercise. One minute I’m consistent the next I’m not. The one thing I looked at is if I see no difference in 90 days you are guaranteed to get your money back. And I was sure to use PayPal to make sure to hold this company to refund. Therefore, I don’t feel I’m throwing money away.

[Diva1976 in reply to Frances_B]

Thanks for these articles. Very interesting and knowledgeable. Never had heard of quakewatch.

[Diva1976 in reply to Frances_B]

You was absolutely correct!!! It did absolutely nothing! It was no need for me to waste the energy of applying the patch when it made no difference the first two weeks. Sending back for refund!

[Frances_B in reply to Diva1976]

Please keep everyone posted on whether they stick to their "Money back guarantee" promise or whether they try to wriggle out of it...........
