Question 1

Is this good for breaking down my foods and for gas?

Accepted Answer

Hi Linda -- I was just passing by this page because I needed to buy some more CellFood.   As others have said, it's primarily an Oxygen supplement.   However, I just wanted you to know of another product (which I have no affiliation with) that is worth your looking at -- especially read the reviews!   It's very possibly what you're looking for regarding 'breaking down your foods and for gas'... and much, much more!   Here it is: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001I7MVG0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage       It's amazing stuff!   Google it.  Blessings and take care.

Question 2

hi! how soon after ingesting the 'cell food' in purified water can you have  tea or wine?

Accepted Answer

If you read the instructions or pamphlet that comes with it, start with 3 drops in 4 oz. of water daily for 1 week.  Then add 1 drop more each week until you're up to 8 drops per week, and continue this max dose each day from there.  It can be taken up to 3x per day for maximum performance.  But beware - it will clean out your system!  Be close to a bathroom for the first week!!!

Question 3

I want to use this to replace lost electrolytes and not drink stuff like Gatorade. Anyone use it for this?

Accepted Answer

We use Key Nutrients Electrolytes! There is just no comparison! My BF even puts a scoop of the lemonade in a couple beers when drinking and NEVER gets leg cramps anymore nor does he ever have that hangover feeling. I don't drink, but I love these. We have the lemonade, orange and peach/mango (my favorite)! I hope this helps your electrolytes problem. I'm also buying the cell food for other benefits. I've heard great things about it.

Question 4

what are the list of ingredients? as I take several other supplements and need to know for dosage purposes. ALSO....what are the expiration dates?

Accepted Answer

From the label on the company's website:  "Cellfood Proprietary Blend 300 mg" - Deionized H2O, Deuterium Sulfate, Catalyst Altered H2O (with Fossilized Organics), Calcified Seaweed (from Lithomamnium Calcareum), Grape Juice, Magnesium Sulfate.

From ConsumerLab.com:  Another concern with CELLFOOD is that it lists deuterium sulfate as the first ingredient in its "proprietary blend." As the other ingredients in the blend are identified as "trace" ingredients (as noted above), a substantial amount of the 328 mg of this blend in each 8 drop serving of CELLFOOD appears to be deuterium sulfate. Another name for deuterium sulfate is sulfuric acid-D2, which may be similar to the sulfuric acid contained in drain cleaners. Deuterium sulfate is listed as a highly corrosive and poisonous material — although the health risk is based on data for sulfuric acid. Even though the instructions indicate that you are supposed to dilute several drops of CELLFOOD in a cup of water, it's disconcerting to think that the product may contain an undisclosed amount of sulfuric acid. (NuScience Corporation has informed ConsumerLab.com that there has never been an adverse reaction report for CELLFOOD, although ConsumerLab.com has not confirmed this with the FDA).

CELLFOOD has also been promoted for improving athletic performance, fibromyalgia, weight loss, cancer, and for general health. There seems to be little evidence supporting these uses. The company cites a small study in women with fibromyalgia which suggests that CELLFOOD might reduce symptoms (Nieddu, Reumatismo 2007).  However, due to poor study quality, these findings are not very reliable. The company also cites test tube studies showing that CELLFOOD has antioxidant properties in different types of cells (Ferrero, J Physiol Pharmacol 2011; Benedetti, Food Chem Toxicol 2011).  Unfortunately, antioxidant effects on cells in laboratories don't necessarily translate into beneficial effects in humans.

In August, 2013, the U.S. retailer of CELLFOOD (Lumina Health Products) was warned by the U.S. FDA  about drug claims it made in marketing CELLFOOD, as well as for violations of Good Manufacturing Practices in its handling of CELLFOOD. (Lumina Health Foods has informed ConsumerLab.com that re-inspection by the FDA one month later found the alleged violations to have been corrected, although ConsumerLab.com has not confirmed this with the FDA.)

It is worth noting that the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has cited companies for marketing oxygen-containing supplements for treating cancer, heart disease, and others (Federal Trade Commission 2000), although CELLFOOD has not been a subject of these actions.

The Bottom Line:
There appears to be no reliable evidence that CELLFOOD is beneficial for any use.
