Does Anyone Take Cellgevity?

A myRAteam Member asked a question 💭
Weeki Wachee, FL

I was recently spammed to try to sell me on a product call Cellgevity. I did some research and everything looks legit so I am trying it. ( but not purchased from the spammer). It is supposed to decrease antioxidants by adding nutrients that help the cells produce a substance that reduces free radicals. It is a bit pricey. If it works, I can maybe stop a couple of the supplements I currently use. The Amazon reviews are almost all glowing. One seller had a rating of 4.6 out of 5

Members responded to a question about Cellgevity, a supplement marketed to reduce free radicals, with most saying they had never heard of it and expressing skepticism about unregulated supplements that lack FDA approval or rigorous clinical trials. Several members shared their experiences with collagen peptides instead, noting improvements in hair health and overall results, while one medical provider cautioned that supplements can interact negatively with RA medications and emphasized the importance of consulting with doctors before adding anything new. The original poster later reported that after trying Cellgevity for several weeks, it made no noticeable difference and recommended focusing on diet and lifestyle changes instead of expensive supplements.

Be careful. Supplements are not regulated in the USA and sometimes do not contain the ingredients listed or carry contaminants. They can also interact negatively with the drugs you might be taking. Look at Drugs.com.-interactions.

So, the verdict is that it is not making any noticeable difference. But I must add that it is supposed to undo some of the damage to our cells that free radicals and other harmful substances can do. In my case, I may not notice the difference because my diet and lifestyle are quite healthful. I do plan to lose a little more weight and get to a target of 25% BMI. I've lost about 40lbs so this final 20 shouldn't be too difficult. I will use up my cellgevity at one cap per day just because it's paid for and wasn't cheap.
My advice. Skip the Cellgevity and make the necessary lifestyle and dietary changes instead🤍💛.

As a medical provider, I am always skeptical of claims for wonder supplements. I want randomized, double blind research studies with thousands of participants!

My doc pulled me off all my supplements except fish oil, Co Q10, Vit D and calcium. Yes that means no NAIDS, and probiotics. He doesn't want unregulated substances to compete or interact with the medications he recommended.

To be clear, cellgevity is a suppliment. I have no plans to quit MTX unless I can't tolerate it or it stops working. I will cut back on other supplements, some of which are included in cellgevity, If the trial warrants. If'll keep ya'll posted.🤍💛.
