Stress & Anxiety
FEMALE, WEB DESIGNER
"As a business owner, with a large family and busy life - I was really 'spread thin' and feeling overwhelmed just getting through the daily necessities.
Stress and ongoing sleep interruption/deprivation is still a main trigger for me in the sudden onset of panic attacks and anxiety episodes. A friend recommended I give Voluntastrols a try.
WOW.
ONE week later, sleep improved – and it’s only been an upward spiral from there… a good catch-22
Two weeks later, feeling balanced, creative and energetic once more.
Really good quality sleep means I wake up feeling rested. My busy life and workload haven’t changed, my outlook and energy levels certainly have.
No anxiety, no panic attacks. Gone.
I feel balanced, for the first time in a LONG time. I’m just happier. Thank you’
Stroke Recovery
MATT & AMANDA
Matt, a gentleman in Nelson, New Zealand, started writing a blog after his wife Amanda suffered a stroke in February 2017.

‘Dear Dr C,
I have observed some gains in the 3 months that M has been taking Voluntastrols. Within 2 weeks of starting, I noticed that his sense of humour was returning, he began teasing us more like he did before his stroke.
He also seemed to be more aware of his environment. He began asking questions like “Why are you changing the sheets on Saturday rather than Friday?”
Within 3 weeks, he was making a few more sound to letter connections; the sound “da” is the letter “D”.
M returned to speech therapy at the University of NC at Greensboro 2 months after starting Voluntastrols.
The professor that he has been working with commented on a number of improvements that she saw after a 3 month break. They include:
• an appropriate sense of humour
• more clarity of speech
• more words in his sentences
• more normal rate of speech
• improved reading
• more spontaneous social communication
• better ability to filter out background distractions
• and better ability to cue himself to find a word when he struggles with it
Thank you for thinking of us with this supplement.
Sincerely, Mrs M’ (Testimonial written by patient’s wife to their prescribing doctor in USA.)

Chronic Fatigue
41yo MALE, SUPPORT WORKER

Diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue at 38 years
By 2016 my energy was very low and seemed on a gradual downward trend, leading to not being able to work and barley function, eventually being diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue. Symptoms ranging from joint pain, muscle aches, headaches, depression and general fatigue were all back again.
Natural approaches didn’t seem to touch the sides and out of frustration I started back on a mild steroid which got me back on my feet and back to work. Familiar side effects returned and soon became intolerable. After weaning off the steroid my energy went back downhill and I was once again too tired to work or function properly.
This is the time, about 12 months ago, when I was introduced to Voluntastrols.
My experience has been completely positive.
After around 3 weeks, I started feeling a difference in my energy - the best I can describe it is that I still had fatigue but there was something brewing in my body, the dull muscle aches were starting to reduce and a feeling of immune support was shaping. I just felt like my body was starting to learn to support itself.
After 2 months I was back at work part-time and could manage everyday life energy outputs with much more ease and with no side effects.
So after 12 months on Voluntastrols I’m working almost full time hours again and have returned to my passion of surfing and enjoying life.
It’s important for me to be clear and to not exaggerate the benefits. My body has been through a lot and I understand there is residual virus and symptoms that can, and do, pop up from time to time, but I can say with certainty that Voluntastrols have aided my recovery and given my body tools to support itself and maintain energy for daily needs.
I attended a chronic fatigue / Fibromyalgia conference last year where I met dozens of fatigue sufferers with very similar health backgrounds eg glandular fever, cancers, chronic fatigue. I would have no hesitation in recommending Voluntastrols as a natural alternative to what we mostly are prescribed eg pain medication and steroids, which myself and the people I met at the conference all had horrible side effects from.
Not only do Voluntastrols work and work well, but they also have no side effects that I’ve experienced.

Menopausal Symptoms
58yo FEMALE, OFFICE MANAGER
Started Voluntastrols because of a drop in general concentration and energy levels, attributed to menopause.
After 3 weeks
‘increased concentration levels’
‘an improvement in my mood and general happiness’
After 3 months
‘Since I was unsure if the improvement was purely due to taking Voluntastrols, I stopped taking them for a few weeks. On recommencing, once again the boost in my mood was apparent. My experiences of feeling “flat” disappeared, to be replaced with a feeling of positivity and happiness.’
‘Voluntastrols make an enormous difference’
