Should this supplement have a nasty smell and make me sick to the stomach? I've used it in the past and loved the results but this bottle smells bad!

Mine smell very badly (and I didn't order them online - bought them at a health food store) and they also make me nauseous if I take them on an empty stomach. I've had other supplements that smell badly, as well, so I personally don't think it's anything out of the ordinary.

I have not noticed a smell or had any problems with feeling sick to my stomach I would return any remaining pills and ask for a replacement if I were you.

Your issues don't sound that out of the ordinary. I've been using this product for months. Always the same results. Pills smell like low tide at the beach. Slight nausea when taken on an empty stomach. Which results in horrendously smelly burps. Like I've just eaten sushi made out of cat food. But overall, the positive physiological results outweigh the negative psychological results that come from getting dirty looks on the bus in the morning. I know the instructions say to take them on an empty stomach, but I haven't noticed any kind of decrease in efficacy if/when I take them with food. So, do whatever works best for you.

Well, Its smell isnt anything to brag on. What I do before ever ordering any supplements of any kind is my homework, (RESEARCH) each ingredient and any side effects or interactions it may have with any and all other perscription and non-prescription products included in my daily diet.

I would send it back and ask them to replace it, but call first. I just smelled mine and I wouldn't call it good smelling either....

I am a retired truck driver, which does not make me an authority on medicine, but I certainly do understand something about some smells. Items that are transported close to the floor of the truck and above the axles can possibly pick up a burnt asbestos-type of smell. I had forgotten all about that but recently ordered some mason jars that arrived stinky. Since then I give each delivered item a little quick sniff.I don't know if it makes me feel any better about it or not. It makes me think of eating fish and hoping that the mercury levels are acceptable and Pollyanishlly wanting to believe that the toxic stuff is not accumulating.

I completely agree about the smell, I find it repulsive. I mixed 2 drops of rosemary oil into 1 ounce of the cleanser today, and it definitely helped.

If by "get rid of", you mean add its bleach like odor to the smell of sweat and B.O... Honestly, I stopped spraying it because it was so disgusting to me. Maybe someone else who has used it for the purpose you are describing should jump in.

It doesn't sound like it. I have never noticed an odor using this product. When I smell the odor in the bottle, it smells very light. I am sorry that you have had a bad experience with it.

Hi Scott, I am not qualified to recommend how anyone else uses this supplement. I know a cancer survivor who used it for a while. I use it daily and plan to do so until I don't feel I need it. I researched it made my own decision. I tapered up until I felt my system was getting enough. Diarrhea is how some people determine they have enough. I feel that it is very helpful to me. I do take it on an empty stomach. No issues with long-term use that I have read about. Best wishes, Lynne

It's been a while but no, I do not remember any smell from this. I have a few other supps my shelf that smell horrible, but no, not this one. Does it have something from the sea? Usually that makes for a strong odor. Let me know if you notice a difference. I feel a lot better but tried so many supps & foods that I can't be sure of the reason I feel better. I am trying a new one now as even though I feel better I still have that creaking in my right knee. It doesn't hurt but that sound scares me.

Hello: While I found the shampoo acceptable except for the smell, your query sent me looking. Not only does the on-label URL take one to an err page, there is scant data on-line about the company LEMARIE USA LLC and whosis provided a very creepy page which I'll give you the URL for http://whois.domaintools.com/lemarie-usa.com

For the multiple B complex stink up the closet you must be taking the cap off. That's a silly thing to do because you'd loose some of the potency. Neither of my B vitamins stink up anything, but there is an unpleasant odor. As soon as I take my vitamins the smell is gone. Good luck to you.

Yes, in my experience it tastes and smells absolutely terrible. Best of luck!

When I smell the bottle it has an odor, but the capsule doesn't. I have never opened a capsule. The bottle should have a date on the bottom. I have been using them for a couple of years probably, and have never had a problem.

Absolutely. I was knocked out recently during the day, my daughter sprays near my sleeping area. I swear, I woke up from the smell, absolutely disgusted. I laughed of course, but it is hella potent. It will make those with weak stomachs likely hurl.

It's funny the box says to take 2 tablets, but when I do that I can't sleep, so I just take 1 and it works very well. They do smell awful. Can you imagine what it must be like working in their factory? I would be sick everyday...haha!

I honestly believe it does smell pretty bad. At first it seems as if it is a strong peanut butter-like odor, but than it gets to be a very strong odor that made me feel like I wanted to throw up, it was almost garbage-like. It didn't work for me, but seeing how you already ordered it, you should try it on your face and if you can stand the odor either, just return it or pass it on to someone who can stand the smell.

Yes, it does smell fishy because that's what's in there, but I swallow them too fast to be bothered by any aftertaste. It wouldn't bother me anyway; it's a great supplement!

I just spoke with the Westinghouse customer service (E-mail: customerservice@saihomeproducts.com Telephone: 1-866-365-5339). I described this smell as rather a motor oil-like (this is what it reminds me). They say it's normal for the first cycles :-) It's a glue that holds the parts together and it gets burned initially. The explanation makes sense to me, so I will give it a try. No plans to drink this water, though, until the smell (and the taste) goes away. The idea was to drink pure water, not diluted glue :-)

I love your name! I am sorry I cannot help...already used the bottle and tossed it. Very good question! It did work well but had an ammonia smell at the very beginning. I will try to google it now :)
