Lot's of good info
July 5, 2019

While I do not agree with Dr Mercola on every issue, no one agrees on everything. For the most part he is right on target. Use the info to form an educated opinion, instead of substituting someone else's opinion for your own.

Doctor MERCOLA is just as much of a censor as the he so calls conspiracy censors he throw rocks at. He hosts videos of known convicted misinformation spreaders. He threatens to ban you if you message him disagreeing with his long drawn out, withholding key information until you read miles of his junk, formatting of information hook he dangles bits of to get you interested in the answer or cure. Than try's to sell you his pills. He's a bigot.

Buyer beware! This guarantee is unsatisfactory when you have to pay for shipping + fuel Surcharge. Supervisors/customer service is obnoxious and take it or leave policy. For all the flowery description of the supplement, not all work and every individual is unique!

I purchased pans from theem with a lifetime guarantee. Three of the six items broke within 2 years so I reached out for replacements and they said they no longer carry the product so they can't do anything but offer a store credit. I asked for a refund... because why would i want to purchase from a site that doesn't hold to its promises? They are refusing. The customer service team has not been helpful and they really don't seem to be trying to help me even though it was a LIFETIME guarantee. I'm really disappointed and don't feel confident at all purchasing from them again. I have recommended this site to friends and family in the past but now I'm telling them it's a terrible brand.

Informative
March 26, 2017

There's so much to read and lots of insight. It's easy to go on a reading loop. Unlike some sites that give abrupt one liners, the information is detailed and interesting. It's important to remember that nothing is black and white and that information is constantly evolving. Appreciating a different perspective with an open mind is true education.

I was amazed by the approach of this company toward consumers. I had some questions before I bought here some goods, I asked everything and got a quick respond from customer support manager. He seemed to me pretty polite and responsive, because he described me everything in details and I made a purchase. The stuff came pretty quick and it was the fastest delivery I have ever faced. I wish I didn't know about this company before, because I got used to buy goods online in the past.

Some people expect perfection from Mercola in healthcare while demanding so little of it from Big Pharma, Big Medicine and the Big Gov't. I have a serious cancer, and the drugs alone for are so expensive I could easily go bankrupt, plus suffer permanent health damage, plus not be even close to being cured. I have personally tried much of what Mercola offers. Is it perfect, no? Have I benefited from it? Yes, at 1/100th the expense, nd the cancer for now held at bay.

What a total fake. I've been using the iodine supplement for some time and didn't see much benefit. I switched to another iodine supplement, and I am shocked at the difference for the better. No wonder why you can't write a review or look at reviews for that matter on the Mercola website. At least I couldn't find it, so I emailed them. I can't believe the amount of money I have been throwing away.
Their loss. I can't post a photo of the bottle bc I threw it away. But I posted a picture of another product by Mercola as proof I was buying their products.

Complete Nonsense
July 19, 2017

Avoid this site at all cost, unless you want a good laugh (though spreading fear and misinformation is hardly funny). Nothing Joseph Mercola writes should be trusted. Simply put this website will praise everything natural as a cure all and demonize everything else. Conveniently, there is a store on the website where you can buy all the wonderful natural products touted on the sites various "educational" articles.

Mercola customer service does not stand behind products. I purchased deodorant from their company. The deodorant container did not work. The turn mechanism did not move no matter what I did. I called Mercola and they were well aware of the problem but said sorry, we can't help you. Prior to this, I received deodorant that had expired. Mercola does not stand by it's products.

Dr. Mercola is a wonderful man and has helped heal hundreds of thousands of people around the world with only healthy lifestyle changes & strategies! His vast knowledge and expertise is even more apparent when you see how healthy he is, because he does exactly what he preaches. Do not believe any "Trolls" leaving negative comments/reviews. Do not believe Google or Mass-Media propaganda, designed to keep you sick and dependent on pharma! Dr. Mercola is being bullied, censored and attacked for spreading the word on healthy foods and vitamins! This is obviously a crime, right? And yes, he does produce top of the line products, suppliments... that is his job and his passion. My personal health and the health of my family has never been better since we started implimenting Dr. Mercola's strategies. Thank you Doctor!

AVOID Opening his Emails
October 24, 2019

I've always appreciated his information on health matters, so had never suspected his emails to harbour any viruses, however I finally clued in & figured it out. EVERY time that I open up Dr Mercola's emails, I get a fraud phone call from *******462 within 10 seconds saying that, "your credit card has been used this morning"... I was nearly fooled the first time, but hung up and called my bank. They said never listen to any call claiming that, just hang up immediately. Sometimes they call from *******100. Somehow Dr Mercola's website must be linked to scammers. I only get these calls IMMEDIATELY AFTER opening up his email and going into his website. WARNING: Be cautious.

I have been receiving Dr. Mercola emails for 11 years (since 2008). I have archived hundreds and hundreds of these articles. His articles have helped me to be knowledgeable concerning many health matters. I have adjusted my own lifestyle through what I have learned from his posts, and am so much the better for it.
I have naturally lowered my blood pressure. Today I went to my naturopathic doctor, and he commented that I am one of the healthiest people that have come into their office (it is a large office with 4 doctors and numerous staff). I credit much of this to what I have learned from Dr. Mercola.
In fact, I think God that I just feel good all of the time. I am 62 years old and in excellent health.
Not everything I read of Dr. Mercola's posts do I take for myself. As with any author, anything that we read we are to evaluate based on our own understanding. But I can say that most of what Dr. Mercola writes I agree with. His articles are well researched and well written, and many times it is another expert that he interviews, so his coverage is quite broad.

Love Everything so far
February 26, 2023

We take natural supplements, and many are from Dr Mercola. Their natural food products are also excellent. They wrap their dark glass bottles SO WELL. But I sent 2 gifts of olive oil tins to my daighters, as well as getting a tin for ourselves, and ALL 3 ARRIVED DENTED IN SEVERAL PLACES! I realize this is due to rough handling in transit, but please use your great bubble wrap generously next time, instead of just 1 piece if crumpled kraft paper! Thanks for everything!

He is not always right, but he does his research and present information that mainstream science often supports (albeit 10 years later). He is on the cutting edge of nutrition and fitness.

I volunteer in in organization in Israel called chasdei amram that does home care for corona patients. The advice that I read on the Mercola site has been a big asset and I am certain that we saved many lives from his advice. We give as early as possible quercetin, zinc, liposomal vitamin C, vitamin D, NAC, and Magnesium and to some patients nebulized H2O2 with fantastic results. Almost all (from thousands of patients) have had amazing recoveries.

Fantastic website
December 17, 2014

Fantastic website - packed full of health info - loved the articles on the healthiest cooking oils - thank you so much! I now only use coconut oil to fry. And I love the daily tweets with the latest articles. My new found health has made all the difference to my energy levels - you are what you eat! Thanks Dr Mecola.

While many of his products are good and some of his studies good - he has an obvious political PRO TRUMP, Pro-Republican bias which is coming out in some of his articles in his Newsletter (ie endorsed Hydroxychloroquine and now it has been shown to be useless). Now minimizing COVID19 stating the curve is flattened when hospitals in Texas and Florida are overwhelmed. His daily newsletter articles regarding the COVID19 virus seem to mirror what the news cycle on the right is saying. NEEDS TO KEEP POLITICS OUT OF HIS HEALTH ADVICE.

Dr. Mercola has no reason to lead reader astray. His products seem top notch and they are "Made in the USA" not in China or India.
