Reviews

Catherine
I have asthma. Recently, I took calcium chloride intravenously, but there was no improvement, I choked while walking. I accidentally remembered how children constantly prescribed calcium gluconate. I bought it, I ate one pill yesterday, and today, I suddenly felt that there was no shortness of breath. For some reason, the doctors did not register it for me, although I have osteoporosis and nails exfoliate for several years. I'll try to drink a month, maybe there will be an improvement.
