GelStat Migraine-Review
Product Claims of GelStat
Our GelStat Migraine review unpacks the product claims and ingredients to offer consumers insights when buying this product. Migraine sufferers know only too well the catastrophic and frustrating consequences of buying a pharmaceutical or natural remedy that provides little or no relief.
GelStat Migraine is taken as an under-the-tongue (sublingual) administered homeopathic liquid treatment for migraines and excruciating headaches. There are patents belonging to the manufacturer.
The manufacturer claims its product provides best-in-industry-class results with regard to the rate of absorption into the body, formulation, and results. As the liquid is dispensed under the tongue, this is cited as the basis for the claim that GelStat is incorporated into the bloodstream quickly.
The manufacturer puts the following promise to users: quick, inexpensive relief from pain with no side effects, thanks to safe and quality homeopathic ingredients.
Ingredients
- Feverfew
- Ginger
- Ascorbic acid
- Glycerin
- Maltodextrin (MSG)
- Potassium Sorbate
- Purified water
- Silicon Dioxide
- Sorbitol
- Xanthan gum
The product may be homeopathic but it cannot be all natural due to the inclusion of MSG. Maltodextrin (MSG) is classified as safe but remains controversial. It is commonly used as a cheap preservative and binding agent. It is similar to sugar, has a high glycaemic index and has been linked to obesity and heart disease when consumed in large amounts.
A good mix of compounds that cumulatively limits mental stress, the onset of headaches, prevents hypertension and also detoxifies the blood. The factors informing every migraine sufferer’s onset pattern is different so it is hard to predict with accuracy what the exact general scope of the GelStat synthesis is. Also, the exact formulation of ingredient amounts are not easily obtainable, in our research.
It is important to note that maltodextrin and potassium sorbate can, in fact, trigger headaches. The individual response will, therefore, vary, not least according to how well the manufacturer has balanced potential triggers with pain inhibitors. Silicone dioxide is a diuretic and should not be taken in conjunction with other pills. Long-term intake can lead to kidney damage due to its diuretic nature as a worst-case scenario.
Dosage Instructions
The convenient, measured, single-dose dispenser applies. Take one dose under the tongue at the beginning of a migraine. Hold for 1 minute before swallowing. Take dose 2 within 5 minutes, and doe 3 30 minutes later as required.
Cost and Guarantee
You can purchase one pack of 4 dispensers online for $9.95, 8 for $15.99 and 12 for $44.75.
The product is potentially not inexpensive if, for example, 3 doses are required to treat an intense migraine. The 4-pack dispenser would then treat 1 migraine, not 2.
We could not find evidence of any guarantees.
Summary Of Our GelStat Review
This sublingual remedy provides a good improvement of symptoms for some migraine sufferers and none at all according to consumer feedback. Some complain that the relief is only temporary and that increased dosages are required to feel any results.
The product in our estimation could provide a good source of pain relief, but this is offset by the formulation which, in fact, contains two migraine triggers (see Ingredients). The sublingual delivery is innovative and could potentially lead to swift relief.
Despite the manufacturer claims to the contrary, our research shows that possible side effects include the urge to urinate more often and potential sugar spikes. The potential for long-term kidney damage also exists (see Ingredients). Give the product a try as it is new, but change to one with a comprehensive guarantee should there be no results.
