Customer Reviews of STAY ALERT Military Caffeine Energy Gum - CINNAMON - TRAY (24 packs 5pc) - 100mg Caffeine per pieceCustomer Review: worried about health consequences
I have been using this product for over two years now. I think it is ok, and I plan to continue buying it, although not as often as I thought I would when I first came across it. But people should probably be aware of one concerning issue I found since the early days: after chowing a total of 2-4 per days during 2-3 days in a row my tongue becomes full of painful little white bumps. If I don't stop right then, the problem worsens and it just doesn't give up. It gets increasingly painful if I don't give it a break until it goes away, usually after 3-5 days. I contacted the manufacturer two years ago, asking about this problem. I wanted to know if they were aware of it or of similar complaints by other users. I asked them if they have performed studies showing it is not harmful (I did not ask them to show proof that the product is healthy or even effective, just NOT harmful; according to FDA regulations, over-the-counter products may not be effective but there is nothing they can do about it because there is just no regulation regarding effectiveness of supplements and vitamins; however, the FDA will remove the product from the shelves if there is proof of negative side effects on human health). Unfortunately, I never got a feedback from the company, despite an initial email they sent me saying they were going to get back to me asap. After realizing that they were not going to contact me I told them that I was going to contact the FDA, just to put a little pressure, but I never got feedback. I have not yet contacted the FDA, because I am lazy and don't have much time, and I will probably give the company one more chance to answer my concerns before I get serious on this issue. I think it's important to put my complain officially on the record. I have currently no idea what the long-term consequences of this thrush-like reaction on my tongue is. I asked my dentist and he had no idea either; I went to my doctor thinking it may be fungus-related, and he told me he never saw anything like it, but it definitely was not fungus or a thrush of any kind. I have of course made many experiments with myself during these two years and demonstrated unequivocally that the problem is related to the use of this product. I just hope it will have no impact on my tongue's health in the long term. Foolish of me for not stopping, but we all have our little vices, I guess. I decided to write this review so other users know of my experience and know they are not alone. (by the way, I noticed many users complaining about the taste of the gum. Well, unless you are a female or a very sensitive male who has not yet been exposed to the realities of life, I cannot see how this can be a complain at all. The idea is to use it to stay alert. The taste is neither good nor bad, and who cares anyways?)
