Natural Factors PGX Daily Singles ($15.99 on Amazon, the cheapest price)

Note These Contraindications:

• PGX can slow the rate of absorption of medications, so it is recommended to take any oral medications 1 hour before PGX Daily Singles or 2 to 3 hours after.
• Diabetics must monitor their blood sugar and adjust their medication accordingly as the PGX helps to control blood sugar and it may lessen the need for medications or insulin over time. Consult a health care practitioner prior to use.
• Consult with your health care practitioner prior to taking PGX if on any medication.
