According to a report that I just read, Frank Shallenberger, the MD of this company who appears in a long ad to sell his product, Advanced Memory formula, has been pulled up and reprimanded several times and his medical licence revoked by the medical board of California before he gave up his practice i =n that state and opened shop in Nevada. There also there have been complaints against him for misdiagnosis and resulting death. The reprimands and revocation of licence were for offences including dishonesty and corruption. It's amazing how this man perseveres with his business despite so many disciplinary proceedings against him. It's upon reading many negative reviews of his company here on Trustpilot that I went and did a search on it. The complaints of buyers of his product seem to be consistent with his history as a medical professional.

What went wrong?! You offered me an excellent blood pressure product and it worked! Then you did a 25% price increase forcing me to look elsewhere. You use an extreme hard sell model that I find an insult to my intelligence. Continuously trying to trap or coerce me into buying more product. I eventually had to fly to Southern China and get the product made there ( at this time you had completely discontinued your blood pressure option). You continue to flood my email daily with up to 3-5 adverts that I cannot unsubscribe to even though I click the unsubscribe button on each new page delivered into my email. Congratulations you have earned my extreme ire and complete contempt. I wish ill to you and your company almost daily because you force me to receive your emails. Whoever does your sales should be drawn and quartered!

Dear Michael, Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback. I want to sincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience you've experienced. I understand how frustrating it can be to have a product discontinued that has worked well for you.

For the inconvenience, we would like to send you a 30-day supply of each, free of charge. A team member will follow up with you directly to confirm your ship to address and provide additional information related to this sample order. We also sincerely apologize for the difficulties you faced unsubscribing from our emails. This is not the experience we want our customers to have.

i give your product only 5 stars other than that a far as the way you conduct business for sales is very misleading back when i signed up to put my order in the page said it was 39 bucks plus shipping ok i was fine with that so i put my order in and went through ck out them prompted me ohh if you buy one at the normal price of 49.00 get another one free and free shipping boy you guys had me hooked so with that i was expecting three bottles after about a week i got my order and only received two bottles but my debit card was billed 39.00 once and billed a second time 59.00 WTH IS THIS???? thats almost 90 bucks i spent with your bate n switch BS i pd full price there was no discount . the only confirmation i got was for 39.00. so with this being said im not a very happy camper . i called you customer service and explained he situation but who ever she was made it look like i was the one at fault ok maybe in your eyes im wrong but thats not what my understanding was if i had it to do all over i certainly would of moved on and went else ware its not my first go round with you people the only reason i came back to you is your product works very well i will give you that but otherwise i got ripped off . dont you have some kind of customer satisfaction policy like many others do? i know this will fall on deaf ears and you dont care other than the taking money from seniors that cant hardly afford you products as it is

The customer service representative told me they changed the formula because they couldn’t keep up with customer demand, yeah just add some ammonia into the mixture that will stretch the product out so they can accommodate more customers that sure makes a lot of sense to me , she said it’s only a slight smell of ammonia but I don’t agree because when I sniffed the container my eyes instantly started tearing and my nose started dripping, I’ve been ordering from these people for three years and will never ever put any of their products inside my body again and you shouldn’t either because ammonia can kill us , stay away from advanced bionutritionals if you value your health and life , God Bless , I also filed a complaint with the FDA and the better business bureau this is so wrong

Dear Mike, Thank you for your message. We apologize for the bad experience you had with our Advanced Aminos. Our supplier used a different form of lysine in this batch. It is 100% safe, but unfortunately has a bad odor. We corrected this immediately. And all future batches contain the original form of lysine without the offending odor. We would like to issue you a full refund. Please send us the email address you ordered under so we can locate the order and send the refund to you right away. Once we have these details, we will expedite your refund. There is no need to send the unused bottles back. Thank you for being a valued customer. We hope you find this resolution satisfactory. Best Regards, Advanced Bionutritionals

I'm SO SAD. I recently ordered a six-bottle Advanced Amino Acid Formula from Advanced Bionutritionals. Excited to take the once-great product, I opened a bottle and almost vomited from the EXTREMELY STRONG AMMONIA SMELL. Being an optimist, I though it was a fluke bottle and attempted to open a second container. The stench was worse, disgusting. Not wanting to give up on the company, I called AB Customer Service (800-791-3395) to report a bad batch. When I spoke with the agent about the situation, she stated "oh we're aware of that." I asked for a shipping label to send the tainted products back, and was told "that's on the customer." Needless to say, I'm sad for the once great company. Hopefully, I'll get a refund when they get to it. I recommend that all the Advanced Amino Acid Formula bottles from Advanced Bionutritionals be recalled immediately. I'm still nauseated.
