I ordered pine oil it had very faint smell. I have faithfully used Now products for 15 years. As I am on Chemotherapy and have other health issues. I did the paper towel test it did not dry completely and it had a oily residue left which showed it was cut. Left email no response called the Midwest office ghastly customer service they refused to Replace or Refund. If I could I would leave a - 10 star. Please leave Now now. You can try Aura Cacia, Guru Nanda, or Whole foods house brand . With our pennies being squeezed blue no one should pay for lies & deceit. Sincerely, Never Again!

I purchased NOW brand Selenium
I purchased NOW brand Selenium. Mixed in the container were 5 tablets that didn't belong. I contacted the company. At first they said they would send a courier to pick up the bottle to see what the other items were, now they're just ghosting me. I guess they don't care about quality control.
Pretty disappointed since I have no idea if the bottle tampered with or if it was cross contamination at the factory. Either way not a good situation.

Stay safe and shop elsewhere!
Purchased HMB from this company and it caused severe gastro issues. I notified them and it took 4 days to get to speak with someone. No apologies, no refund discussed, just excuses. Garbage company, garbage products. I specifically told them that the money wasn't as important as letting them know that they are selling this HMB crap that can and is hurting people and my intentions are to spare someone else from what I have gone through. They should not be able to get a good night's sleep for the way they treat people.

Do not trust this company
Do not trust this company or any products they sell as they are not what they are and have wrong labels and wrong types from powders being crystals and mislabeled and they have no accountability to consumer which NOW CONSUMERS NEED TO MAKE FACELESS GIANT CORPORATIONS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR INDIFFERENCE TO THE PROBLEMS THEY CAUSE CUSTOMERS

NOW uses Chinese poison ingredients
NOW vitamins obtains their ingredients from China. On their bottles they state: "Manufactured for NOW FOODS" They didn't tell us who manufacturers NOW products. NOW doesn't deny this.
They also cast some blame on Amazon for selling NOW vitamins with Chinese ingredients.
I have MS, their vitamins are dangerous! I'm keeping a few bottles of various vitamins and sending them to the health department.
Remember, NOW vitamins knows the dangers of using Chinese ingredients, but they didn't seem to care. Money, money...
I've personally banned all NOW vitamins after reading a few specific lies, one stating that no one can have any vitamin C, unless they get it from China. Do a search on that, find out NOW Lies! Possibly look to Source Naturals, or other REAL REPUTABLE vitamin companies. Beware of NOW's ethically reckless practices, it's your health and life at risk when taking a pill made up of ingredients from China, then repackages them in Bloomingdale, Illinois. I'm disgusted NOW vitamins is allowed to sell any vitamins, knowing they use Chinese ingredients and lie about Chinese ingredients being the only way to get Vitamin C.
Apparently few to no ingredients are from America, bottle reads "Globally Sourced ingredients", but do a search, specifically asking if their ingredients are from China. Ridiculous! Lock up the poisoner's, beware of NOW. They're poisoning the USA!

Never buy Now Foods products — Unsafe practices and horrible consumer support
Horrific company. I have med several email attempts to different addresses in their site regarding safety issues with their products. No answer. That’s not what you want from a company selling health products.

Jeg har købt Magnesium malat fra Now…
Jeg har købt Magnesium malat fra Now Food på 1000 mg. Bruger Magnesium malat i flere år men har køber fra andre producenter. Den her fungerer slet ikke og nu når jeg nærlæser ingridienser stå det slet ikke hvor kommer udtræk af de aktive stof til malate. Spild af pengene og meget utrykt at spise det. Så tænker man , hvad er der mon i dem så
