GNC Mega Men Prostate & Virility Review – The Bottom Line
We have mixed reviews of GNC Mega Men Prostate & Virility. First the positives; we liked that shipping is free for all purchases within the U.S., and that there are discounts if you buy one bottle, you can get 50% off a second bottle. If you subscribe to a recurring shipment, you get 10% off your first order. Pricewise, you get a 45 day supply of capsules for $24.99 which seems quite good value. There is a limited 30 day return policy. But we also have some less positive comments. In terms of dosage instructions, they do not specify if you should spread the dosage out over the course of the day and if there is a preferred time of day that you should take the capsules. The ingredient list is very long and yet unclear if the ingredients can provide actual benefits to help with your specific prostate issues. For example although it contains 1600 IU of vitamin D, this might not be high enough since the Vitamin D Council recommends that people take 5,000 IU daily. The return policy is short at 30 days which does not allow you enough time to try the product and see if it works for you. It only includes the option to return unopened bottles of capsules and there are extra charges for shipping and handling. We suggest you try to find a prostate supplement with a better guarantee, and clearer dosage information.
