I take a Senior Women’s Multi vitamin….is it safe to add with the vitamin infused coffee pods? I am also diabetic II
Do you have the actual dosages of each individual VITAMIN somewhere on your website.
A small sample pack would be helpful. Maybe even free samples?
Do you charge my credit card every month ! And what if I don’t like it !
Is it good for people with diabetes .
