RezBlock /Cranberry Extract

Tweak said:

I concur. It's possibly more concentrated.

After just one day use of RezBlock, the next day my water has lost some of the red color and looks cloudy. Not so with Nature's Answer, the water is still dark red and clear after three days.

I also noticed that the water is not clouding up....

thanks fulvic...somehow I missed your review and was waiting to hear from you as well. Nice find and thanks for testing it...off to order some myself!

EDIT: Just got two bottles from swanson health products for $20 total including shipping.

Any way to buy that Nature's Answer Cranberry Extract in Europe ? I always felt like my cheap powder was good for the price but the quality is average, without much information on the product, I have been searching for something else for a long time.

Just took a couple days w/o cranberry, and beeeh, its getting nasty ! I did not missed that vape poop.

If you found a place to buy it in Europe let me know Roger!

Perfect timing. I have maybe a day or two most with my RezBlock left. Any downsides to the NA version of Rezblock? I want to give it a try as well, but might as well pickup 2 or 3 at $6.75 a bottle.

Amazon UK got some but expensive, the shipping alone costs the equivalent of two bottles. I'm going to try and find a better deal

I found this, but with the shipping to Spain is 21€ for one bottle, too much IMHO

Natures Answer Cranberry Extract - £8.29

Shipping to Europe - £8.50

Better ! I'm going to dig deeper

Maybe it's a better price buying out directly from the US. When you look at the rate of euro for dollar vs pound.

I think too that with the exchange $/€ we will have a better deal if we found a shop with a cheap shipment in US.

I'm commin to London, Id be happy to trade a few bottles of extract for a vape session or two Or three... PM me

Thanks for the advice in this thread. I went with the Nature's Answer as well and am very impressed with the results.

My girlfriend still likes to combust and the piece she uses for that gets so gross nearly instantly. With the Nature's Answer has kept anything from really getting caked on.

My vape pieces have stayed cleaner as well but I wasn't as concerned with that.

I know it's probably been said numerous times, but what is the recommended ratio of drops to ml of water used? Also, I suppose there really isn't any harm in using too much at any given time, correct? I ordered the Nature's Answer thanks to you clever scientists and am looking forward to reducing my cleaning from about 3 times a day to maybe just 1 or 2.

I vape (Cloud) and combust throughout the day and I literally never do either unless the glass is sparkling clean and looking/smelling/tasting brand new. Makes me laugh at you guys who think you're OCD when you only clean your glass once every day or so ... it's a good habit to have tho!

Now if only there was a way to keep a 14/18mm slide sparkling clean for longer than 2-3 bowls ...

My bottle of Nature's Answer Cranberry Extract arrived last night . . .The bottom line is Nature's Answer Cranberry Extract works just as well if not better than RezBlock for our applications.

Fulvic, you seemed very impressed after one evening of use, do things still fare well?

International shipping rates are crazy on theses "health" websites.. Some look attractive then add huge supplements at the last moment. What a rip off. I asked my glass blower if he can order from amazon and include 4 bottles with my new pieces in the upcoming shipment. That should keep the overall cost low.

What else is there to report? I think it's already pretty clear, but I can clarify further.

1. Nature's Answer is FDA registered. Many of their extracts are made for human consumption which are required by law to include a label indicating the volume and strength. RezBlock does not advertise, label or indicate the volume or strength of their product, as it is not for human consumption.

2. In fact, Nature's Answer is more concentrated, the difference is visible. I use 20% less Nature's Answer than I did with RezBlock. You'd be hard pressed to even find a competing extract company with their level of experience and transparency combined with the value and strength of their products. Although they categorize themselves as "Herbicides/Wholesale Farm Supplies" 420 Science is more of a novelty company than anything.

3. The price difference is the biggest selling point. I've covered this one pretty well already, but I can do better. Imagine two bottles both with same volume of 50 drops but different concentrations. Bottle 1 requires four drops per use while Bottle 2 requires five. That would give Bottle 1 a use lifespan of 12.5 uses. Bottle 2 comes up 20% short with 10 uses.

Now consider the fact that a bottle of Nature's Answer Cranberry Extract is actually 840 drops per bottle and RezBlock is 420 drops per bottle (what a coincidence ). Assuming you change your water once daily at four drops per use, one bottle of Nature's Answer will last over six months while one bottle of RezBlock won't last even three months.

Nature's Answer
840 drops per bottle, four drops per use, 210 uses for $6.50 (shipping incl.) or $.03 per use.
@$6.50/30 mL = $22.61 spent over two years

RezBlock
420 drops per bottle, five drops per use, 84 uses for $12.95 (shipping incl.) or $.15 per use.
@12.95/15 mL = $112.61 spent over two years

Nature's Answer > RezBlock

I also reiterated the differences yesterday. If you buy RezBlock over Nature's Answer (at these prices) you're almost literally being robbed. The cranberry extract is working just as well today as it was two weeks ago.

Thanks fulvic...that's the magic sentence right there!

awesome discoveries here!!!! so for US customers.... who do you think has the best deal going right now??

Fulvic,

Is there a life to these bottles from Nature's Answer? If I wanted to stock up with 3 or 4 bottle, will they be as efficacious a year or so from now. You never know when a company might decide to pull a product...though...with your research for us now, they may start to see a spike in sales over the months ahead.

So, I decided to shop Amazon for the NA cranberry extract...

...found a good deal as an "add on" item (like, $8 a bottle)... so, I added one to an order of books. It's being shipped separately. *chuckle*

I can also subscribe to it and get a discount that way. Not sure how often I would need a bottle, yet, so I've not gone that route.

Cranberry extract has been around for years, and this company's been in business since '72. I wouldn't worry about it. And any mainstream article, print or web, on the benefits of Cranberries, would make for more of a boost in sales than any forum talk about keeping bongs clean.

This is the best price I've found, and free shipping is available with a couple of options. I ordered a couple of bottles and picked up another item to qualify.

Nice find, Max.

Looks like I'll be picking up some of this very soon...

These forum's have both saved and cost me a lot of money

Betcha the balance leans more towards costing money than saving...

Yes it is T-dub. I was just showing my GF this thread and she goes "Wow, thats a great deal. You should get it" Her and I are soulmates

I finally ordered my bottle on Amazon. It is 6 weeks to ship out. *sigh* I am upset at myself for not ordering this a few days ago under subscribe and save when I could to save even more. I plan to try to time all my S&S items every 3 months so that I can get 20% off everything
