"UME GOLD" . Apparently good for everything, from hair-loss till sweaty feet. Innovation from Korea. (Not made in...). 1'890.-- Baht for 10 sachets a 3 gr. Big discount if you buy 6 boxes.

Also available from Lazada etc. I googled it for more information. All the sites in Thai. Could not find anything in English. My wife tried it. Her skin got all red and itchy.  Now she wants me to try it. Understandably I am not very enthusiastic.  I would be very thankful for more information.

(Just on the side, a good one from my wife: "I am not a garbage can for BS!)

Japanese, rather than Korean I think.

Thank you Oxx. I checked the site you indicated.

Must be an other product with the same name. (TIT)

"Mine" must be a Thai product. All the information about this product is in Thai. Including Facebook and YouTube.

Now I know. The UMEGOLD is made by "Siam Health and Beauty care" in Samut Sakorn. They have a colorful but absolutely useless website, (and no English proof reader).

 

 

A balanced diet and a little exercise is much better than whatever supplement is currently in vogue.  Supplements for specific ailments or dietary deficiencies are all well and good, but when supplements promise to be a cure-all, beware!

Today my wife gave her son a portion of this "good for everything" supplement.

5 minutes after he drank it, he complained about a stomach ache, and then fell down unconscious.

He is in a hospital now.

So you are not going to take yours now I suppose.

That's awful.  I hope he makes a swift and full recovery.

 

Definitely a lesson to be learned from that.
