Fresh Breath, Great Sex, All in One Little Pill!
It promised to ramp up my love life! What could possibly go wrong?

I saw this amazing advert for Dental Probiotics by Pro-B Fresh, on my MSN news feed. These little tablets allegedly freshen your breath, thereby improving your love life, giving you confidence, and changing your world. They’re the stuff of miracles, so the advert would have you believe.
I was skeptical. The advert made me cringe. The style was very looong, cheesy and American. My suspicious British mind thought it looked dodgy as hell.
Meanwhile, Doris from down the road was allegedly buying them, along with half of England — according to the pop up boxes, designed to make me think they’re running out of stock.
I was finally swung by the claim that this magical patented formula could clear a coated tongue and give you a wonderful mouth to die for, so I took a punt.
Anyway, paid the obligatory £14 and got an error message. Had I been duped? I checked my Paypal account. The payment hadn’t gone through, so I tried again — success!
It took two weeks for the product to arrive in the UK. Nowhere did it say it was being shipped from the States! I was relieved that I’d only ordered one pot because a bigger order would have resulted in substantial import taxes.
Excited about the imminent improvements to my love life, I unpacked the box, only to find it had reached its expiry date two weeks earlier. Outrageous!
I send an email of complaint, asking for an in-date replacement or my money back. Their ‘award-winning’ customer service team ignored me. Twice.
So I contacted the returns department instead and they issued a refund promptly, which seemed odd. Didn’t they have any ‘in date’ product?
I used the expired product anyway. I was ready for my fabulous new life.
The tablets tasted pleasantly minty, which was nice while I sucked them. But that was it.
They did nothing to clear my coated tongue or deal with my irritating halitosis. The tablets made no difference at all.
So sorry about that. It’s not magical at all.
My sex life remains sad and uneventful.
That’s my review.
On the upside, it didn’t cost me anything.
