"Jim Piersall, 22 year old outfielder for the Boston Red Sox, had a mental breakdown in 1952-one so complete that seven months virtually have vanished from his memory. . . . This account of his experience is a frank and fascinating one."-Chicago Sunday Tribune "The story of a man who became mentally 'sick, ' and how, through competent medical care, the help of a sympathetic and most understanding wife, the patience and encouragement of manager, teammates and fans, and above all his own splendid courage, he made a complete recovery and resumed his baseball career. . . .. How we overcame his fears is a dramatic, heart-warming story."-Library Journal Jim Piersall played baseball in the 1950s and 1960s for the Boston Red Sox, the Cleveland Indians, the Washington Senators, the New York Mets, and the California Angels. After brief forays into professional football and wrestling businesses, he has worked for many years in broadcasting and minor league player development for the Chicago Cubs. He lives in Arizona during the off-season and in Chicago during the season.

Best if you haven't had any real sleep
Works like a charm, I haven't had any real sleep for 13 days and ever since I got this, I finally got the 7 - 10 hour sleep I needed badly. It does make you drowsy and tired and thats what I love about it, this is day 4 of using it and I dont think I'll ever stop lol, the taste is normal like its not bad just bland, easy to swallow lol (thats what she said)

Great!
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
My first impression was that the bottle looks nice. The information is clear and the dosage is easy to find. The pills themselves are slightly bigger than other capsules that I have, but this isn't a bad thing. I didn't find them hard to swallow. The smell is pleasant, which is a huge plus! I love the immunity and antioxidant support, that is exactly what I was looking for! Overall, I am happy with the product, and it has been great so far!

Great for immunity!
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I love elderberry to help my immune system stay strong. I’ve been taking it for years. These pills are easy to swallow and there’s no aftertaste later. I believe they work well since I haven’t caught as much as a sniffle since I started taking them. I would definitely recommend!
