ARMRA reviews suggest mixed opinions about the product's effectiveness. Some users report improved immune support and allergy relief, indicating that ARMRA may work for specific conditions. However, others find no noticeable health benefits and criticize the brand's customer service and pricing. A key strength is the pleasant taste and variety of flavors, like blood orange and watermelon. A notable weakness is the high cost and poor customer service, including issues with returns and subscriptions. Overall, potential buyers should weigh the benefits against the cost and customer service risks before purchasing ARMRA.

I ordered the immune boosting packets and saw nothing change with my immune system at all. Same allergies causing watering eyes, dry cough, etc. YESTERDAY I pull up my bank account and see that ARMRA has taken it upon themselves to charge me $42 for colostrum THAT I NEVER ORDERED! They have my card info and did this without my permission or knowledge. Then I find out this is a SUBSCRIPTION which was never mentioned in the first order. I call the company only to learn there are NO customer service reps, only automated and the email that is there on their website and was also given to me from the automated voice service DOESN'T EXIST. There is no option to cancel a subscription....how convenient for them. I contracted my bank who is filing it as fraud. BEWARE.

Before I review the actual product, I want to mention that the marketing really bothers me...they market this as a "holy grail" product. I got ads that mentioned "de-aging" and that it would help with my skin, hair, nails, bloating, wrinkles, immunity, digestion and more. Anytime I see something that is marketed to this degree, I'm skeptical and honestly bothered. I bought this for traveling. I travel all over the world for work and traveler's diarrhea is just a common thing you prepare for. One of the best and most effective products I've taken to help with traveler's diarrhea is Diaresq which is...you guessed it...bovine colostrum! I have taken Diaresq for years, but I liked that Armra had a smaller amount that I could take on a daily basis while I'm traveling. I took it for about a week before my trip, during my trip (3-weeks) and 1 week after the trip. What were some things that I noticed? It's impossible to attribute any of these things to Armra specifically (both the good and the bad). The good was: I didn't get sick the whole trip, I had regular bowel movements right from the get-go (which often doesn't happen), and I guess you could say that I had less bloating than normal. The bad was: I did have an upset stomach multiple times while taking this. Not every time, but every so often. As well as stomach pains. I'm not lactose intolerant, so I'm not sure if it was related to this or not. Challenges in using the product: Two things about using the product itself. The first is that the unflavored still does taste like bovine colostrum- so if you're sensitive to taste/smell, if you take this straight, it will bother you. Second, I did try to mix this into my cold beverages, but 1. it doesn't mix well, it gets clumpy and 2. because it's milky, it gives your beverage a weird frothy texture. Okay if you're drinking an iced latte. Really weird/gross if you're drinking a juice or something like that. All in all, I'm not sure if I'll use this again - perhaps for a future trip, but I doubt I will take this on a daily basis.

Best review on here. I just tried it for the first time and had massive cramping within the first few hours. I’m wondering why they pasteurize? I don’t have trouble with raw milk or unpasteurized products.

I took Armra for about 2-3 months, I was feeling good, hair and skin looked good but I didn't particularly associated it with this product. Since it's pretty expensive, I decided not to renew and that's when I realized what colostrum was doing for me. I'm sure results vary from person to person depending how you metabolize ingredients, but in my case, it definitely helps with bloating and hair strength. I just wish it wasn't SO expensive.

I'm finally getting to try this after seeing all the hype around it. It's expensive so I am trying to be consistent with this to try to see if I can correlate any effects. I have the unflavored and will usually add sparkling water and a squeeze of lime or lemon to it. I've been having it almost daily for a couple weeks now and I'm not seeing any negatives but I'm not sure if I'm seeing positives either. However, I did go on a work trip during this time that had a crazy schedule and didn't get much sleep and I never got sick. I normally get sick after I travel, especially if it's stressful. So maybe this played a role in my increased immunity?
Listened to the Skinny Confidential podcast in which they interviewed the founder. Peaked my interest when speaking about immune system. I ordered the vine watermelon sticks. They are amazing for travel, can just toss in your bag. The taste is definitely sour candy like but i just put right in my mouth, don't mix with water. At first it is a little intense, but after time you get used to it. I take two scoops / packets a day and swear by it. I had a great customer experience and have re-ordered 3x now. I have not been sick since starting this product and will continue to use! I work really long hours and travel often for work. I cannot afford to get sick and love taking this product!

As a 1 year follow up - can say that Armra has 100% help keep sickness at bay for me as well as kick up my immunity. Thankful for this product discovery and continue to take every day. I love it so much i still travel with it!
So far I am on this ARMRA regamine. I love the taste, and I can't wait to start seeing the results of this. That was a couple of months ago. Now I can say that ARMRA is spot on when it comes to immune revival. Everyone in my circle has been sick or has caught colds, flu, etc. Not Muah....THANKFULLY I have been strong and resilient. I believe in this product. I treat the powder like gold. I just wish the product was sitting at a better price.

Pricey, please do better...
Kind of conflicted on what to say about this product. I have been using it for over a year now and I'm not sure if I really see any health benefits to it yet. I use 1 scoop a day now (i ised to take 2 scoops but its too expensive to do that) and instructions don't really suggest how much you should take. I do notice thicker fuller hair again but thats about it. When I had tried to reach out to customer service, they said you can drink as much as you like. It is very expensive and I drink the original which is milky for sure. I use a frother to break apart this powder down because it gets very lumpy and weird to drink. I will look for a cheaper and just as effective colostrum in the future. Btw..I started using California gold colostrum....not sure if it's better but I can tell you that my skin looks better. It also clumps but it's ok since it's like 1/4 of the price of Arma.
They do not deserve even 1 star. They are liars and cheats. Read their other reviews. They do not stand up to their written standards. Stole my payment and did not ship to me. I disputed the charge they now do not ship to me at all. They recharged me and still no product. They still say I have an open ticket. LIARS. DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM. Then they say they’re a small company and cannot address your inquiries. But charge you for NOTHING. FRAUDS.

I resisted buying this as I always wait for the hype to die down. I am not a follower of "fads,' and I wait to see what everyone else has to say first. Just how I roll. So, after much research and reading reviews I bought one jar. I take one mouthful scoop per day, for now. It has been one month and I do notice more energy during the day and better sleep without the restlessness. I believe each one has a positive effect on the other. I'll take that as better sleep is important to me. I'm a customer

Caused allergy symptoms and hormone issues. Felt like pms within the first week and it was much too soon for that. Now that I am trying to return unused jar, the website for returns conveniently doesn’t work on different devices (and there is a return window). I had read this before buying. Now I know it’s true. Start small in case you react also bc you likely won’t be able to return.

First and foremost, yes, this product is expensive, BUT: I take two servings (2g) a day and with the container being 120g, it should last me 2 months. Also, it should be noted that their colostrum comes from grass-fed cows, that already is going to make any supplement like this more expensive at the get-go but since that is something I WANT to support, I would rather pay more knowing that the animals this comes from have better lives than most of the horrid dairy industry. Now, my experience in taking this: I have been taking this for a little over 1 month now, I take it every morning, in my Everyday Dose mushroom coffee and some creamer. This is the first thing I have every day and it's on an empty stomach. I have noticed wayyy more energy than before, I feel more, happy? Optimistic? Mood-balanced? I'm not sure what it is, but as someone with anxiety, depression, and ADHD, it's noticeable. I do notice some improvement in my allergies, which are pet and environmental in nature. And I think my skin is looking really good but I'm not sure yet. I haven't noticed anything about my hair or bloating or anything like that, but I expect to see more effects as I remain consistent with taking this for a longer period of time. Overall, I love it and it has been worth it for me, just in the relief i have experienced from my allergies, even though it isn't 100%. I will continue to take this. Finally, i did want to add that I've been taking the Everyday Dose for almost a year now, so I am confident in what effects come from each product based on when I started them. I do wonder if either of them effects the efficacy of the other.
Product-wise, the unflavored colustrum packets are easy to use and basically look like powdered milk. There's some clumping when you mix it into liquid, which is frustrating. I have been taking 2 sticks a day for a week, and have seen and felt no difference in my skin, hair, gut, or overall wellness. Maybe it's too soon? Brand-wise, ARMRA makes some BIG claims. And while they seem to be backed up by science, it's not hard to have an official-looking research paper put together that shows your product off (I read the one they link on their homepage). I found myself questioning whether the collection of colostrum could possibly be ethical, even given ARMRA's statements that the company only works with family farms, grass-fed cows, and "overflow" colostrum. There's a lot of greenwashing in the dairy industry, including "family" farms, and the reality is rarely as pretty as it sounds. I just couldn't bring myself to continue after trying my first box.
After seeing ARMRA ads on Instagram, I decided to give them a try to improve my overall health. I purchased the blood orange flavor and it tastes great! I pop it into 8oz of cold water every morning and don't have any issues drinking it. I've been on it for about a month now, and I will say the one thing I've noticed the most is that my stomach does seem flatter. Additionally, I haven't been getting allergies as frequently. I think I will keep drinking this to see how my body is going to transform.
Armra Colostrum was recommended to me by my acupuncturist and it definitely appears to be the best and most 'branded' Colostrum on the market. I prefer the unflavored individual powder packets and add them to overnight oats, smoothies, anything with a cold liquid-y or milky base. However, it tastes totally fine in water as well. I'm excited to see results over the next few months, but can already tell a difference in my skin and overall digestion.
Tried this product for 3 months, no recognizable help. They added to more subscription, charge for it when I did not order and have no customer service. They just pass it on to someone else. Hard to get out of subscription. NEVER would recommend

This is expensive and they do not offer samples or returns. I bought the hype. $100 later, day 1, discomfort in my belly. Day 2, bloating and pain. Day 3, inflammation, pain, scary guts. Day 4, worse. Day 5, stopped & back to normal in 2 days. I’m fine now. I asked for a refund and was turned away, and I’m unable to in good conscience even give this away, so I’m doing something I’ve never done: leaving a bad review. This fraud company is scamming money. Consider me your canary. Do not buy this product.

Ordered the Performance Revival. I was so excited! Mixed it in with my morning coffee, took my first sip, and gagged. All I can taste is STEVIA. What a way to RUIN a good product. Cocoa and cherry would have been enough to flavor. VERY very disappointed.

I was very excited to try Armra for all of its amazing benefits. I am sensitive to dairy, but most reviews and product information indicated that I might not have any issues. Not true for me. This product messed up my GI system. I tied to get a refund because it wasn’t going to work for me. Be aware their customer service has a stated 8-10 day response time. It took over 8 days to learn their return policy is such that once the product’s safety seal is broken the product may not be return and no money is refunded. If you have any dairy sensitivity DO NOT purchase this product. You’ll be stuck with an expensive product from a company with terrible customer service.
I read all the one star and wanted to post. 3 months and I still have 1/4 jar. I take 1 to 2 scoops daily. Hair fuller, improved mood and digestion as well as more energy. You are NOT supposed to put it in hot beverages so not sure why someone would claim benefits if they are putting it in their mushroom "coffee" . That's just stupid. It tastes great kinda malty. One scoop in mouth...chew a bit and a nice glass of water when you wake. Worth every penny. April 15 2024UPDATE: have now been taking daily since first of year and have NEVER felt better. Hair - noticeably thicker 4real, amazing. Immune System - I am Chief of Staff for 8 restaurants and have NOT been sick all year which is nothing short of miraculous

I had a horrible reaction to this product, was very sick and almost got to ER. While I understand that this might be an individual reaction and might not reflect product quality, the company refusing to refund and is not responding to messages at this point. My doctor said it’s not meant for humans and no one should be taking it. Worst experience I ever had with any product I ever bought - both in terms of quality and customer service.

Curious if you have lactose intolerance. I took it the arm for the first time tonight and within a few hours, I had massive cramping. But then again, I haven’t drank pasteurized milk in about 30 years.
