Genexa Kids Calm Keeper, Stress Relief Made Clean, 60 Chewable Tablets

This works!!!! This is the first supplement we try. I researched a few options and this had the ingredients I felt most comfortable giving my 8yo. We use other products from this brand. We struggle with school anxiety and noise/sensory sensitivity. My 8yo cries often before school through out the day and complains often of an upset stomach - due to nerves. We do 2 tablets 30-45min before school and the tears have decreased before school tremendously. We are one week in and the teacher said no crying at all during the day. She is now able to talk through her struggles versus crying and shutting down. She has not complained of a tummy ache since she started these. We had a school music program - she got stage fright the last program and had a meltdown. We did 2 tablets 1 hour before this program and she performed great and was smiling and enjoying herself. We only do 2 before school. We don’t need them any other times. This dose seems to be sufficient. I tried a dose and didn’t feel a difference but I don’t get anxious. I thought it could be placebo effect but my 8yo shares they help her think and relax. She also said she doesn’t feel her stomach wonky during school. The taste is a little chalky and light lavender taste. She doesn’t like them but knows they help so she chews them quick with water. I hope they help other kids bc we have tried everything short of RX meds for her school and separation anxiety. I feel this had made a huge difference for us in just a week.

This is great. My super ADHD daughter is set for a eval soon, but we really needed something to help ease her hyperactivity in school. Plus, we cant put her stimulants (recovering addiction issues in household) and we know firsthand how aweful they can be. * Mind you- we really also watch her sugar intake, and God forbid she have ANY sort of caffeine or soda, so this is not a factor in behavior. I also have 2 other children who are not like this. So parenting/disciplining, or lack there-of, is also not a factor* :) --- Her background behavior for reference-- I know each child is different, but maybe it will help comparing. -- Teachers say each year around January, that she is struggling.. falling behind because she doesn't pay attention, so thus, she doesn't remember learning words, directions etc (she is in Kindergarten now) Usually she catches back up by the end of the school year. but she was having "time outs" every day for yelling, not sitting, not listening, talking, crawling under bathroom stalls, etc etc etc. That's just her.. the girl literally cant stand still when she is telling me something. Always moving, dancing, twirling, falling down.. you get the idea. Falling off of her chair at the dinner table and school was not uncommon. Taking her to events or shopping is a completely nightmare in itself. This Genexa- well, at first, we were like.. hmm... she seems a tad bit more calm... hmmm.. ooh, there's a bit of craziness... and then some more calm.. and more calm"er" more often. We noticed she plays or focuses on something much longer. Usually she will color for 15 mins, TOPS- but after the pills- One night she spent an hour coloring! I had her at a basketball tourney, she was watching a movie on her portable dvd player (because the girl will NOT calmly watch her sister play bball) and she watched that movie 3 times. It used to be that 1 time at most was the norm prior. So we noticed this change. Grandma also noticed at an event how she was able to focus longer on a task. Then we forgot a day. Just completely forgot to give them to her, O.M.G. I must have forgotten what life was like 2 weeks ago with out them. Holy $hit. Crazy town in our house, yelling, bullying the sister, unruly, stubborn, and all that fun stuff I had conveniently forgotten about within the last 2 weeks. After that evening, we were sold. I even paid rush shipping on my last order because we were going to run out. Teacher commented that this seems to "take her down a level" and we agree. She is still not a docile, parent-minding child, I mean, come on, this is no miracle pill here. She still is a "Strong-willed" kid, but this seems to take her from a red-bull energy level, down to that of an excited 5 year old instead. It's a breath of fresh air for us. I only wish they had larger bulk sizes. $15 for 60 pills dosage is 2 every 6 hours.. 2 in morning, the teacher gives her 2 at lunch. We skip the evening dose and just deal with her hyperactivity that starts to come back a bit around 6/7pm, since she goes to bed at 8 anyway. But this bottle only lasts us 15 days. I looked but didn't see that the manufacturer made larger quantity bottles, or I could buy a case. LOL.

I have a five-year-old son who is acting completely out of control at school (throwing books, hitting, running the halls, etc.) -- but only at school! He's (for the most part) mellow at home, at my office (where I have to take him after he gets suspended for his behavior), at his recreational sports, basically anywhere else but school. To be clear, I say "for the most part" because he is five and he will occasionally throw a temper tantrum from time to time. He's also not a complete nightmare at school. He does have good days and the front office staff seem to think he walks on water. Any ways, we started taking him to see a counselor who told us our son is very intelligent but manipulative and is behaving poorly at school on purpose, most likely so he can leave the classroom (she ruled out ADD/ADHD, autism, and defiance disorders). However, his teacher describes him as "out of control" during his outbursts. We've tried grounding him, taking away his favorite items, and (gasp!) even spanking him but he still acts out at school. So, I decided to try these to see if they'd help during school. For the first few days, they did seem to make a difference but then I noticed they seemed to be making things worse. I'd give them to him in the morning, right before dropping him off, and I'd get reports from his teacher that he had a "rough morning" almost every day (but he'd act better in the afternoon). I had also started to notice that, if I gave them to him earlier in the morning, he would become very hyper for about an hour, then mellow out. So, I stopped giving them to him altogether. The other day, he was throwing a temper tantrum at the house and I gave these to him -- and he did mellow out pretty quickly. So, long story short, my opinion on these is that, yes, they work but only during an outburst. They're not preventative, in my opinion.

My son is on the Autism Spectrum (Asperger's) as well as has ODD and ADHD (Impulsive type). He is currently 9 years old. We have been on SO MANY prescription medications and nothing has really helped so far. He has some pretty aggressive and violent "episodes" that have actually caused harm to not only himself, but also me and my parents (who help me with him.) While this product is not some miracle "cure-all", it HAS helped reduced the frequency of his episodes. I don't think we will ever find anything that will "cure" him of the episodes, but it has defiantly helped make them less frequent and less extreme. I will say make sure you give it WITHOUT other medications. I don't know if it was a fluke or actually related, but he was a bit irritable before bed so I decided to give him a dose of this on top of his prescription night medications and about 15-20 mins after said dose he EXPLODED in one of his worse episodes he has had. It took myself, my mom and brother to try to calm him down and he was very violent for a good 20 mins or so. I haven't done that again and haven't seen that reaction again so that is why I am thinking it reacted weirdly with his prescriptions. He doesn't mind the flavor at all and takes it easily. But he's also been taking pills since he was only 3 so he very, very rarely fights me on taking a medication/chewable. I will probably update this again in another month. I did do the subscribe and save because I wanted to give it at least a couple months before I decide fully if this is a "WIN" or a "Lose" on this product. I am guarded, but hopeful that he continues to do good with it.

My son started taking these about 2 weeks ago. I will say that when I first purchased them I was a little skeptical, as I have purchased many things to help with his anxiety and ADD and nothing has helped, or he hasn't liked to take things. But THIS he enjoys the flavor and takes them twice a day. He teacher, my parents (who have him after school) and we have seen a huge difference in him. He was always a SUPER SENSITIVE kid. He always thought that when he was told no about something that he had done something to get into trouble. Not anymore. When we tell him no about something now, it's like.... Ok.... and then he moves on to something else. When asking his teacher about how he has been able to focus and how he is reacting to this "vitamin"ish suppliment, he told me that he is doing things on his own that he hasn't done all year, he seems happy and has been handling stressful situations well. He is able to focus (specifically on Math) better and seems bouncy...... This is a kid that has told me ALL YEAR that he hates school and doesn't want to go anymore. He is in 2nd grade! So.......... This has been a LIFE SAVER for my son and I'm so happy I was able to find him something that works so quickly and that is a medication.

So, I really wanted to like this product. It's natural and had some really good reviews. However, my personal experience when my son took it was AWFUL, and I feel like I need to make this review just as a public service announcement. My son has some conditions that lead to him having difficulties focusing and controlling his impulses. Through a combination of diet, meditation and therapy, I had been able to make lots of progress, but he was still struggling a bit and I wanted to try and give him all the advantages I can, so I thought I'd try this to help him focus. The first two days were okay and I thought there was even a little improvement, though I noticed he was exhausted in the evening. I chalked this up to him "focusing" so much and being attentive; I told myself it would pass. Boy howdy, did it. Over the next 10 days my son spiraled out of control with more and more impulse control issues. This led to him receiving five referrals in 10 days. (To put that in perspective, he had two in the first seven months of school.) I feel like an idiot, because it took me 10 full days of this behavior to realize it was the Genexa. I stopped him taking it immediately, and we haven't had any discipline issues since. Further, both myself and his father, as well as his teacher have seen night and day improvements since we stopped. I am really happy that this product works for some children, but for my child it made things worse, and set us back months of progress. It was really disappointing. If you're reading this it may still be worth a try, but know that this can happen. If it does, I hope you catch it faster than I did.

My 5-yr-old made it through the first couple days of kindergarten without much fuss, if at all. Then, the next Monday, a complete meltdown at the bus stop. Nightmares, tantrums, pleading/begging, withdrawal, stomachaches and refusals to eat...it was an overwhelming few days for both of us. Having two older children who skipped happily off into schooling left me unprepared and shocked at the sudden change in my youngest child's behavior. Guidance and the pediatrician were good at offering some suggestions, but they were really tactics I was already using, such as preparing the night before, reading books about kindergarten, reward systems, plenty of sleep, meditation and prayer. Every "expert" kept saying it was normal. But physically restraining my child to get a seatbelt on, dropping him off in a front office and running while he screamed for help just wasn't sitting right with me as normal. I knew instinctively at the root of his resistance, anger, and sadness was Fear. As an adult, I've self medicated with herbal teas, over the counter vitamins designed to help cope with stress, probiotics to support a healthy gut, and had good results. Why not offer a child a gentle way to reduce anxiety? Late one evening after a particularly hard day, I came across this product. Nervous to give a supplement to my child, I researched the listed ingredients, crossed my fingers and ordered for overnight delivery. After three days of taking this product, my son is still nervous, but he calms down much faster and his teacher reports the last two days were fantastic. I did tell him they were vitamins that would help make him feel less scared, and I recognize this may have helped, too. But I can see him displaying less subconscious anxious behaviors and his nightmares (which he never remembered anyway the next day) have completely stopped. I believe this supplement has helped tremendously alongside multiple other strategies to reducing stress and anxiety. Getting a personal email from the owner of the company inquiring how my child was doing cemented my satisfaction that this is a wonderful option for us frazzled, frustrated and out of options parents.

have to say, I’m genuinely impressed. My wife has been giving this to our six-year-old daughter, and the difference has been unbelievable. She usually gets very nervous and restless, especially at the dentist, but this time she was calm, relaxed, and so much easier to handle. We’ve noticed that she’s overall less hyper and more settled throughout the day. Nothing else we’ve tried has helped this way. Whatever is in here just seems to work beautifully for her. We’re honestly grateful to have found something gentle, natural, and effective that helps her stay calm when she needs it most. Highly recommend for parents looking for extra support for a sensitive or high-energy child.

This is my third bottle of Genexa. I purchased my first 2 at the pharmacy. I was very impressed with the product. I give it to my youngest daughter (8) so she can sleep deeply and relieve her anxiety (1/2 to 1 pill) . When given 30 minutes before going to bed on a school week, she wakes up rested. My other daughter (13) takes 2 pills before going to bed. I give her Genexa only when she has exams the next day. She wakes up rested but also, she doesn't feel tired or drained. I am extremely satisfied with the product.

Oh my gosh, all I can say is a giant THANK YOU to whoever made this stuff!!! I had literally a 2 year old from hell. He would whine and cry over literally everything and nothing...it was awful, I even suffered excrutiating migraines because of the constant and endless crying. After giving him this, he doesnt cry or whine anymore, hes like a whole new child, its bloody amazing. A complete 360. I SOO highly recommend. On top of how amazing it is, it's also all natural!!

Wasn't the best product for us. The product doesn't seem to help my son during the day we didn't see diferrence but seem to help him on his bad nights.

This product taste good, like vanilla. My son like eating them each day. The founder of the product is very friendly. They contacted me personally to thank them for punching there product and sent me a sweet picture of the newest addition to there team. However I feel the product didn't do much for my child as my child has ADHD with sensory processing disorder and autism and I was hoping to find a more natural alternative for the summer while he is off his ritalin. I encourage anyone else to give this product a try for a child while is a bit more on the hyper side.

My kids love the taste! It really helped them to settle down for the night they also had a more restful sleep we only used it once so far. I use to use quietude now we are definitely switching to Genexa from now on.
