I have heard good feedback from some as well. It looks like a knock-off of Xymogen's Nrf2 Activator, as similar but not identical ingredients, and seems to be targeting the same thing. A little hyped but probably a decent product anyway.
Whatever the reason, I energy test good, off and on, for the Xymogen product. But the Protandim has so far always tested as not for me.

The person I know who has been using it for a while said that he has never felt better and it has affected his mental state also. I figured I might as well give it a try...

I went to the NY opthal. you mention, really liked her, but ultimately I was turned off by how strongly she pushes these supplements. I was spending over $2500/yr just on HER supplements. I stopped. If you look at the Protandim ingredients, you will see curcumin and Co-Q10 and a few other things. I think curcumin is good, but you can buy it online alot cheaper.
Beware anyone who tries to get you to sign-up for automatic monthly delivery via credit card. Just try and get that STOPPED and it's a HUGE hassle.

Just a general comment on getting the ingredients of things separately. I think this can work sometimes, but not always. Like I said, I do not use Protandim, but I do use Nrf2 Activator, which is similar in intent and has some similar ingredients (but not all) to Protandim.
Nrf2 Activator has 5 ingredients, and at certain points in time, I have energy tested each of the separate ingredients in different products and tested that they would be not helpful. Some of these were even products that I had used in the past and had energy tested as very good for me. But, at that time, I also energy tested that Nrf2 Activator was good and helpful for me, and it did help. So, I do believe the combination of ingredients can matter. Please do not think you can always get the benefits of a formula by just taking a couple of the ingredients. You might in some cases, but not always.

Many times I have energy tested poorly for certain supplements that I took anyway and I felt better from them.
For some energy testing is a fact a certainty, but in reality it is merely a tool that has some use for some people at some times with some products. j
