Brite Eyes III is a very excellent product for dry eyes and for helping to clear cataracts. However, it will not help "hyper-mature" cataracts, i.e., cataracts that have been completely mature (dense and opaque) for very long. Also, they may or may not work in dogs, depending on the type of cataract. Ordinary, age-related cataracts are much easier to clear than genetic "juvenile" cataracts, although the drops do seem to help hold the line in most of these cases, with diligence on the part of the owner. A diet rich in fresh, brightly-colored vegetables and fruits and dark, leafy greens helps also (for people and dogs). For the person complaining about the bottle: these bottles are not meant to have the tips cut off. There is a plastic sleeve around the neck of the bottle under the cap. Remove the cap, slip off the sleeve and discard and screw the cap on securely. A sharp point in the tip of the cap puntures the tip of the bottle, making a hole the correct size for dispensing.

I love this sweetener, but it does have a coupld of small drawbacks: 1) You'll need to use a whisk or blender to disolve it in cold foods or cold liquids and 2) The fiber in it will give you some intestinal gas if you use very much of it. It has great flavor and a good price, though.

This is a wonderful product. It has a very mild sweet flavor like very light brown sugar. It is granulated like white sugar and very convenient to use. It disolves well in hot or cold drinks. The price is prohibitive, though.

This is the best stevia product that I have tried - and I have tried a lot! It disolves well even in cold drinks and doesn't have an overpowering stevia after-taste. It's also a great price.

This is my favorite flavor of LaraBar and the Tart Cherry one is my second favorite. I love the fact that they are simple and raw.
