I don't have any experience with either of those supplements.
What are you trying to accomplish? Do you have Fibro? edit to add... I will say that if you have vascular headache, polyphenols might make it worse. Red wine is one trigger for some migraine patients, for example. That Fibroboost does not say where their polyphenols come from. So if you spend the pricey cost, and if you get a headache, that will tell you to stop using them.

I was going to state magnesium. It is obviously my favorite supplement since I suggest it to others often though for me I have not seen much change but it may help your muscle relax. I see you have anxiety etc and do you think your migraines are worse during a high state of that?

So you are looking for supplement help for the head aches? I asked on my thread but do you have rsd? I ask cause my pain doc suggested vitamin c too. So I m not sure if you take that but I thought I would suggest it.

Butterbur is known to help with headaches.
I have seen a study indicating clearly of the possibility it helps people. Magnesium is also well liked. Other supplements said to help: Calcium CoQ10 B Vitamins Some people say they benefit from Feverfew (it never helped me). |

but i was also looking for something akin to a coq10, in that something that would help out my vascular system in a way, like the nattokinase is supposed to do. nattokinase is supposedly a soybean type aspirin. so nevermind about that.
