Question 2

What are the ingredients?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your curiosity. There is no ingredient. It is not a recipe nor a food. It has the strongest CO2 absorbant on the planet inside. But the chemical compostion is a trade secret by the manufacturer in New England. Those chemicals are simple minerals and  are harmless, FDA approved food grade minerals. Nothing goes from the device into your body. Its purpose is to purify the air of harmful CO2 in the air you breathe, CO2 is the most common trigger of panicky anxiety (the other triggers include falling progesterone levels, adrenalin, very high doses of caffeine, lactate, and brain cholecystokinin. ) Please see the National Anxiety Foundation's website about panic disorder. It explains the matter . 
I gave one to a 22 y/o woman who was experiencing a panic attack so severe that she was sobbing as hard as a woman can cry!. It stopped her attack in just 6 normal breaths. She just stared at it afterwards and said, "That's magical." I was SO happy for her. It made me very proud of my 35 year work to perfect this.

It does not help everybody. Nothing helps everybody, of course. About 70% respond to it. If you have panic attacks indoors or in vehicles AND YOU WANT TO LEAVE, AND IF YOU DO LEAVE THE CONFINES AND GO OUTSIDE,  AND YOU FEEL RELIEF WHEN YOU GET OUT OF THE "CLAUSTROPHOBIC" PLACE, that is a probability tip that it will help you. Why? Because, the only difference between claustrophobic places and outdoors is 200 to 700% LESS CO2 outdoors than in closed -in places. The device reduces the high indoor CO2 levels (which may trigger panicky attacks) to the low CO2 levels outdoors.  Shew. That's a lot of answer for a simple question. God bless.

If it works for you, would you go to the trouble to leave a review please? 
Thank you.

Question 3

Is this refillable? Or once whatever is in the product is gone, do you have to buy a new one?

Accepted Answer

No, it is not. The expensive CO2 scrubber sheet stack you can see through the bottom grill is not replaceable in the present model, because it represents 95% of the cost of the unit. Refills would cost practically as much as a new device.
I will tell you that most users report the unit is good for 500 breaths. It stops major panic attacks in many persons in 6 breaths. Be sure to rebag it after use to prolong its life.  We are working already on a redesign that will have an external color indicator to show if it is getting to weak to work.
