Food Supplements

August 10th, 2010 admin No comments

Are vitamins (food supplements) really safe?

"Most of your supplements are loaded with hidden sugars, salts and harmful fillers. You’re really better off getting the nutrients you need from FOOD."....
"The supplements industry is not only completely unregulated, it is also joined at the hip with some of the biggest pharmaceuticals companies, which have their nutritional supplements divisions. The general public has been mislead for decades to believe that dietary supplements are safe and effective means of ensuring good health, when they are, in fact, actually destroying health."

Someone else said that, not me.

Comments? Thanks.

I believe there is good and bad in everything. I spent 5 years in a health and nutrition background learning and educating myself and staff. Yes whole foods is the best source of nutrients but unfortunately with our fast pace world we live in it becomes unrealistic to believe that we are always going to eat properly and healthy. However we still need supplimentation. I think that situations alter cases and things can be done in moderation. Research your manufacturing companies and educate yoursel with fillers and ingredience. These factors have all to do with everything. Immune support is very important as well as many other things. Do as much as you can for yourself naturally and there is nothing wrong with a helping hand. Just make it your responsibility to educate yourself.
