Understanding Supplements/Vitamins |

It can be very confusing trying to figure out which vitamin or supplement is right for you. It can also be very deceiving to try to figure out which vitamins/supplements truly are natural and to what percent. Let's just say you think you found one that is natural and the one your body needs, now you have to figure out if it is really absorbable by your body. I found out a long time ago to stick with the company I trust. They have been around over 50 years and never have been asked to recall any of their quality healthy supplements. They test them for absorption so I know they work. I myself have proven they work multiple times with blood work from my own body. When my body couldn't absorb iron or calcium for other so called quality supplements, it could absorb it from these. My blood work finally improved, and I was feel better. I remember a supplement that I used called Bodywise, and it was suppose to help you get lean. Friends sold it so I thought I could trust them and their knowledge. Unfortunately, it made me terribly sick In fact, years later, I've talked to many people who have had side painful side effects from such natural vitamins. You need to be sure the company is looking out for your best interest: your health. I'm done being the guinea pig for so called safe supplements. I just stick with 1 company and let them do all the research. Just a side note too, 'supplement or vitamin' has become somewhat of a generic term to refer to all supplements that people think will improve their health: herbal, liquid, vitamins, amino acids (which by the way are often included in your protein drinks, weight loss products, or other supplements). Just another note to remember: If you have read my articles earlier you may have remembered this. But my husband used a so called natural vitamin off the internet that was suppose to be safe. It made his cholesterol sky rock from 176 to over 300. We noticed unwanted side effects so he quit it in only 2 weeks. Fortunately, the results were reversible but the doctor wasn't sure if they would be or not. Now this supplement has been recalled but how many people did it hurt before they recalled it. Too many because 1 is too many. Protect yourself from marketeers and use SAFE SUPPLEMENTS with a company you can trust.
REMEMBER: EVERYONE DESERVES TO FEEL EXCELLENT & BE HEALTHY!
