That’s all?
You’re not taking enough, you will die of cancer or diabetes complications soon.

I was told NOT to buy vitamins from big chain stores like Walmart or Target because their vitamins are made of of all kinds of junk and the FDA doesn’t regulate vitamins so they can put that in there. You should buy from a vitamin store.

@CorporateRule what’s your opinion of extras to prevent these illnesses.

@CorporateRule
I did not get your insult- I do take others but noticed vitamins from fruits are more effective over the pill. And apparently in fruits there are other antioxidants like polyphenols, anthocyanides, fibre, etc.

Has anybody read the book, “Nutrition Science” by T Trainer (web: trainersplanet)?
A friend recommended it and said it has a wealth of info.

I was taking a supplement from GNC: MegaMen. It costs about 33 cents a day. Good one, but mega doses of B, etc. I switched to Kirkland Mature Multi Adult 50+. Costs about 1/10th the cost or 3 cents per day. I read it got good reviews. However, I eat a well balanced diet of about 2000 calories per day, 160 grams of protein, 30ish grams of fat. Hey kids… that’s less fat all day than a Whopper from Burger King.

You aren’t getting enough fat. Men need 20-30% of calories from fat to maintain healthy hormone levels and absorb fat soluble vitamins. ( vitamins A, D, E, K )
Not to mention all the benefits of Essential Fatty Acids.

The dirty secret is that most every vitamins are made in china.Some of them say they are made here, but only the pills are made here, the powder is from china. Independent testing has found everything from mercury to arsenic in them. Do you think its a coincidence that they make you feel sick after taking them. That was never the case 25 years ago. Oh and the vitamin C added in your juice, that one got the worst test result.

@NavyHornet1 I didn’t read your dumb comment…. But white girls are sluts… Go to any college in America they are sleeping with the Black Guys… I go to Auburn University and these white sluts are fucking black guys like crazy.
They love them…. I wish white girls liked us Asian guys :-\

Why the hell do people buy vitamins when the mark up of then are 800% for what is in the bottle. Heaven forbid some one did a medical study and proved it helped, the mark up goes to 1600%. There is not a dollars worth of vitamins or minerals in a 500 count bottle
You don’t know what quality or purity of the vitamins &mineral you get. You don’t know where it was manufactured at. Even if it says usa, it may only been put into bottles in the usa.

There are a few brands that do there best to not add the unneeded and rather dangerous metals and such. I like NSI, they are not top of the line, as in, most expensive you can buy, but I’ve never felt I was getting dirty vitamins either. Would be nice if there was a method like diabetics use for checking what we are low on. “Oh, i need some extra A today, no problem, grab a carrot or two.” Ever notice they only have a test for things they know they can charge a mint for? That blows!

I worked in the supplement industry for years after retireing from the U.S. Navy. I can tell you that supplements can help only a little bit and there is no such thing as a cure. I think this guy is doing all he can to sell book or he has stock in the supplement industry. Save your money and do all the home remedy helpers.

@ch3693 I have a clip on my facebook page that tells you how vitamin C is made. Shocking stuff. curtisat@lus.com newtrician ensupplements.

All this talk about what we should eat, do etc. I say, don´t trust anyone. Go back to the basics to have a healty life. Eat as much natural ANYTHING as you can and exercise. Both my sister and I are iron deficient. Ok, I need to take iron supplements but still, I try to get my iron from FOOD first, and when I feel a bit off, I pop in a supplement. Just to help: spinach, (eat it raw), red meat, and surprisingly, HOT CEREAL (loaded with iron) are a great way to boost your iron level if needed.

Does USDA Organic Hemp oil have enough fatty acids compared to fish oil? I have a bottle in the fridge that has been sitting for like 3 years & I want to know if its worth it.

All suplements, including vitamins and minerals, if they are not from natural source (vegetable or animal), are poison to your body, since only a partion can be processed easily.

@tiborpiri There was a guy called Abram Hoffer and he took a about 50 pills of vitamins per day. (see video: Hoffer’s Health) and he lived to be over 90!
So I think to say that vitamins that are not natural are poision, is a stretch to say the least. Organic vitamins are probably more effective, that’s all..
