What brand or brands of supplements/vitamins/herb... remedies are consistently the highest quality?
Question:
Answers:
For all your supplement needs: www.bestshapeofyourlife.com. All natural and very competitively priced.
First of all, I am a culinary student with a minor in nutritonal science. Artificial vitamens and supplements are created equally. Vitamin B12 of one brand will be the same Vitamin B12 in another. Most brands advertise their high amounts or the benefits of them. Be weary of most. Just because one pill may have 300mg of vitamen C doesn't mean that your body will absorb all of it. Most artificial vitamens do not absorb in the body that well anyway; especailly fat soluable vitamens that need to be attached to fat in order to be absorbed. The best way to get your vitamens is from food. Eat a variety of fruits, vegetables and lean protein.
Expensive does not necessarily mean better. I use Andrew Lessman Women's Complete Vitamins. You can get them off of his website OR you can go to www.hsn.com & get them for considerably less. They are a high quality vitamin. They do not bother my stomach & they do not taste bad. I have used many many other brands of vitamins, including Herbalife, Shaklee, Usana, Centrum, One a Day, etc.... These all have that strong vitaminy smell & after about a week of taking them, they make me gag. Andrew Lessman vitamins are capsule form, so no harsh smell. The vitamin is ground into a powder, for easy absorption. Also, there are no additives in his vitamins. Alot of vitamins add things like...sugar, bonding agents, color, etc..He also uses 'green' methods in his facility where the vitamins are produced. 'Green' like, solar panels to help produce the energy that his factory needs for production. Hope this helps. :) Best wishes with your pursuit of a great vitamin. :)
Shaklee is one of the very best you can find and you really do get what you pay for when it comes to vitamins and supplements. I've used them for years and have had great results.
Hope this is useful and feel free to contact me with questions.
I think Nature's Sunshine products are by far the best, they are natural, pure and guaranteed. I have been using them for years and I know others who have been using them for over 20 with awesome results. You should at least try them! And stay away from brands sold in regular stores, they are full of fillers and chemicals and often found whole in toilets because your body doesn't break them down!

I totally agree with the person that said "expensive doesn't mean high quality". That's the biggest misnomer in our country today... I like to call it the "Walmart mentality", or "if it's cheap, it must be cheap" ;-)
With that being said, it's also a very good idea to check on the quality of the company before you buy from them... check online for references, ask friends and family (or here works ;-) ).
The company I've found in my research to be top notch while still being low priced is Swanson Health Products at http://www.swansonvitamins.com/...
They have been rated by the NPA and have been given an A Rating from the GMP certification (which is the highest rating optional for quality... less than 10% of the supplement companies in the U.S. are able to achieve that rating, much less maintain that rating).
Even better than that, Swansons guarantees the best prices (with a "double the difference" price match guarantee) and the best products (backed up with a 100% money-back guarantee)

Some of the cost vs quality arguments are inane. While more expensive might not equate to better, cheap CANNOT equate to BETTER!
It takes a certain degree of quality materials to make a quality product. When you work with cost-as-bottom-line products, then you cannot be sure that what they are using quality products -- actually, you know they are not: they are using the cheap products.
The Nutrilite brand has been THE top quality brand for longer than the nearly everyone reading this has been alive!
If you are going to get products that will effect something as significant as your health, don't sell yourself short. Get the best, and don't let the cost-vs-quality arguments get in your way.
