I want to discuss and disseminate fact from bogus info regarding brands of supplements, alternative therapies, food as a source of healing, merits of yoga, meditation, etc. I’m not looking for a site where "professionals" give answers.

This is a very good source a natural medecines. vaxa.com Check it out. I am alive today because i used their products when I had cancer in 1993. Listen to Dr. Headley discuss various products. There is unconditional guarantee on all products.

Say I were to mostly just eat just pasta and some form of protein, like tofu or milk products, could I still get my missing nutrients efficiently through pills and supplements alone?

everyone’s body processes nutrients differently and has different needs and demands. the only way to know for sure is to try it out. if you feel sluggish, have dry hair or skin, get sick easily, or have other signs of a vitamin deficiency, go to a doctor to get a complete metabolic profile (its a blood test) and you can see what you are lacking in your diet. you may need shots such as vitamin b to fill the gaps.Learning about the in’s and out’s of internet marketing can be difficult unless you have a great mentor and where can that mentorship be found?

I have no idea. You could probably get a better answer by asking a doctor. My guess non of them. Doctors are like the sales rep and the pharmacies are like the head office. The pharmacies make money every time a doctor recomends a patient to try a new drug for their illness. So I don’t think that the pharmacies would restrict the doctors from selling any kind of medicine. Theirs no reason for Steven Harper to restrict Canadian doctors from teaching their patients any kind of exercise or diets. A diet may be restricted but only depending on the patient if he or she might not be able to do certain diets do to certain allergies or body types, medical problems. Their are a few medicines that the government will not allow into Canada from the United States because of the harmful side affects. Supplements, I think your safe with supplements as well. Your best bet is to talk to a physician or do some personal research.Just a little bit of new information today for all those internet marketers looking for the best new up and coming release for 2010.

Looking for best vitamin supplements? Thousands of brands of vitamin supplements are sold in shops and online vitamin supplements store. Many claim that there is the best vitamin supplements for you.

Look further before you plunge in.

You need to investigate the vitamin supplement manufacturers to ensure what you are eating is of highest quality.

Factors to consider when choosing vitamin supplements

Here is a quick checklist for best vitamin supplements manufacturers:

1. Is the product provided in a single dose? (a once-a-day simply can’t provide the level of potency needed)

If any product has that claim, look closer. It may not be true.

2. Is the potency level of the ingredients high enough to provide optimal daily nutritional intake without compromising safety?

Most multivitamin provide 100% of the RDI except major minerals like calcium. You need to take calcium supplements separately to meet your RDI.

3. Are the ingredients provided in their most bioavailable form?

Synthetic vitamin C with bioflavonoid improves tremendously the absorption of vitamin C into your body.

Synthetic vitamin E is only 50% bioavailable for absorption.

4. Does the company meet the United States and Canadian pharmaceutical guidelines – for Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)?

Be aware that there are two GMPs, one is pharmaceutical GMP and the other is food GMP. The former is more stringent.

5. Is the product formulated to meet pharmaceutical standards for full disintegration and dissolution?

A simple home test can tell if the vitamin tablet can disintegrate.

6. Is the vitamin supplement product independently tested, reviewed and guaranteed for potency and safety?

7. Is the product manufactured in-house (not contracted to the lowest bidder)?

You can tell by reading their manufacturing literature. If none is available, write to them for one.

8. Does the label list all active ingredients and the DV or RDI percentage clearly and readable?

Read the label, if you see more ‘extra’ ingredients than you need, probably you are paying for such extra ingredients.

9. Is the product potency guaranteed for a specific shelf life?

10. Is the safety profile of each ingredient thoroughly researched and evaluated?

11. Is the product free of ingredients that may have cumulative toxicity?

12. Is the product in harmony with nature (use plant (better still organic) extract as part of their ingredients?

Keep looking if you have not found one.

Do a home test for your vitamin supplement tablets:

I have personally done some disintegration tests on some multivitamin and calcium tablets. Many of them did not disintegrate 30 minutes or longer. I did those test at home. You can also carry it out.

This is how to do a vitamin supplements home test: Immerse the vitamin tablet into a cup of warm water. Wait for 30 minutes. Stir it. Some remain intact, some release the coloring. These are all no good sign of good quality supplements.

A good quality vitamin supplement will disintegrate in warm water in about 30 minutes. It should not release any color.

Read reviews:

Online reviews may publish some test results, typically

- verify the label claim and actual content of the vitamin supplements
- test for presence of toxic content
- test for disintegration test
- issue recall and warnings

Watch out for the warnings and recall news:

Do you know there are many vitamin and herbs supplements being issued warning of use or being recalled? FDA publishes these warning or recall press release at it website.

You also need to find out if you need to take vitamin supplements? And which vitamin to supplement your nutrition gaps. Even if you eat balance diet (only a very small percentage if people do that), you also need to identify what are the vitamin robbers in your lifestyle, diet and environment. Identifying these vitamin robbers can help you to pin-point what you may be lacking and therefore to supplement with the right type vitamin supplements.

With good quality supplements and knowing what you need, this is the best vitamin supplements program you can start with.

I would really like to know which nutritional supplements are best for my maintaining of overall health. Which ones will help me to avoid the major health issues that so many Americans struggle with later in life. You may even include diet and exercise suggestons in your answer if you want.

1) high potency multi vitamin with minerals added
obviously gives you what you need
2) l-glutamine
this amino acid helps your body rebuild
3) vitamin c – 500mg in morning, 500 mg in afternoon, 500mg after supper, 500 mg before bed. Vitamin c is a great anti oxident, it also builds the amune system.

Is using this the same as eating foods that contain fiber? I am trying to get the recommended 30-35 grams/day, but usually fall short (around 25 grams). I just want to make sure that it is not pointless to be taking this supplement. Thanks for any advice you can give:)

No it is not a waste to take fiber supplements. Most people simply to do not get enough fiber in their diets so supplementation is ideal. As you mention, you fall short. It is well worth the get the suggested amount since the benefits are so great – healthy digestion, potentially reducing certain illness risks and reducing the risk of colon cancer.

Fibersure is a great and easy way to add fibre to your diet. Days where you might not eat that much or eat the right foods – how easy to ensure your fibre intake than take a bit of fibersure. It’s not gritty and tastes okay – easy to add to food. Unlike something like Metamucil which is a little grittier and does not mix well with food.

Keep in mind though – that if you do eat enough fiber this product isn’t really needed. For times of constipation or digestive problems you are probably better off using some Metamucil (original) since it’s a different type of fibre than the kind you ingest and acts differently.
