Why We Developed Our Own Line of Supplements

We developed our own line of products so that we can ensure the highest quality and appropriate dosages of the supplements we recommend to our clients. Our goal was to design a supplement line that people could actually take and afford, and feel confident that they were not wasting their money on poor or ineffective ingredients. We balanced numerous factors in evaluating capsule ingredients: purity, quantity, effectiveness, and cost. We have accomplished our goal, and we maintain onsite product information proving the quality of our supplements by independent laboratory analyses.

There are literally thousands of herbal products, botanicals, vitamins, and minerals in stores and on the Internet that one can take. We have chosen to partner with UST Corporation, a nutraceutical manufacturer, which helps us do something important for you. As new scientific information is published, we will be able to evaluate and quickly modify our product line to remain up-to-date.  

Try this exercise: Go to the grocery store, the drug store – or even the Internet. Find 5 different brands of Co-Q-10 (Coenzyme Q-10). Pay attention to the amounts of the Co-Q-10 and the price. Does the listed daily dose contain at least 60 mg? (It probably does not.) Anything less is not shown to be effective. Now, try and determine whether or not the product actually contains what it says it does, and that the bottle you buy of “Brand X” this month has the same amount when you buy the same brand next month. Because that takes time, we have done the work for you, and have explained our technique for coming up with cost comparisons in the link: Supplement Cost Comparisons

It may help to know that we use the products ourselves, as do our families.  We don’t claim to have the cheapest products on the market. However we feel our products provide peace of mind to our clients who have better things to do than spend time researching the supplement world themselves.

As you read this, Congress is considering new legislation that would take away your access to safe, effective and affordable dietary supplements. You can make a difference by urging your Representative to oppose H .R . 3156, which would limit your choice and access to dietary supplements and also urging your Senators to oppose S. 1137, which would make a safe and effective dietary supplement, DHEA, illegal by classifying it as an anabolic steroid.
