Man!!! This is a hot topic!!! I myself, am a vitamin user. Whast i can tell you you is, where i am in southwest CT, i ave ompared the ingriedents
listed on back of may different vitamins...CVS pharmacy, wallgreens, walmart, GNC (General Nutrion Center), Centrum, Centrum silver, ect, ect.
What i discovered is, GNC vitamins have the maximum herba, vitamins, and minerals for daily usage, from IU"s, to mg, to micrograms. The tohers
werre NO contest at all.
I do agree thoug, thousands of yeas we survived as a speices, even without vitamins, only through food, which, if course, is the best way to
metablize and absorb vitamins. Our bodies only absorb what it needs, which may or maynot be totaly metabolized..the rest, is just toilet waste.
However, thier dons't seem to be too many places, where you can actually get at least a descent vitamin supplement... Only 2 places i know of,
are GNC, and online, Puritans Pride.

Didn't warrant a new thread and fits in well enough here. About 10 min.
And this article -- Drug Makers Near Old Goal: A Legal Shield
www.nytimes.com...
"But because the Food and Drug Administration approved the patch, the company is arguing in court that it cannot be sued by women who claim that they
were injured by the product — even though its old label inaccurately described the amount of estrogen it released.
This legal argument is called pre-emption. After decades of being dismissed by courts, the tactic now appears to be on the verge of success, lawyers
for plaintiffs and drug companies say."
Ughhhhh...

I am constantly stunned at the naivety of the poster on here regarding any organisation that is in a position to regulate or control ANY aspect of our
supposed self determined lives? In this thread we have the FDA mentioned as if they are there to protect you from the snake oil peddlers? If we are to
take the Hippocratic Oath as the bases of all treatments from the medical profession and their prescribed treatments then I thought the most important
is not to harm. We all know of the harm that ALL pharmaceutical created drugs but they will get approved because of their so called greater good! But,
someone sells a harmless potion that might not actually do what it claims but still doesn’t have any harmful side affect and the FDA will nip that
right in the bud. Its been proved over and over that the FDA are nothing more than another control of the masses that will do exactly what government
want and more likely what the Elite want in terms of their probable population control. In my opinion Cancer’s are man-made and deliberately so and
woe betide any ‘quack’ that tries to convince you that your Doctors are killing you! Do a search on ‘What the Doctors Don’t tell you’ for
starters.
Come on waken up!

You're actually very lucky: in the EU, they are teamed up with the governments themselves... Just two words: Codex Alimentarius.
God help us...
