A vitamin a day may do more harm than good

[Mark Thors]

A great article based on a story that appeared on the
Today Show.

Quoting from: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16655168/

Of 21 brands of multivitamins on the market in the United
States and Canada selected by ConsumerLab.com and tested by
independent laboratories, just 10 met the stated claims on
their labels or satisfied other quality standards.

Most worrisome, according to ConsumerLab.com president
Dr. Tod Cooperman, is that one product, The Vitamin
Shoppe Multivitamins Especially for Women, was
contaminated with lead.

"I was definitely shocked by the amount of lead in [this]
woman's product," he said. "We've never seen that much lead in
a multivitamin before."

1. MSNBC
2. Matt Lauer
3. ConsumerLabs (subscription only)

Says it ALL

Add to that one of the recommended packs, Centrum, who
obviously never pays anyone to promote their product ha ha ha
ha ha ha NBC credible? ha ha ha ha ha

The funniest one was the one about vitamin A, sickening. The
biggest REAL complaint about vitamins in pill or chewable form
is the fact that the body "typically" absorbs from 5% to 10%
of what is on the label as content. OF COURSE, THEY, (NBC),
The source of the most media lies, would NEVER point that out.

NBC (On the air comedy central, some people actually take the
news casts or Matt Lauer serious) Unbelievable.

Actually, it says that there is a problem that needs to be
addressed.

"Lawyers are the easiest to con. Doctors are second." Advice
from a couple multi millionaire sales people.

It is just another good reason to get ones vitamins from
quality real whole foods and to avoid manufactured crap
nutrient-deficient processed foods.
