[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Outside Vitamin D, there is not a lot of data supporting supplements. [b]They are not regulated. You have no idea what you are actually getting[/b]. Eat a well-balanced diet with lots of fruits and vegetables.[/quote]

People say this as a reason to avoid all supplements.  As a consumer, like everything else, you need to be picky and find brands that have reputations for being reliable and effective.  [/quote]

You still can’t confirm what you’re getting. Unless you have a deficiency and test with resolution of the deficiency. [b]Reputation isn’t data[/b].[/quote]

It is. You just don't want to admit it.

Sometimes reputation is based on "feeling an effect".  Sometimes reputation comes from having a deficiency and testing after taking the supplement.  Most often the former and sometimes the latter.  [/quote]

Oh good lord. It never ceases to amaze me how much credence people will put in faith healers while dismissing the education, training and advice of people whose job it is to give evidence based advice. I blame the abysmal state of science education in this country.[/quote]
