Health Store Bargains

007 asked:


I have discovered that pill bugs are in my house on the first floor. I have not noticed them on the second floor, but they are so many of them day after day in my living room, bathroom, etc. Are these insects ( or isopods as scientists refer to them) harmful to human being or to humans’ health.

I have heard of them being in gardens, but now they are in my house, is there something I am doing or not doing? how can I get rid of them?

Am I entitled to more than that? I wasso very sick that I had explosive diarhea, projectile vomiting, fever, chills,and severe weakness . This went on for three days . At first I thought I had caught some random stomach virus. Then five days later I drank another one and had the same problem!! That’s when I figured out that it was the drink. My question boils down to this…Am I entitled to compensation beyond the purchase price of a six-pack of Ensure? Is there somewhere I can send the last three bottles to be tested for contamination (bacterial or chemical) other than the company who manufactures them? Somehow I think they would be less than honest with their results! Should I just drink another one in the hospital waiting room? I contacted Consumer Reports and they just said to return them to the company. Not what I expected from a company with the consumer’s best interests in mind! Lastly, what about all the hospital patients who’s symptoms were dismissed as their illness?

Hi Everyone! I have really been thinking about making my own nutritional supplement. I have been an athlete my whole life and want to create something that is tailored to what myself and my teammates feel is important as far as supplements go. The problem is, while I have a company lined up to manufacture my product and I am working on getting incorporated, I have no idea how to get my product out to the market. I have never worked at a vitamin store or health food store (just retail clothing!) so I don’t know what their process is as far as agreeing to carry some one’s product. I really feel that its a great idea, but I am so nervous to go ahead with having it manufactured because I don’t know how to approach the store owners or how I will get it out to the public. If anyone works for a vitamin or health food store and knows how the process works, I would really really appreciate any feedback you have and how I could get a store interested in carrying my product and would it be totally impossible to do that given all the huge brands that currently offer products through these stores. Thank you so much!!!!

I have been ligting weights for about 5 years now, and i’m 18 years old now. I would like to know what is the best supplement to take, that you can buy from a GNC or nutritional center, and that is healthy and worthwhile, not a rip off, like NO Xplode.

Diet Guru asked:


I’m looking for videos that explain how to take supplements. Most people don’t read the instructions but they will watch a video.

John M asked:


I have had anxiety for a while now, I have been on Remeron for the past year and it helps but there are times when I can’t concentrate on work because of this and my brain feels foggy and unable to think straight, then there are time when I get a panic attack out of nowhere and feel like I am going to vomit.

I would like to know a good Nutritional Supplement / Vitamin that is fast acting that will clear my mind of fog, help with concentration and get rid of the anxiety when it comes out of know where. I have tried chamomile tincture and bach rescue remedy and they have not helped at all.

Also note that I would like the recommendation to be safe and have minimal side effects when taken in addition to Remeron. I was going to try Kava Kava but my doctor said it damages the liver easily, also St. John’s wort but I can’t take it with Remeron, so my doctor said to do some research and get back to him with a list of things I would like to try.
By Doctor above I ment my Psyciatrist.

So, Siddler, In this Case, it is a Question of Price, Not Effectiveness.
Thanks, K, What I was Aware of Gingko Already, Additionally:

I’m Sorry, K, Here is the Title of the Paper:

“Safety and Efficacy of a Ginkgo Biloba–Containing Dietary Supplement on Cognitive Function, Quality of Life, and Platelet Function in Healthy, Cognitively Intact Older Adults”
Thanks, K, In my Estimation. the Abstract is Devastating to Anyone Promoting Gingko for Anything.
