Health Store Bargains

The health benefit claims from the makers of these probiotic drinking yoghurts have been overwhelmingly dismissed by a team of scientists at the European Food Safety Authority.

The only reason these manufacturers have been publicly investigated, is that they made health claims. So these authorities are compelled to investigate by law, yet there are endless products making ludicrous claims (usually to do with health and beauty), that get away with it, and are making millions in doing so.

Top of my list is Clairol Herbal Essences Shampoo.

It promises any variety of exotic ingredients from Guavas, Papaya, icy Pineapple (wtf?), Pearl ( eh? ) and Akai berries. Yet they all smell of Hubba Bubba….every single one, no matter what the alleged ingredient.

Milky Way chocolate - Mars have made millions from whipping water. I doubt there is any chocolate in it.

So what product’s claims do you feel suspicious of?
Jess - It’s true that, if something has a scientific sounding name most think it to be more potent than something with a ‘natural’ ingredient and therefore worth the price tag.
JOMAMO- I’m thinking of lots to do with keep fit now - I had a pedometer that recorded 20 paces every time I so much as sniffed or blinked.Do you remember those sauna suit thingies? Like tin foil babygros…*shakes head*
Hypocrite- lololol I hope that’s true ’spillmaster’…from Ronco. I bought something similar that were like crystals and then expanded to gel to mop up spills.Twas crud……
Coneilius- lol @ detox..,if that were possible then we could all do without our Livers

Am away to start taking vitamins, omega 3 capsules etc and some other supplements. What are the best cheapest tablets? Am willing to spend a small amount on decent ones so am not looking for the cheapest if they are rubbish! Is there perhaps some sort of comparison tables? Thanks

Andrew K asked:


I’ve never taken health supplements before. The store lady at GNC Health Store recommended a dozen products to me, and I am confused. I’ve heard from people that all I need is 1000mg of vitamin C, another supplement to detox my liver (green tea, milk thistle), and something else for the heart (fish oil). I’m confused. These products aren’t cheap. What would be the best supplements that a 30-year-old guy should consume on a daily basis (product names and where to get them would be very much appreciated)? Thanks.

I made a website selling health supplements last week, it’s registered with google and the domain name is registered. It comes up on the side advertisements when certain words are searched for but that’s b/c I made a google adwords account. How can I get it to come up in the actual search results? What about the first page?

I want my cat to live as long as possible, and I’d like to know of any good supplements to keep my cat healthy. She’s almost 7 years old, on the small side, and is a completely indoor cat. She’s extremely healthy, robust, and playful. I feed her Blue Buffalo Spa Selects, but I may be switching her to a better food.

Any advice is appreciated, thank you!
I don’t mean medicine, I mean holistic food supplements, like vitamins.
