Re: why standard process doesn't sell retail

[Guest guest]

I went and looked in my cabinet at some supplements a homeopath gave me over

a year ago and was surprised to see they were Standard Process. I thought

the label was dinky too. Now I'm surprised to see i got such a quality

product!

Your Mileage May Vary:

A company claiming a product is good based on a diagnosis through

" Applied Kinesiology " ensures that I would never buy a product from

that company.

When a nutrient is whole and in food form, you do not need mega

quantities considering that it will actually be absorbed 70-80% as

opposed to 20-30% at the most and I'm being generous.

Well, I think if you read the whole article you will see they are hardly

promoting the product based on that. The rest of the article that I linked

to was explaining the science behind their product, and explained a lot of

good info on the different parts of the C complex and their different

functions, and why a whole food C complex is superior to an ascorbic acid or

ascorbate supplement. The " applied kinesiology " bit was just added as a

little anecdotal piece to supplement the science.

" What can one say of a soul, of a heart, filled with compassion? It is a

heart which burns with love for every creature: for human beings, birds, and

animals, for serpents and for demons. The thought of them and the sight of

them make the tears of the saint flow. And this immense and intense

compassion, which flows from the heart of the saints, makes them unable to

bear the sight of the smallest, most insignificant wound in any creature.

Thus they pray ceaselessly, with tears, even for animals, for enemies of the

truth, and for those who do them wrong. "

--Saint Isaac the Syrian
