Guest guest Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Hello! I am wondering if all the brands listed in the Supplements Chart by are highly recommended. There are so many vitamin lines out there and so much hype. I have definitely been led to believe that cheap vitamins usually are not reputable and to be very careful. I'm pretty sure that Source Naturals and Twinlab are good. What about NOW brand? Also I have heard that the most bioavailable source of vitamin E is from the A.C. Grace company. Most Naturopaths I have been to use very expensive vitamin lines. Any thoughts? Thanks All! Crystal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Crystal, I can't speak from experience to all your questions, but I use alot of NOW brand and have been very happy with them. I sure notice a difference when I use a poor brand, like for instance, when I use a good magnesium in the evening I get a relaxed feeling and sleep better. But when I have switched to different brands, I can tell I've made a poor choice when I lose that benefit. Another affordable brand that I have had good experiences with is Solaray. I have been less than satisfied with KAL and Country Life. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been taking Clear Base Vitamin E by Natural Factors since the 90s; they controlled my hot flashes when I was going through menopause so I know they were good. The reason naturopaths recommend expensive vitamin lines is because they can make money from them. Whereas mainstream lines like NOW, Natural Factors, Solaray, etc. are available to everyone without having to go through a natural practitioner.
