Are Your Vitamins Safe?

When you buy vitamins do you know what the ingredients mean and what benefit or potential harm they will cause?

I didn't have a clue for many years. I fell for the marketing hype. I didn't know how to read and understand the labels. Well that changed last year after the pet food recalls. I started helping pet lovers understand what is really in pet food. Then the light bulb went off and I realized I was feeding my human family synthetic ingredients, in our vitamin supplements. I went on a learning journey and was so shocked that our health is not always the most important thing in the vitamin industry. It's profit driven for many.

How do you feel when taking a vitamin supplement?

Do you sleep restfully and wake refreshed?
Do you have energy to chase after the kids or make love with your partner after a day at work?
Do you have regular bowel movements?
Do you feel happy and motivated every day?
Are you rarely sick with colds or stomach problems?

If you answered no to any of these you might be taking synthetic vitamins.

Answer yes to the following questions and it could be the vitamin.

Do you toss and turn when you should be sleeping?
Are you drained of energy most days?
Do you have dark yellow, strong smelling urine?
Are you constipated or have bouts of diarrhea?
Do you suffer memory loss, fatigue, depression or insomnia?

Not all vitamin supplements are created equally, even a whole food multi can have synthetic ingredients, additives and fillers including fiber*.

Here are 3 reports from Reuters Health, and New England Journal of Medicine about synthetic ingredients in vitamins.

1. Male smokers taking vitamins with synthetic Vitamin E and Beta Carotene have increase rates of lung cancer, heart attacks and increased death.

2. Birth defects increased for women on synthetic vitamin A, 400% increase before a study was halted.

3. Men get thickened arteries on synthetic Vitamin C. This is after only 18 months of taking a synthetic Vitamin C.

* Fiber is good if it's not in your vitamin. Fiber is a cheap filler when used in a supplement. It takes space that should be saved for the expensive nutrients you are paying for in the supplement. Take fiber alone, if you need it.
