Bogus Health Supplements

Over the last decade or so there has been a large increase in the availability of 'health' products. Company's now have the opportunity to make a lot of money selling products aimed at health conscious buyers. 

Products are cleanly packaged with rustic colours and advertised with buzz words such as 'natural, simple and organic'. Certain colours and words are now associated with a specific type of product and people buy into this without questioning wether or not the product is actually really doing any good. 

Most vitamin C effervescent tablets contain aspartame; the controversial sweetener. Other supplement tablets often contain bulking/caking agents/modified maize starch and a long list of ingredients that could potentially be doing more harm than good.

Do your research, read the ingredient list and buy high quality, organic supplements. Remember, even the highest quality supplements will do nothing for you if your diet is not what it should be. Your WHOLE lifestyle needs to be analysed, including food, water, sleep, stress, daily habits and environment before even considering supplements. Its moronic to expect results from health supplements whilst eating mostly processed food derived from GM crops, guzzling down sugar/caffeine/calorie free chemically enhanced laden drinks.
