Do Your High-Priced Vitamins Have Cheap Ingredients?

Do Your High-Priced Vitamins Have Cheap Ingredients?

So, you walk into a vitamin store or the health section of a supermarket and what do you see? Hundreds of vitamins with different ingredients, amounts and sourcing…not to mention every imaginable shape, size and color.

What’s the one thing they all have in common? They all claim to be the best.

On some level you realize they can’t all live up to their claim. But how can you really know if you’re getting a high-quality supplement or just a fancy label with cheap ingredients?

Here are several criteria you’ll want to consider when purchasing your next vitamins:

4 Things to Look for In Your Daily Vitamins

Absorption

The digestive system must extract the nutrients you need from food and supplements, but the body’s absorption of vitamins can be affected by several factors, including competition of digestion and the addition of other supplements. Many ingredients are known to be poorly absorbed yet are used simply because they’re cheaper or take up less space in the tablet or capsule.

Formulation

Just because a product has a certain ingredient in it doesn’t mean there’s enough of that ingredient in each dose to benefit the person taking it. A dirty little secret of the dietary supplement industry is that many products have less-than-recommended amounts of ingredients – especially when those ingredients are expensive – to make it seem like the consumer is getting more for their money than with a competing product. Some in the industry call this “dusting” with “Fairy Dust.” Healthy dietary supplements provide safe and clinically effective ingredients in doses that have reasonable probability of creating benefits for those who take them.

Quantity

The number of ingredients in dietary supplements widely vary, which is especially true of multiple vitamins. Some leading supplement companies take a minimalist approach, claiming that less is more. At BrainMD, we believe that more is more. Not only are we concerned with the number of ingredients but also in the quality of those ingredients…

Quality

Many supplements have agents added only for cosmetic reasons, titanium dioxide for example. Others have artificial dyes, some of which are linked to cancer. Some supplements, including many being marketed to children, have substantial amounts of sugar added. Many products that contain minerals have revealed lead contamination when tested.

Bottom line: always conduct thorough research on dietary supplements before adding them to your daily regimen.

One of the many BrainMD products that meets or exceeds all the above standards is NeuroVite Plus:
