The Store Shelves Are Loaded, So, Where Do You Start?
Shopping for the best nutritional supplements can be confusing. Heck, just looking for the healthiest teas leaves me in the grocery aisles reading the labels of 10 different boxes. And in the end, I only know what their packaging promotes.
So, how can we know which brand, processing method, dosage, or combination of ingredients makes the best supplement for us and our current state of health? I’d like to believe the ads and store employees, but I know neither are 100% reliable or fully informed. And too often fad-ads misguide us by promoting non-existing benefits.
