Quality Control is Crucial

Quality Control is Crucial
The article below made me sit up and take note. I was shocked to learn that 60% of the herbal products contained

something different than that specified on the label and that only 2 out of the 12 of the companies were authentic.

In other words if you are buying herbal products from companies other than Nature's Sunshine you do not know what

you are getting. Cheaper is not better.  Nature's Sunshine is a company of 40 years and it has surpassed any other

company of herbal products because it sustains its integrity of quality. Their products are thouroughly tested and they

work!

Note also the alternative herbal market is exploding. I know I am in the right business. If you are thinking of a great business

either part time or full time please contact me Donna Roth 250 764 2852 . TAFYH is the best 7 week training you will ever find.

This is a result oriented course full of gems of knowledge you never knew existed. You will no longer need to surf the internet

for hours to find the information you need for successful health. TAFYH says it all!

 

Finally I want to encourage you to attend my educational session at Perkins Restaurant on Thursday , October 24/13.See the details below.

Study: Herbal products omit ingredients, contain fillers 

Consumers of natural health products beware. The majority of herbal products on the market contain ingredients not listed on the label, with most companies substituting cheaper alternatives and using fillers, according to new research from the University of Guelph.

The study, published today in the open access journal BMC Medicine, used DNA barcoding technology to test 44 herbal products sold by 12 companies.

Only two of the companies provided authentic products without substitutions, contaminants or fillers.

Overall, nearly 60 per cent of the herbal products contained plant species not listed on the label.

Researchers detected product substitution in 32 per cent of the samples.

More than 20 per cent of the products included fillers such as rice, soybeans and wheat not listed on the label.

 

Medicinal herbs now constitute the fastest-growing segment of the North American alternative medicine market, with more than 29,000 herbal substances sold.
