What Natural Health Resources Can Do for You
Almost all vitamin mineral and supplement ingredients come from 3 main manufactures in the US and most from one. These companies are in business to make money and sell as much as they can at the lowest price they can. The suppliers are not concerned with the health benefits customers derive as much as they are competing for business and dropping costs. To get a deal with each new company that springs up that wants to cash in on the ever growing supplement sales, they must sell the lowest quality and grade of nutrients they can obtain. They know that all these companies ordering from them want is to make money and that they will not test the products, or know the difference in the ingredient effectiveness. They know the FTC does not regulate the active ingredients or even label claims to amounts. So short cutting these is common, especially if imported sources are used like vitamin C from China, which is often diluted several times before it hits the market. Many studies have shown that over 90% of the vitamin C products tested did not meet label claims and half had less than 10% of what the label said. Did you save money on those?
Another example is that many list vitamin D3 when in reality they use D2 a cheaper synthetic hormone ergosterol or ergocalciferol. Or they simply don’t have any D at all. Some list just D or Calcium or Iron and don’t tell which type and source. These supplements should be avoided for sure. Most use the cheapest sources from dirt, pure pharmaceutical minerals which are just rocks or micro-crushed rocks. Plants can utilize dirt whereas people don’t. We need plant or animal sources in their unaltered or “live state” as much as possible. Concentrated is fine, but not altered. Sadly the effectiveness of products, the quality of the ingredients or even the actual amount of ingredient in the finished product is not enforced and most consumers are not educated about the different types and effectiveness of different ingredients.
These new brands have nothing new in them even if it is the first time you have heard of an ingredient. They may change around amounts of ingredients and spin their formula and hype why it is better. But in reality we know what nutrients the body needs and basically how much. They are interested in buying at the lowest cost possible to compete for sales. They know most consumers are not educated at all and the rest very mis-educated by all kinds of contradictory information and dis-information marketing hype on supplements. Men’s formulas, women’s, seniors, yet we all eat the same food; its hype!
The enclosed articles explain that almost all of these products even if called pharmaceutical grade, pharmaceutically pure or other misleading sales hype are using the same basic ingredients from the same sources. Many are made in factories that are not even GMP certified or FDA acknowledged to be using methods and cleanliness standards meeting suggested Good Manufacturing Practices. Some may be more clean and safe than others but not necessarily effective or containing active ingredients.
Have you ever seen the vitamins that say on the label, we are the cheap synthetic ones? Of course not, they all say natural. What is more natural than rocks, and petroleum? The word natural means nothing as to the source, whether they are man-made, or man altered. So finding a good quality product by reading label and advertising hype does not work. And food sources or those that are from Plant sources or 100% plant sources of nutrients simply cost more than dirt!
So how then can one find effective products that replace the nutrients missing from our foods due to refining, processing, modern farming, etc.?
Ask others who are experiencing good results what brands they use or consult with successful natural health care professionals are two of the best ways to avoid trial and error and years of searching and wasted time and money on ineffective nutrients.
We began NHR over 30 years ago because we found that even then many of the supplement products were inferior and did not produce desired results. We began research and testing of different products, ingredients and manufacturers to find the highest quality and most effective ingredients to provide health professionals and their patients success with our products. We knew if they did not get outstanding results that their patients may return to medical methods. The products they use needed to work even on the most difficult or sensitive people and as rapidly as possible.
This has been the mission of NHR since its vision and inception. To re-nature what has been denatured out of our foods so that the body can continue its normal processes or growth and repairing itself at optimal levels unhindered by nutritional deficiencies. We bring the real thing to consumers so that they don’t get ripped off, and don’t need to go back to drugs. Our clients have found over the years that our products consistently produce the desired health benefits when others do not. We have never advertised! Our only means of staying in business has been referrals from satisfied clients to their friends and colleagues.
Please don’t think you can get something of value for a real low price in this industry. The stuff discount houses sell is worthless and as you read the following articles you may even decide it is dangerous. We formulate and test products and broker ingredients to other large companies who want products that work. We know the highest volume discount pricing and what different grades of products cost. Don’t settle to buy cheap products that at best relieve a guilty conscience from thinking it is not doing what it should for its body. In reality you may be doing it more harm. This is not like buying clothes or tires where a medium quality may just not last as long. This is your life and health. The products either work or they don’t. Some may give minimal results but not enough to keep you optimally healthy or away from drugs and hospitals. Where your life is at stake, don’t waste your money on what is doing no good. Get products that keep your body well nourished and increase your longevity, vitality and youthful feelings.
The products NHR provides have been used by us for decades and proven themselves to be effective and the few truly newly discovered products that we carry have passed our scrutiny, experience and proved to be beyond what is available elsewhere. We don’t bother to compete and carry products that you can get just as effectively elsewhere. We carry the unique and necessary quality supplements that you have hoped to find at the lowest prices.
Carefully read articles on the poor quality and low standards in our supplement industry. Sadly the drug companies and medical industry that have not told us the truth about cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and other ailments still have the power to keep us from regulating and cleaning up the supplement industry so that only effective pure products are sold. The more junk supplements people buy, the more medical care and drugs they still need. You may feel you don’t need the best. But you do need a quality that gives you results. We often carry the best and a lower priced option that is still getting great results.
We have never advertised so all of our business comes from customers who have referred others to us because of the great results they obtained.
Trust the years of experience, industry knowledge and satisfied clients of NHR to be your educated partner in choosing supplements for your family’s health.
Yours for Good Health,
