Most people (particularly in the Western World) have grown-up on
processed / agribusiness non-organic foods. As a result of, and
example of nutritional deficiency, impaired digestive systems (among a
multitude of other health issues) are the norm. This has a
significant effect on our overall health. And, when combined
with "Big Pharma" telling us their drugs will solve health concerns
makes health matters even worse.
SmartBodyz Nutrition respects
commercial and MLM supplement companies for helping bring recognition
to the natural/alternative medicine field. However, we regularly
discover problems with pricing and quality control issues associated
with most commercial and MLM companies:
-
Alternative/Natural Medicine -- Most commercial and MLM
supplement companies do not use pharmaceutical quality
ingredients. Food grade is bought daily on the open
market by most commercial supplement companies looking for the
absolute "bottom dollar" without regard to quality. As a
result, the consumer is fed inferior product containing
unnecessary, binders, fillers, etc.
Many of the companies are known to combine very low amounts of
beneficial nutrients and high amounts of harmful toxic compounds
such as coal tars, arsenic, lead, shellac, etc. Food
grade is their preferred choice since they spend most of their
budget on advertising and marketing. They cannot offer you
quality product while spending thousands to millions of dollars on
marketing and advertising.
-
Therapeutic Amounts --
Ingesting Nutritional Supplements in therapeutic amounts is
paramount to your health -- Commercial products such
as Theragran, Centrum, One-A-Day, GNC,
Vitamin Shoppe, and more, are very expensive on a cost-per-gram
basis. In addition, multi-level companies such as Mannatech,
Amway, Stanley, New Vision, etcetera, are expensive on a
cost-per-gram basis. Multi-level companies have to be able
to pay many people in their down-lines ... and, they do it by
charging more for their products. As a result, people who
ingest these products are typically eating a multiple number of
nutrients that are therapeutically useless.

Commercial Varieties use "Short-Change Tactic" --
You are not getting the optimum amounts your body needs of all
the micro-nutrients for the same price you pay for high
quality products. Most commercial varieties do not base
their formulas on solid scientific evidence. One aspect of high quality is a process used in manufacturing called
High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) -- very
clean supplements. Independent laboratory analyses of a
product line is of valuable consideration. For more information on how commercial and
multi-level companies operate, click

Micro-nutrients (vitamins and such) which are
taken per recommendations drawn from valid scientific
studies (in therapeutic amounts), are designed to support strong immune systems and high energy
levels. Most scientific studies use pharmaceutical
grade/quality when evaluating/testing supplements -- the standard by which quality companies abide.
As a sad side-note, most people buy/consume inferior food grade product (grocery store, drug store, and health food store varieties).
