Labels can be misleading…

How trusting are you of labels on vitamin bottles? Do you even bother to read the ingredient label? If you do, don’t be fooled by what you read. Sometimes it’s what we don’t see, what is left unsaid, that is the most important.

Did you know that federal law does not require vitamins and supplements to be proven safe by the FDA before marketed? And why should this matter to you? Well, without proper regulation, without standards, there is no certainty about what you are ingesting.

The timing couldn’t be better, as I leave tomorrow to attend USANA’S International Convention, where they will be making a major announcement that will change the nutritional supplement industry. They are proclaiming a new era of nutritional science, and I am beaming with excitement to learn of their new innovation.

I can’t wait to share with you what I learn. You may notice that I talk a lot about USANA, because it is a nutritional product I trust. As you will read in the article though, I am not promoting any company or product. Rather, I am educating on the importance of awareness, because with awareness, you can make an informed choice, backed by knowledge. Knowledge is power. I want to empower you with knowledge, so you can choose what is best for you, whether that be vitamins, healthy foods, exercise, etc. Your health depends on it, and that is of the utmost importance.

In good health and trusty vitamins!
