Garbage in 2010 -Roger MasonToday let's look at the nutritional supplement garbage that is being sold this year (in no particular order). 90% of the natural health industry, unfortunately, is made up of whores, liars, thieves, criminals, charlatans, and psychopaths, to put it politely. These people actually INVENT supple-ments that have no value, and put out lots of stories and publicity behind them, so the public believes it. It's always about money of course. They make used car dealers look good.RESVERATROL is the biggest scam going. Instead of feeding grape skins to pigs they are now being sold to people at high prices. There is no science at all behind this, but there is endless advertising. The claims get more outrageous every year. Worthless. UBIQUINOL is junk. Real Japanese coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) costs about $800 a kilogram and you need at least 100 mg a day. Skin creams or toothpaste need at least 0.5% or more clearly stated on the label. People who sell you 10 mg or 30 mg CoQ10 capsules are criminals. Compan-ies that don't state the percent of CoQ10 are crooks. Ubiquinol is not CoQ10, is unstable, has no shelf life, and no reputable company will sell it. All those newsletter doctors are crooks. CHONDROITIN is another massive scam. Chondroitin has no value, as it cannot be absorbed by the intestines. If a surgeon injects USP chondroitin into your aging joints it will have benefits, but not orally. No surgeons do this though.
COLLOIDAL MINERALS just won't die either. This is just clay extract without any minerals in it. All Your Minerals® has 20 elements in the amounts you need.
BEE PRODUCTS have been around since Abe Lincoln ran the country. If it comes from a bee don't buy it. Bee pollen, bee propolis, bee jelly, bee whatever...
MACA ROOT is a barely edible turnip fed to livestock in South America. Useless. Selling it as "Peruvian ginseng" should result in a substantial prison sentence. WEIGHT LOSS PRODUCTS like hoodia cactus are all worthless. None of them work or obesity would be cured. Billions of dollars every year wasted on this stuff. You lose weight by making better food choices; diet, exercise, and lifestyle will keep you slim and healthy. 7-KETO DHEA is another scam. If you prove your DHEA level is low just take regular, plain, MALE SEXUAL ENHANCEMENT products. Any man who buys these needs psychiatric care. Do you really think you’ll regain your sexual potency by taking some $39.95 OTC pill? Good sex depends on GOOD HEALTH and good relationship. FEMALE SEXUAL ENHANCEMENT products. See the above. Good health, good relationship, and good psychological and emotional balance are the keys here. CMO or cetyl myristoleate has no value for your arthritis. Why does something like this keep selling decade after decade? How stupid are people anyway? Read the article Treating Bone & Joint Problems Naturally. HOMEOPATHIC remedies contain no actual ingredients whatsoever. That's a scientific fact, and readily admitted to by proponents of homeopathy. These delusional fools have had over 100 years to prove their case and have failed miserably. You buy little bottles of plain water at fancy prices. What a deal! VITAMIN C MEGADOSES will make your blood acidic and ruin your health. Take no more than 250 mg of vitamin C, which is 400% of what you need. Linus Pauling was a well meaning, but very misguided person. The road to Hell is paved with such good intentions. Overdoses of anything are harmful including oxygen, sun, food, water, fun, sex, or religion.
ARGININE is still popular after all these years. In the past 20 years there are no published studies showing any value whatsoever for taking arginine supplements. All the “studies” are TONGKAT ALI is another testosterone raising scam. Anyone who advocates this should be shot in the public square. Yes, people really are that stupid to buy things like this. Please read my book Testosterone Is Your Friend- A Book for Men and Women. RED RICE YEAST is not the way to lower your cholesterol. Please read my book Lower Chol-esterol Without Drugs. DIET is far more important than supplements here. This has almost dis-appeared in 2010 fortunately. WHEY PROTEIN is almost always full of indigestible lactose. Whey is a waste product from cheese manufacturing. Americans already eat TWICE the protein they need in the first place. A low protein diet is proven to promote health and longevity. High protein diets ruin your kidneys. BILBERRY has no value at all for vision- or anything else for that matter.
VITAMIN D OVERDOSES over 1,200 IU. The RDA is only 400 IU, we recommend
CANOLA OIL was never meant for human consumption and comes from rapeseed. There are no "canola" plants. This contains toxic erucic acid. Do not use canola oil.
There are only 20 proven permanent endogenous (in your body and/or your daily food) supple-ments recommended in my books. They include beta glucan, CoQ10, beta-sitosterol, lipoic acid, NAC, PS, ALC, vitamin D, vitamin E, beta carotene, a complete vitamin and mineral supple-ment, flax oil, acidophilus, FOS, quercetin, soy isoflavones, DIM, glutamine, and glucosamine.
