Re: vitamins
Joan, for what it's worth, I just received the following on a
dietitians' listserv. I like "Environmental Nutrition."
==================
According to the newsletter Environmental Nutrition, which is quite
sound, the following companies were judged to be reliable: Celestial
Seasonings, Eclectic Institute, Gaia Herbs, Herb Pharm, Indena,
Lichtwer Pharma, Nature's Herbs (TwinLab), Nature's Way, Pharmaton,
Warner-Lambert, Whitehall-Robins (American Home Products). For
Vitamin/Mineral supplements, they like Centrum and Theragram & Dr. Art
Ulene's.
