WATCH THE PILLS YOU TAKE.  ALTERNATIVES MEDICINES AND HERBS ARE NOT REGULATED BY THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION, BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT DRUGS.  LABELS MUST BE TRUTHFUL, BUT THAT DOES NOT INSURE THE SAFETY OF THE SUPPLEMENT FOR YOU.

GARY NULL, A HEALTH GURU, FILED A LAWSUIT AGAINST A MANUFACTURER OF A SUPPLEMENT HE WAS TAKING CALLED "ULTIMATE POWER MEAL."  HE CLAIMED IT CAUSED KIDNEY DAMAGE ,FATIGUE AND BODY PAIN, BECAUSE THE VITAMIN "D" WAS AN EXCESSIVE DOSE.

REMEMBER EPHEDRA, AN HERBAL MEDICINE USED IN CHINESE MEDICINE FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS?  MANY TOOK IT IN THE BELIEF THAT IT WAS NATURAL AND SAFE, BUT IT WAS LINKED TO OVER 100 DEATHS.

BUY YOUR SUPPLEMENTS AT A DRUG STORE, A REPUTABLE HEALTH FOOD STORE OR MAIL ORDER ORGANIZATION.

ASK YOUR PHARMACIST OR "WHEN IN DOUBT, SPIT IT OUT."
