So life runs us ragged and it becomes apparent there is a need for some extra vitamins in the daily hustle and routine. So, drive to your favorite health food store or big box chain and get a mega-vitamin and some extras C's to fight off an office cold or back to school sniffles.
Ever wonder why your urine is florescent yellow??? EXCIPIENTS ...
What are excipients? Excipients are binders, fillers and “glues” that are typically non-nutritive substances in nutritional products. These substances often test toxic.
Would you want to consume anything that is not nutritive?
I believe it is unnecessary to take nutritional products which have questionable, potentially toxic, non-nutritive excipients.
Please note: tablets ALWAYS contain excipients (that is how they are made; they cannot be made without them); therefore, it is wisest to especially avoid nutritional products as tablets.
Just a few examples of questionable excipients commonly found in nutritional products:
Magnesium stearate - a cheap lubricating agent; research shows it to be immune-compromising
Methyl paraben - a benzoate family member; a known cancer-causing agent
Microcrystalline cellulose - a cheap filler
Silicon dioxide - a cheap flowing agent (common sand)
Natural flavors - an AKA for MSG (monosodium glutamate), a well known neurotoxic agent
Methacrylic copolymer - methacrylic acid, a component of the methacrylic acid copolymer, has been reported to act as a teratogen in rat embryo cultures.
Triethyl citrate - a plasticizer
Titanium dioxide - used for color; liver toxic
Corn starch - typically from cheap GMO corn; can invoke allergic responses
Talcum Powder - a common excipient rarely not listed on product labels; a suspected carcinogen.
