[QUOTE="DriveInDriveOut, post: 1083446, member: 44954"] I agree that many doctors are far too cozy with pharmaceutical reps (although they hand out samples like candy and at times my doc has given me 2-3 months worth of medicine for free). However in terms of nutritional supplements, most are not regulated by the FDA. Be careful. Do your research on the brands you are buying because often they come from china or some sub-par manufacturing facility. There have been some studies showing trace levels of things you don't want to be popping into your system; and in better case scenarios you're not actually getting the amounts (or far more of the amounts) that you think you are getting.
