: Does anyone know where I can find any info on how users rate the different supplements on the market (i.e. some kind of survey). Also does anyone know where to find unbiased opinions of the different supplement companies (I know "Amerifit" and "Weider" are junk and "EAS" and "Champion Nutrition" are good, but what about all the others out there?). Bill Phillips used to select products and had them tested in an independent lab and then noted the results in his monthly newsletter (this was before MM2000), but he doesn't seem to get into it any more (I guess you don't want to state bad facts about a company who wants to pay you advertising money). Any info would help!
~~~~~~~~~~to be perfectly honest with you, there are a few "up and up" companies out there, but they are difficult to find. Unfortunately, you do get what you pay for most of the time. I have been buying products from a company called "Shaklee" for the past few years, and have gone off of them for financial reasons quite a few times. I am being completely honest when I say this, but Shaklee is the best. If you can find a local distributer, go for it. If not, i can hook you up with my distributer. What I love about Shaklee is that first of all they don't give into fads, second they give you unbiased proof and try to educate you to make your own decision re. supplements. e mail me @ [email protected] if you need help. I understand what you are going through. I have searched for other companies and keep going back!!!!! Good Luck. Let me know if I can help.~~~amity
