Choose
supplements that are nature
identical. This means that the ingredients that
make up the supplement are formulated in the exact same ratios found in
nature. For example, a weight loss shake that contains
calcium, which most do, should contain a certain amount of magnesium as
well. Why? Because magnesium is required by your
body before it can absorb calcium. Make sure to ask the
manufacturer if the products are nature identical.
Choose
supplements that are cold
processed. If you have taken vitamins or pills
of any kind in the past then you have noticed that each little vitamin
is
basically a capsule that houses the "good stuff". To save
money, some
companies simply bake their vitamins in order to seal
the capsule. The bad news is that high levels of heat
will destroy much of the
nutritional value of the vitamin.
Other companies
use very low heat, if any, to seal their vitamins. This is
called "cold processing" and it conserves the vitamins nutrition.
Companies
who create their natural weight loss supplements to be nature identical
and use cold processing, generally produce products of higher quality.
These are just two of the many
things to consider when purchasing supplements.
