I am only 25 and generally healthy, but the past couple of years
I have struggled with some unforseeable health concerns. I was
having a difficult time knowing where to buy my
vitamins/supplements. My chiropractor recommended a specific brand,
and I liked them, but they were a little pricey. I had bought a few
things from Swanson in the past, so I decided to compare what I had
been taking with them. The quality was just as good and for about a
third of the price! Couldn't be any better than...

Question: I have been using one of your products for about two
weeks and I do not notice any difference. How long should I use a
product before I will see results? Should I consider using a
different product?Many factors contribute to how well a supplement works. Because of
the differences in makeup, one supplement may prove beneficial for
one of the body's needs and not another. You may have tried a
product a friend or family member loves, but for you, there were no

Question: I placed a tablet in a bowl of water before going to
bed, and it was still whole in the morning! If it did not dissolve
in water, how is it going to do so in the body?While the water test for disintegration may have a small degree of

example that I can think of to illustrate this point involves
holiday cooking. In preparation for holiday dinners, my mom...
