Saturday, February 18, 2012 by Customer Reviews and Stories

Where do I begin!!?? I shopped for years at an expensive health food store near where I live.

The products are top notch, the shipping is amazingly fast and I LOVE being able to read actual customer reviews before purchasing... Something you definitely don't get from a store.

Swanson Saved My Sanity

Saturday, February 18, 2012 by Customer Reviews and Stories

It all started the year after I graduated high school, I was mostly trouble free in the health department until then. I was stricken with horrible skin, dozens of red marks and horrible acne in particular during my senior year of high school, which caused me an immense amount of personal pain, and social anxiety. I resorted to a radical solution for my problem, which came in the form of Accutane. Accutane is a very powerful acne drug, with more than a handful of major possible side effects. I...

Friday, February 10, 2012 by Kayla M

I don’t cook. I don’t bake. And I don’t try new foods. So how I wound up on the team that makes...Read More »

Sunday, February 5, 2012 by Tara Kessler

TaraShortly after I started working at Swanson Health Products (SHP), my team participated in an assessment that evaluated communication tendencies based on personality.

Go Crazy for Cranberries

Thursday, November 24, 2011 by Kayla M

And I’m not talking about the kind of cranberries that come in a jellied glob, with the rings from the tin can still visible. I mean real cranberries – the fresh ones, from the grocery store’s produce aisle.

I just don’t love the taste of the small, plump, red berries – I also love how healthy cranberries are. Did you know that cranberries are on the list of...Read More »
