Hmmmmm, I didn't know that!

Not only are Multiple Vitamins of no benefit, they can sometimes increase the risks of disease. We know Vitamin E increases the risks of heart disease and prostate cancer. B-complex vitamins will increase the risks of heart disease.
Vitamin A increases the incidence of lung cancer, especially in smokers. There are no medical studies that show, beyond a reasonable doubt, that vitamins improve health.
 
Herbal cholesterol lowering products are neither safe nor effective. Products like Red Yeast Rice may contain toxic contaminants. The only medications that have PROVEN benefits in lowering heart attack and stroke risks are STATINS.
No other prescription cholesterol products have any PROVEN benefits and these include ZETIA, WELCHOL, NIASPAN (niacin), FENOFIBRATES (Tricor, Trilipix)
 
The higher the Body Mass Index (BMI), the higher the risks of colon polyps and cancer.
 
An Aspirin or NSAID (Advil) daily can reduce the incidence of colon polyps. Please check with your doctor as these drugs may interact adversely with other medications.
 
The risks of heart disease in diabetics are related more to Hypertension, High Cholesterol and lack of Physical Activity than it is to poorly controlled glucose levels.
 
According to Consumer Reports, 25% of FISH species are mislabeled (remember the grouper shortage a few years ago?)
 
It is not unusual to “hurt” after beginning an exercise program (You are probable using muscles you haven’t used in years-not unlike being sore after throwing a baseball the first time the first warm spring day)
 
Vitamin and Herbal supplements, for the most part are not regulated by the FDA and have limited, if any, proven medical benefits. Consumers spend over $27,000,000,000/year looking for alternative routes to health.
