As you know the vitamin/supplement industry rakes in around 10 billion in profit, and pharmaceutical companies control almost all of it. They don't have to spend money on getting them approved or doing trials to prove the safety - it's pure profit.
That makes sense to me. Corinthian, would you care to provide the source of your information? I am going to build a web site.
Sales for synthetic vitamins and drugs involve a 3500% profit margin while whole food supplements are only marked up 20 to 50%.
But the question is, "Are synthetic supplements good for you?"
Could the industry profits on sales of synthetic vitamins be blinding them to the truth of credible research that says they are harmful and even lethal? Synthetic vitamins are in the majority of today’s nutritional products and are found in enriched breads and flours and other foodstuffs.
