too include of course those of you in any country, that cares to answer.

Are you folks / does your country(s) follow all the take this/do that /eat this / avoid that, band wagon that we here in America seem to?

IMO we have such a lucrative ad world that [they] pitch just about any & everything , and we seemingly buy into it . In global opinion, are we being taken for a ride?

Most of us are not doctors, pharmacist , etc. Yet some of us have developed problems, minor to serious, and we are desperate find relief from them. Are we the only ones reaching for straws , in our attempt ?

Our air-ways are filled with adds to sell us every damn thing. But we have no real way of knowing what is fact & what is fiction, without doing our own individual research . And lets face it that can be weak at best, many factors enter into it.

I have come to the conclusion that there are no real cures..from the doctors or the flim-flam man.

Again, just wondering how the rest of the world feels about it all???????

Too all who have an answer & or opinion, and care to post it....Thank You.
 

I never use any products advertised on TV, radio or internet. When my doctor or pharmacist suggests
something I research it before ordering or using.
When it comes to food or drink, my motto is "everything in moderation" which is how I have come
to be celebrating my 88th birthday to-day.
 
I am in this country and have a daughter who has been a pharmacist for 25 years. She has to take CE courses each year to keep her license. I always run things by her because she always has the answer or will research for me. My kidney specialists wanted me to start 2000 units of Vitamin D as mine was extremely low. She advised me to use Nature Made as they were the best brand for supplements. She and my primary doctor are not much for adding supplements to the diet except for situations like mine. So I check with them before I start something new. Sorry to hijack your thread asking for comments from other countries. All of us here do not march to the same tune!

We all live different lives and have different paths. We move in and out of each others lives as we need to.
