HS Activa Supplements
You should consider this when buying food supplements!
You, as a customer, are overrun by a wide variety of offers these days. We have to say that the production of dietary supplements has now become very easy and the market is downright inundated with products. As a consumer, you are probably wondering:
What is the right product?
Of course, every company claims that their products are the best.
On this page, we would like to do some educational work. We give you some points out what you should pay attention to when buying dietary supplements.
✓ Dosage: As a dietary supplement manufacturer, we are very often bound by guidelines. This means that we are only allowed to add a limited amount of an ingredient (e.g., vitamin C) to a product. You should make sure that the products are based on the upper limits.
✓ Bioavailability: The human body absorbs the various vitamins or minerals differently. For example, there are many different compounds in the field of magnesium. The human body cannot absorb magnesium oxide as well as magnesium citrate, for example. Since magnesium oxide is much cheaper to buy, many manufacturers (unfortunately) use magnesium oxide...
✓ (Unnecessary) additives: Especially with powders that you have to drink, many flavour enhancers or artificial sugars are processed.
✓ Auxiliary materials and release agents: Auxiliary materials are often used in the production of capsules or tablets, as this simplifies production. These auxiliary materials then also end up in the product. For example, magnesium stearate (magnesium salts of fatty acids), glycerine ...
✓ Origin of the ingredients: We recommend that you pay attention to the origin. We only have one planet, and we should protect it as best we can. That is why we always pay attention to the organic quality of our products.
Summary:
✓ It is worth taking a look at the ingredients of every product. Should a website not make this public on the site, you should stay away from it.
✓ Another very good indicator is the price: If a product is significantly cheaper than a comparable one, this is an indication of cheap ingredients (see bioavailability and release agents)
✓ You only have one health. Please pay attention and don't save at the wrong end!
