AMAZON SELLS FAKE SUPPLEMENTS

The post below is from a colleague on a verified Naturopathic Doctors page.

This is a HUGE issue and has been for years: Amazon selling fake (counterfeit) supplements. Most of the better supplement companies are well aware of it, and some even employ people just for that purpose alone. They also microchip their bottles, so they can easily identify what's theirs, because the fakes are just that convincing. If the manufacturers have a hard time telling the difference, then consumers don't stand a chance.

I always have this discussion with my patients, to only buy from Fullscript (where I prescribe) and not from other sites. Fullscript is a fully validated dispensary which sources only directly from legitimate supplement manufacturers. This could even possibly happen in stores, depending on where they get their stock from.

Please take extreme care with where you get your supplements. Your life and your child's life depend on it.

Great info for the end of the year and into 2024!

For 2023, the contribution limit was $3,050. It's $3200 for 2024.
"FSAs can be used to meet expenses like copayments, prescription medications, menstrual products, dental care, and over-the-counter drugs that may not be covered by an employee’s health plans." And I'll add massage therapy, acupuncure, chiropractic, and NATUROPATHIC DOCTORS (like yours truly). Even supplements (per my Rx) are covered at my dispensary! 😁

"For 2023, the maximum amount that can be carried over to 2024 is $610. In 2024, this rises slightly to $640."

What is A2 milk? Have you heard of it? It's truly a game changer for many people who can't tolerate dairy. Less inflammation. This article is an excellent overview of the differences between "regular" A1 milk and the "newer" (really older) A2 milk.

This milk is on the rise thanks to its tummy-friendly reputation.

California is now the first state to ban four chemicals used in well-known candies and other foods and drinks because of their link to certain health problems.
