The Truth About Vitamin Supplements

Check your vitamin labels.  Do they contain Magnesium Stearate or Stearic Acid? Studies by the University of Texas Health Science Center and the East Carolina University School of Medicine reveal that these toxic excipients cause a rapid collapse of T-cell membrane function and cell death; therefore suppressing the immune system. (Immunology, 1990, Jul.)

It is estimated that 90% of the vitamin and mineral products consumed today contain stearates.  Stearates are used as binders in tablets and in the processing of gelatin capsules.  Consumers often take handfuls of capsules and tablets to get vitamins, minerals and other key nutrients from supplements that contain stearates, and instead, in reality, get a powerful immune suppressive treatment.

For more information on this topic and copies of the above-quoted studies as well as other studies and warnings concerning stearates, send an email to service@qnlabs.com.  Quantum Nutrition Labs' nutritional supplements are 100% free of toxic excipients, including magnesium stearate or stearic acid.

"The public must be more aware of nutritional products that initially bring a good vitamin or mineral but hurt you in other ways." (Dr. Eduardo Sanchez, Commissioner - Texas Department of Health, speaking before the Texas Strategic Health Partnership, University of Texas, Sept. 25, 2003)

Widespread Cheating

The FDA reports widespread cheating in the supplement industry.  At Quantum Nutrition Labs, the belief is that only careful testing of each batch and source of herbal ingredients will guarantee the most premium quality.  Recently when the QNL laboratory tested one source of asparagus extract being offered by a new supplier, it was discovered that 90% of it was hay!  Just cheap hay!  Needless to say, this supplier was not used.

Most retailers and distributors of vitamin supplements have no way to test their products to see if what is on the label is actually in the bottle.  Therefore, they are not aware of the toxicity of the products they are selling and mistakenly claim 100% purity for their products.
