This is the fourth article in two days that is casting aspersions upon vitamins, minerals and herbal products. Granted, some folks don’t have a lick of sense when it comes to ensuring their herbal products are not contra-indicated while they are taking certain meds, but these articles all seem to be geared toward denigrating, and perhaps ultimately moving toward outlawing vitamins and self-determination about one’s own health. Just as I don’t need the feds in my house or bedroom, I don’t need them telling me what to eat or consume.
This is more pseudo science where the researchers look at self selected population rather than doing REAL researcher
with experimental populations that are not self selected.
People with enlarged prostates (self selected) are inclined to experiment with vitamin e and others.

Not only that, but when you compare the very low total of adverse reactions to supplements to that of prescription drugs, you know that there is no reason for the FDA or medical/pharmaceutical industry to worry about safety of supplements until they get their own house in order.
Media driven panic?
It sure seems that the tom-toms are beating a loud boom to the sheeple to not to take vitamins anymore.
I guess there isn’t a bad flu coming this winter.
Have to go after something to stop those tax payers from staying healthy without a doctor.
