Thanks for the ping.
I met a gal about my age, about 60, who had really full hair, which mine is starting to thin. I asked her if she used anything special. She told me GNC for woman, hair, skin and nails. I bought some.
I called GNC, the vitamin company to see where their ingredients come from. He said a lot of the ingredients like the vitamins were chemically made by them. So I asked about one of the other ingredients, he didn’t know where it came from but said he would get back with me.
I just named one ingredient off the bottle, horsetail rush herb extract, (Equisetum arvense).
Three hours later he called me back, it is from China.
Am wondering here how the FDA grades this. LOL
Hellooooooooooooo FDA.
system is broken
we are on our own
It’s just so sad that much of the stuff we buy from China are things we can grow here ourselves instead of paying subsidies to farmers.
I know a lot of herbs are grown in China and for centuries they were ahead of the world on how to properly use herbs for good health. There is one company that produces some good quality chinese herb combo's == they are very expensive... another company has knockoffs of the good quality chinese herbs ... but I digress, horsetail isn't a Chinese herb, just got me to thinking about them...
