Anybody have any thoughts, opinions
Two thoughts on this topic. First, if you're truly interested in any of these TV type programs, try EBAY. The prices are about 50% of the original retail price. Secondly, that "Vitamin guy" makes more sense than most American trained MDs. He actually realizes the important of proper nutrition. The next MD that I speak with that can actually spell "ANTIOXIDANT" will be the FIRST!!!

Bright, you're right on target. KT should be the Head of the AMA, IMO.
Simply one man's opinion after spending the past 48 years in healthcare.
Texas, you are indeed a fortunate individual that has found an enlightened Clinician. One that actually realizes that there just might be some utility in supplementing your diet. Nice goin!!

FM - ....those people are successful because it's easy to make people buy the hype when the promise is financial freedom...
if it sounds too good to be true and they are promising you riches you should likely walk away.
We do "Rust" from the inside. A good analogy would be to simply cut open an apple & leave it exposed for an hour or so. That's precisely what happens to our organs if we don't properly supplement our diets.
Way off topic, but....
Do you really think that is a good analogy?
If you cut a person in half, yep their body will decompose very quickly. But living bodies have a natural defense and rebuilding system. The analogy is very, very flawed.
I do believe we should eat healthy, a wide variety of good foods, but I'm not too convinced about supplements. Some of the research has shown that supplements are detrimental. The logic goes like this:
A) It is observed that people who eat a lot of carrots benefit in some ways. Carrots are high in beta-carotene.
B) So the pro-supplement people say - 'here, take this beta-carotene supplement'.
But, that does not take into account the fiber, and dozens of other components in carrots that may be needed in balance to achieve those health benefits. In some cases, the presence of ONE of those components will shut down the bodies uptake of the related components, sensing that it is already getting plenty based on the presence of one form of it. So, in a convoluted way, the supplement can decrease the total uptake of the desired nutrients.
And in some cases, the processing required to isolate the desired ingredient results in high levels of other non-desirable 'stuff'. Weren't some calcium supplements found to have high levels of heavy metals in them?
It's not nice to fool Mother Nature.
Eat a variety of good food, and avoid the supplements, IMO.

Do I believe what they are telling me? Yes....I do believe it. You CAN make money in the stock market and with options , but you HAVE to be educated. Not very many people are willing to do this. They aren't willing to take the time to learn...they are willing to shell out the money.... SO that eliminates the majority of people out there. And you have to be reasonably intelligent to understand everything. It gets pretty deep. Like anything in life, it takes commitment and perseverence. Not many out there willing to do this... everyone wants the easy road....
Okay, we bit. Here is what we discovered at Investools Seminar.
PROS: The first week I made 2 trades and made $1600. Not too bad. So yes, this system really does work.
CONS: They want to upsell MORE education. ... And the education is EXPENSIVE. They wanted me to go into debt on a credit card to purchase more education. "You can earn money while you are learning and help to pay off your card."
Disagree entirely. The stock market tends to go up. A monkey and a dart board has a better than 50/50 chance of making money in the stock market. IF he paid a lot of money for that dart board though, that's going to make it tough to come out ahead.You CAN make money in the stock market and with options , but you HAVE to be educated.
It does take education. And when I was talking about the "easy way", Brewer, I was talking about the people who want to have the picks handed to them on a silver platter without undestanding anything about what they are doing. Everyone wants free money without having to put in some effort to get it. So how is YOUR education working for you?!
