Dee, I haven't really researched this but I would warn you that I do not think that Natural News is always an unbiased source. In this case they are pushing the need for methylated vitamins and discuss an interview with Greg Kunin, co-founder of Ola Loa. If you visit the Ola Loa Products site you will see the comment:
"Driven by science not by fads, Ola Loa Products are formulated by nutrition pioneer Richard Kunin, M.D., one of the founders of Antioxidant Therapy. Fifty years of research has led Dr. Kunin to his breakthrough discovery that Methylation is the key to better health, and goes beyond antioxidants. Ola Loa is the world's only product to provide this critical methylation support." I tend to be skeptical of health news sources that are also the only supplier of the technology. And I would not ne surprised if Natural News had a financial tie-in with Ola Loa Products (paid for article = advertising?). I can't say that methylation isn't better but it does not mean that USP is bad IMO. - Steve N ________________________________ From: Dee Fitzpatrick [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, June 05, 2009 6:00 AM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: CS>USP measurement Just asking in case anyone has heard of this. I just got a report from Natural News that the measurement USP is an indication that the product contains cheap ingredients. Has anyone heard of this? I have bought some Pancreatin and this contains this measurement so wondered if I had wasted my money as the report says that this can cause more harm than good, as it means the product is synthetic.
