Okay, not sure if this was answered or not so if no one shoots me down it would be cool. Dont want to start a new thread on it.

What is the consensus on these Swanson whole food vitamins?

Also what is recommended for additional vitamin B complex? Been using Now B-50 for years, really helps when I feel like a heart attack especially after drinking like a Sailor:

I was reading about how the B12 they put in multivitamins, cyanocobalamin, breaks down as cyanide in your body.

There is good cyanide and bad cyanide. Organic cyanide is actually very good for you, and in my view essential to healthy lives for mammals. In nature there's a lot of Vitamin B-17 in grasses and seeds, so when you get domesticated animals and animals in zoos their chances of getting cancer are high (since they have diets lacking in Vitamin B-17), while while in nature cancer in animals is almost non-existent.

I eat apricot kernels all the time to get Vitamin B-17 (cure/prevention of cancer.) These have high levels of organic cyanide in them, to where you can literally taste the cyanide, but I never get sick, though it just tastes horrible!

G. Edward Griffin (Creature From Jekyll Island) wrote a book and made a documentary on this issue in the 70s.


Cyanide is also part of Vitamin B-12, but again it's in an organic form, so it's safe.

Think of it this way: Sodium (Na) is highly combustible in water, and Chlorine (Cl) is a poisonous gas, but when together, they form salt, which is safe/essential to life.

I suggest them since I believe they helped me. I could be wrong. I do a lot of other things like drinking a tablespoon of Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar with every meal, taking Chlorella, raw honey, probiotics, milk thistle/dandelion root (detox/liver), and cayenne. I also take a bunch of other stuff if certain problems arise, so I have a large stock of different things for different issues. I think one of the biggest things you can do is cutting out wheat completely out of the diet, and it can help anyone with their health immensely if they do this, and eliminate a LOT of weight (I still make/eat pizza, bread, noodles, soy sauce, and so forth without wheat, and it tastes just as good if not better.)

With this alternative medicine stuff there is no true "authority". You literally have to try it yourself and try to be as objective as possible. Vitamins/supplements/detox/elimination diets can take up to 4 months (usually less) before they start working, so you have to be patient. The most important part is being objective. I literally have to believe it wont work on purpose so I don't fall into the placebo effect like many people do. I've tested many vitamins/supplements on myself and some work, some don't (for me at least.) Part of this journey is figuring it out on your own.

Following a consensus isn't always a good path, since if you did, you wouldn't be following alternative medicine in the first place.

i always figured the basic idea of nutrition was to build a healthy compost pile - in your stomach.

in my case that means, 8 to 12 fruits & vegetables a day, anywhere from 2 to 4 sources of protein at lunch.

+ exercise to burn it off. swimming in my case.

i take multi-vitamins too.


what i would like to learn about multi-vitamins - i alternate between taking the Cheap-o store brand, and "Simply One" for men, which has small amounts of stimulants - green tea, gingko biloba, etc.

i could swear i notice a difference between the Cheap-o vitamins and the Simply One vitamins.

in any case it's good to compare notes - because i believe you guys more than the allopathic's (conventional vaccine&drug-promoting American doctors etc.)

bump! didn't see this thread at the time, and it just so happens I'm nearing the bottom of a bottle of cheap rum Kirkland (Costco) "Daily Multi" (with "Compare to Bacardi Centrum" touted on the bottle ).

I had the impression before that in most cases, the store-brand of these supplements came from the same mftr's factory as the big-brands, and with store-brands you're just cutting out paying big-brands' image/advertising costs; so I always opted for the store/generic brands. For example, I also have a big bottle of Kirkland ibuprofen around, not Advil/etc, same reason. Not good I guess?

why is it I suspect you often hear, "OH! YOU STINK!" when you're around others?

1 hr podcast re the harmful additives in supplement pills. I haven't listened but it's in my queue, as I really like this doc.

I recall hearing past supplement gurus mention that when authentic supplement (esp organic) companies get successful, they get bought by Big-Pharma, and the quality of the products drops, harmfulness rises.
