If you must know, I have written about drug companies and the irresponsible behavior they demonstrate.
Answer: This is where you should be focused instead of bashing nutritional companies! I would agree that there are some that do rip people off and I could name them easily, but I am not here to bash them, just provid people with an economical product that works!
When it comes to what I put in my body, I would rather have less than too much, because too much can make a person sick. It is irresponsible to market a product, any product that is consumed into the body without proper drug interaction warnings.
Answer: As stated in the corporate web site, you should always consult your doctor to see if there may be any interactions with drugs! Now, IF people want to simply print off the ingredients list, here is the link from the corporate web site, had you looked> http://www.pagekast.com/projects/GBG/supplemental-facts.pdf
I have not slandered anyone. I have written my opinion.
Answer: Opinions NOT based on facts can be seen as slander, and if you do not know that, it is time for a wake up call, especially in a PUBLIC FORUM that can be viewed by not only AdLandPro people, but anyone searching on the net!
I've been writing about businesses and scams for many years, and what qualifies me as an expert is pretty basic; research and common sense. I've busted Internet marketing scams, banking scams, online check scams, and I have had many contacts with the FTC regarding such matters.
Answer: That is fine as long as it is based on facts that you have gathered, not just opinions! Opinions are as bad as assumptions based on how you feel rather than factual data gathered. It kind of goes hand in hand with the saying, think before you speak, correct?
I never once even suggested that GBG was doing anything illegal. Not once. But legal and ethical are not synonomous, and just because a person is a Christian does not make his business a Christian business, nor does it make it endorsed by God. As far as I am aware, God does not do product endorsments. That is the marketing practice I have a problem with. A Christian business should be related to religious material, not a nutritional drink, diet pills, or anything else that has nothing to do with religion.
Answer: Now, you are opening up a can of worms! Yes, the owner is very religious and his beliefs are in line with God's! He feels that people should get real value, not just HYPE that most companies promote! There is NO HYPE here, just facts and a very economical product with an unconditional guarantee! God did state that herbs are for man's healing, so what is wrong with that picture? I am not going to go any further with this except to say, he is one of the most giving owners if a company I have ever been associated with!
It is true, I have no degree in nutrition. I am a health conscious person and mother, who reads labels, and researches products for the best interest of my family. I have a close friend who is also my pharmacist, and I ask him about everything before making a purchase, and I trust his word. I showed him that label, and he told me that the amounts of the ingredients could be harmful to some people, and that is what I wrote. And, he is not antiquated, as you claim the USRDA is.
Answer: Just so you know, both doctors and pharmacists are NOT required to be schooled in nutrition! He is partially correct provided the product uses poor quality nutrients as MANY do! By him just looking at the list and not looking at HOW the product is formulated, is short sited! I have already explained this before, so no need to go into it again! If you want to put your trust in a pharmacist, good luck! You would be a lot further ahead if you placed your trust in a Nutritionist instead, an Herbalist, or possibly a Naturopathic doctor! and YES, the USRDA requirements were written back in the 1940's, have not been updated, so again tell me that they are NOT Antiquated!
The site I visited should have corporate information on it if it is being used by those marketing the product for the corporation. Period.
Answer: Like I said before and you got my link too, what more do you need?
I do not wish to further this agrument with you. Go ahead and tell the boss about me; I don't care. I've been doing this long enough to know what slander and lible are, and how not to get myself involved in any legal trouble. I am a reporter, not a gossip monger. If you don't like what I write, don't read it.
Answer: The ONLY reason that I am responding to your posts is due to the fact that many people read this and they need ALL the facts, not just OPINIONS!!!
I never said GBG was a scam, just that it was pretty low to tout it as a Christian business opportunity.
So what if the excess is eliminated? What a waste of money to put a portion of your vitamins in the toilet.
LOL, you are hilarious!!! Such a waste for ONLY $19.95 / month??? So, if today I use only 85% of it, and tomorrow I use 98% of it, the reality here is I would rather have more than not enough on certain days when needed...This is why I asked for your credentials! The rest is history! I will simply let the people here decide what to believe and what not to believe. I rest my case!
